The Wix Account Invites API enables you to invite individuals to join your Wix account as team members, so you can expand your team and delegate account responsibilities efficiently. With this API, you can send email invitations, granting new team members specific roles and access privileges within your account.

The account invite lifecycle outlines the stages involved in sending, managing, and accepting invitations for individuals to become team members in a Wix account.
- Invite created: When Create Invite is called, an email invitation is created and sent to each invitee.
- Invitee receives email: The invitee receives the invite email.
- Invitee responds to invite: The invitee can take one of the following actions:
- Accept the invite by following the link in the email, provided the invite is still valid (i.e., it is not expired or previously been used).
- Ignore the invite until it expires.
- Role assigned: When an invitee accepts, they are assigned the role specified in the invite.
- Account: A collection of Wix assets, including sites, managed by one or more Wix users.
- Asset: Everything within an account, including sites, domains, custom templates, and payment and billing info. Sometimes referred to as resource.
- Assignment: The pairing of a Wix user's access to an asset and their assigned role. For example, Sally has access to the XYZ site owned by Jennifer with a website manager role, and Alice has access to Selena’s Wix account with a co-owner role.
- Policy: See Role below.
- Role: A defined type of access that an identity should have on a specific site or account. Wix provides several predefined roles, such as co-owner, website manager, and website designer. Account owners and co-owners can also define their own custom roles.
- Team member: A Wix user that has been added to an account, with access to one or more sites and other assets. One Wix user can be a team member of multiple accounts.
