Create Redirect Session


Developer Preview

This API is subject to change. Bug fixes and new features will be released based on developer feedback throughout the preview period.

Creates a URL for redirecting a visitor from an external client site to a Wix page for Wix-managed functionality.

The Create Redirect Session endpoint enables your external Wix Headless client site, built on any platform, to integrate Wix-managed frontend functionality for specific processes. For example, your site can temporarily redirect a visitor to Wix for authentication, or for a checkout process for a bookings, eCommerce, events, or paid plans transaction.

To initiate a redirect session:

  1. Call Create Redirect Session with the details required for Wix to take care of one specific process (for example, authentication or a bookings checkout). Provide one or more callback URLs, so Wix can redirect the user back to your site as appropriate when the process is over.
  2. Redirect your visitor to the URL provided in the response. This URL includes query parameters informing Wix where to redirect the visitor back to on your external site.
  3. Make sure the pages at the callback URLs you provided take care of the next stages in your visitor flow.
