About the App Installation API

Note: Only logged-in Wix users or API key admins can use this API.

The Wix App Installation API allows you to install and uninstall Wix apps on a tenant, which can be either a Wix site or account.

With the Wix App Installation API, you can:

  • Install and uninstall apps on a tenant, either individually or in bulk.
  • Install apps by providing app details or using a share url.
  • Check whether an app can be installed on a tenant.

  • Tenant: The target environment for the app installation. This can be a Wix site or account.
  • Share URL: A unique URL used to install an app on a tenant.
  • App Token: A signed access token of the user and the app instance.
  • App ID: Unique ID that identifies an app in Wix.
