About the Categories API
The Categories API allows users to get and query blog categories. Categories allow readers to sort blog posts into different topics covered on a site. This improves navigation which makes it easier for users to find relevant content.
There can be up to 100 categories per language on a blog, and up to 10 categories per post. Categories appear in the Category Menu in the order they were created.
With the Wix Categories API, you can:
- List, create, update, and delete categories.
- Retrieve categories by their slug.
- Query categories based on specific criteria.
- Enable users to organize and categorize content efficiently.
