createMember( )

Creates a site member.

After creation, you can use the sendSetPasswordEmail() function in the Members Authentication API to email the member with a link to set their password. The member can log in to the site once they set their password for the first time.

Note: When creating multiple members, set your requests at least 1 second apart to keep below rate limits.

Authentication
  • When developing websites or building an app with Blocks, this method may require elevated permissions, depending on the identity of the user calling it and the calling user’s permissions.
  • When building apps without Blocks or for headless projects, you can only call this method directly when authenticated as a Wix app or Wix user identity. When authenticated as a different identity, you can call this method using elevation.
  • Elevation permits users to call methods they typically cannot access. Therefore, you should only use it intentionally and securely.
