createGalleryItem( )

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 media item in a specified gallery.

The createGalleryItem() function returns a Promise that resolves to a newly-created gallery item after it has successfully been created.

Important: When creating image items in your gallery, the images must be uploaded to the Wix Media Manager first as the imageInfo parameter currently only supports the Wix media URL.

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.
