# Introduction
The backend Wix Members API allows you to manage member access to your site
as well as view and manage site members.

To use the backend Wix Members API,
import the applicable named exports from `wix-members-backend`:

```js
import { authentication, authorization, badges, currentMember, members } from 'wix-members-backend';
```

> **Note:** Functions in the Authentication, Authorization, Badges, and Members APIs can only be triggered by site collaborators with Manage Site Members [permissions](https://support.wix.com/en/article/roles-permissions-overview).
