About Backend APIs

Backend APIs are built with HTTP endpoints, which are powered by Astro endpoints.

Unlike backend extensions, HTTP endpoints:

  • Aren't added using npm run generate. Instead, you create endpoint files directly.
  • Don't appear on the Extensions page in the app dashboard.

Learn how to add HTTP endpoints to your project.

Note: HTTP endpoints replace HTTP functions from the previous Wix CLI for Apps. See the Migration Guide.
