Dear all,

I am trying to add new products to the Wix store database using code but I am unable to. Does the store have restricted permissions? If so, can I change them to enable me to add new products?

P.S. An alternative that also works for me is if I can add products to the store cart from a different database which allows me to add products. However, when I use the .addToCart function it only adds products from the Products database.

Regards,  
Bardhyl

Wix CartIcon - addToCart will only add items to the cart which are in the Wix Stores Product Collection.
