In the code for the Hello Fetch example, there is a link to the following: “https://velo-examples.wixsite.com/training-tester/_functions/randomgreeting”. I was wonderding how you would create a file like this so that it has the same functionalities as the one in the example.

Hello,

You can accomplish this by Exposing a Site API with HTTP Functions .

Here is starting point for what this endpoint may look like:

import { ok, badRequest } from 'wix-http-functions';

export function get_randomgreeting(request) {

    const response = {
        "headers": {
            "Content-Type": "application/json"
        }
    };

    try {

        //Hardcode random responses or use third party API to translate 'Hello world!' message to appropriate randomly selected language 

        response.body = {
            greeting: {
                "language": "English",
                "message": "Hello world!"
            }
        };
        return ok(response);

    } catch (err) {
        response.body = {
            "error": err
        };
        return badRequest(response);
    }
}

You can either hardcode the responses and randomize the response object, or call a third party API that translates the message to the randomly selected language.
