Hi,
I was wondering if there’s a way to incorporate the Wix REST API found in the Wix Developers section into Velo to be used on a single site without creating an app. The use case is to create a Wix Group via code. My thoughts are that I can use the HTTP-function API but I’m not sure how. Let me know if you need any more details!
Thanks,
Ajani
Hey @ajanistella ,
The app market REST APIs are intended to be used by applications, while the Velo APIs are intended to be used by a site. While those scopes are not exact, there is a large overlap and we aim at Wix to create full parity between the two.
We are actually working on an automation process (being rolled out now) that will ensure any REST API that makes sense for Velo will also be a JS API. In fact, all the new Booking APIs are such APIs.
Let me know which specific REST API you are looking for, will check what is the status
Thank you @yoav-wix ! I am looking for the Social Groups API (ie Wix Groups).
@yoav-wix Any updates?
Hey @ajanistella ! I’m a software engineer from Wix Groups team. We’re planning to release the Social Groups Velo API soon, so stay tuned. Can you please explain more about your use case, so I can check if it’s covered by our API?
@tarasi Thank you! I would just like to create a Group on Velo by inputting the name, id, and group admin, just like the post feature in the Developer REST API.
Hi @ajanistella !
We just released the Wix Groups Velo API .
Please check it if it’s still relevant for you.
