# Wix Stores and eCommerce API (slim)

> Wix is a hosted website and online store platform. Agents reach its Stores and eCommerce data through the REST API at www.wixapis.com, a JavaScript SDK, and a hosted MCP server at mcp.wix.com that searches the docs and calls site APIs.

Assessment: The developer docs are served as Markdown with an llms.txt index, and API keys carry permission scopes and a site restriction. No numeric REST rate limit or OpenAPI file was found, and status.wix.com records a platform-wide incident of 3 hours 17 minutes on 1 August 2026. A person must create the account and the key.

## Before you call it

1. Send the API key in `Authorization` with `wix-site-id` for site calls or `wix-account-id` for account calls, never both
2. Fetch the product first and pass `product.revision` on every Catalogue V3 update, or the call fails with 409
3. Use Cart V2 for new work. The older eCommerce Cart and Checkout APIs were deprecated on 5 August 2026
4. Request `cursorPaging.limit` of at most 100 on Query Products and use Search Products for lookups by name
5. Over MCP, read the method page with `ReadFullDocsArticle` before `CallWixSiteAPI`. Responses are cut at 50,000 characters by default

## Connect

npm install @wix/sdk @wix/stores
