These recipes use REST API calls and are designed for: - **Site setup and configuration** — Initial setup of stores, bookings, payments, and other business apps - **Entity management** — Creating, updating, and deleting products, services, staff members, pricing plans - **Administrative operations** — Bulk updates, contact labeling, data migrations - **Backend integrations** — Server-to-server automations, webhooks, data synchronization These recipes do NOT cover frontend development or SDK usage for displaying data to users. --- ## App Installation ### [Install Wix Apps](references/app-installation/install-wix-apps.md) **Technical:** Installs Wix apps on a site using Apps Installer API. Covers enabling Velo (Wix Code), app installation, and common app definition IDs. ### [List Installed Apps](references/app-installation/list-installed-apps.md) **Technical:** Lists all apps installed on a site using Apps Installer API.

Covers listing semantic models, inspecting a model's schema (measures, dimensions, parameters), and querying data with a required time interval, filters, sorting, paging, and human-readable formatting.

Covers bookingPolicy, cancellationPolicy, and waitlist settings. ### [Booking System Integration Gaps](references/bookings/booking-system-integration-gaps.md) **Technical:** Documents undocumented API patterns for booking payments. Covers Bookings→Ecommerce integration, booking ID transformation to catalog items, and async payment confirmation flows. ### [Bookings Staff Setup](references/bookings/bookings-staff-setup.md) **Technical:** Creates staff members and configures custom working hours using Staff API + Calendar Events API. Critical two-step process: create staff → assign schedule → create working hours events. ### [Create and Update Booking Services](references/bookings/create-and-update-booking-services.md) **Technical:** Full CRUD operations for Wix Bookings services using Services API. Covers service types (APPOINTMENT, CLASS, COURSE), pricing configuration, location setup, and schedule management. ### [Create Booking Service from Prompt](references/bookings/create-booking-service-from-prompt.md) **Technical:** Use when the user wants to create a booking service — e.g. "create a yoga class for $50", "set up consultations", "add a personal training appointment", "create a hidden free test course with 8 sessions". Routes to the correct type-specific recipe (APPOINTMENT, CLASS, or COURSE), gathers business context, applies defaults, and creates the service. For COURSE services with session dates/counts, the course is not bookable until separate Calendar Events are created on the returned service schedule. ### [Create Appointment Service](references/bookings/create-appointment-service.md) **Technical:** Use when the user wants to create an appointment/consultation/1-on-1 service — e.g. "set up consultations for $75", "create a meeting service".

Never put session dates under `course.sessions` in the Services V2 payload. ### [Check Bookings Availability (and Diagnose Issues)](references/bookings/diagnose-availability-issues.md) **Technical:** Use when someone asks whether an appointment-based service has bookable availability, or why it shows no times / "customers can't book". Reports the current availability status first (via ListAvailabilityTimeSlots); diagnoses the cause only when there's no availability or the owner asks why — ruling out service-level blockers (hidden / online booking off), then running DiagnoseAvailability (`POST /v2/time-slots/diagnose`) for ordered reason codes, with a policy/capacity fallback. ### [End-to-End Booking Flow](references/bookings/end-to-end-booking-flow.md) **Technical:** Complete booking flow from service discovery to payment. Query services, check availability with Time Slots V2, create bookings, and process payment via eCommerce checkout. ### [External Calendar Integration](references/bookings/external-calendar-integration.md) **Technical:** OAuth-based integration with Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, and Apple Calendar.

Add the CATALOG plugin to convert any CMS collection into purchasable products with cart and payment integration. ### [CMS References & Relationships](references/cms/cms-references-and-relationships.md) **Technical:** Add, replace, or remove items from MULTI_REFERENCE fields. Use insert-references, replace-references, remove-references endpoints. Required for managing multi-reference relationships - these CANNOT be set via regular insert/update/patch operations.

This is the **default entry point** — it analyzes ALL domains (discounts, shipping) and generates cross-domain recommendations. Do NOT ask clarifying questions. - **Pricing & promotions** (coupons, discount rules, ribbons, sales) → use the [Pricing & Promotions](references/ecommerce/ecom-pricing.md) dispatcher. - **Shipping setup** (rates, regions, pickup, free shipping, fix coverage) → use the [Shipping](references/ecommerce/ecom-shipping.md) dispatcher. ### [eCommerce: Load Context](references/ecommerce/ecom-load-context.md) **L1 loader** — loads general site data (siteId, country, currency, industry, catalog analytics) needed by every eCommerce category. Each category dispatcher loads this before tag-matching; runs once per session. ### [Recommend: eCommerce Strategy](references/ecommerce/recommend-ecommerce-strategy.md) **Entry point for all eCommerce recommendation requests.** Unified skill that analyzes site data across ALL domains (discounts + shipping), generates up to 5 cross-domain recommendations, and persists them to the tracking database. Covers discount strategies (seasonal, upsell, stock mover, bundling) AND shipping optimization (coverage gaps, free shipping, rate strategy, carrier backup). Use this for ANY business improvement request. ### [Pricing & Promotions](references/ecommerce/ecom-pricing.md) **Dispatcher** — routes coupon/discount/sale/ribbon/bundle requests to the right leaf recipe (create coupon, create discount rule, troubleshoot discount-not-applying), and routes strategic "run a sale / boost sales" requests to `recommend-ecommerce-strategy`. ### [Shipping](references/ecommerce/ecom-shipping.md) **Dispatcher** — routes shipping-setup requests (rates, regions, pickup, free shipping, fix coverage, optimize rates) to the right leaf recipe. The Shipping Options + Delivery Profiles APIs have no public docs page; `ecom-shipping-api.md` is the authoritative inline reference.
