Connect Wix
PilotScribe publishes straight into your Wix Blog through the Wix Blog
REST API. Each article goes live on your own domain
(e.g. yoursite.com/post/your-article) — great for SEO,
with no DNS for you to touch. You authenticate with a Wix
API key and your Site ID, pasted into
the Publishing tab in PilotScribe.
What you'll need
- The Wix Blog app installed on your site (add it free from the Wix App Market if you don't have a blog yet).
- Account-owner access — only the account owner or a co-owner can generate an API key.
- A premium plan with a connected domain if you want
clean
yoursite.comURLs (free sites publish to awixsite.comaddress).
Steps
- Open the API Keys manager. Go to manage.wix.com/account/api-keys (Account Settings > API Keys).
- Generate an API key. Click
Generate API Key, name it (e.g.
PilotScribe), and grant the permissions Manage Blog, Manage Media Manager and Read Members. Copy the key — Wix shows it only once. - Find your Site ID. Open your site's dashboard; the
Site ID is the value in the URL right after
/dashboard/(a long UUID). - Paste into PilotScribe. In
app.pilotscribe.com, open
your site, go to the Publishing tab, choose
Wix, then paste:
- Wix API key → the key you just generated
- Wix Site ID → the id from the dashboard URL
How it works
On each publish, PilotScribe creates the post and pushes it live in one step, so a post never goes out half-written. The article body is converted to Wix's rich-content format, the cover and any inline images are imported into your Media Manager, and SEO title, description and slug are set. To disconnect at any time, revoke the API key in the Wix API Keys manager; it stops working immediately.
