Hi Yoav,
I would like to validate a request from a Wix site from a 3rd party service. How would I do that? Would I give the Wix customer an API key? I was thinking of checking her unique Wix site id or unique Wix customer id (is there one) and also using an API key, but you said there is not a unique Wix site id to identify the site. I saw a post that you don't have an Oauth mechanism so in lieu of Oauth, how would I validate a request from a Wix backend call to a 3rd party service? I don't like using a domain since it is not constant.
why do you need a unique wix site id?
The best I can think of is the site URL - which is unique by definition.
