Wix Bookings MCP server

Wix Bookings is a scheduling and appointment management platform for service-based businesses. With this MCP server integration, AI agents can manage bookable services, staff availability, customer appointments, and calendar events. Use this if you operate a salon, consulting firm, fitness studio, or any business that needs to automate appointment workflows.

Setting up an MCP server

This article covers the standard steps for creating an MCP server in AI Gateway and connecting it to an AI client. The steps are the same for every integration — application-specific details (API credentials, OAuth endpoints, and scopes) are covered in the individual application pages.

Before you begin​

You'll need:

  • Access to AI Gateway with permission to create MCP servers
  • API credentials for the application you're connecting (see the relevant application page for what to collect)

Create an MCP server​

Find the API in the catalog​

  1. Sign in to AI Gateway and select MCP Servers from the left navigation.
  2. Select New MCP Server.
  3. Search for the application you want to connect, then select it from the catalog.

Configure the server​

  1. Enter a Name for your server — something descriptive that identifies both the application and its purpose (for example, "Zendesk Support — Prod").
  2. Enter a Description so your team knows what the server is for.
  3. Set the Timeout value. 30 seconds works for most APIs; increase to 60 seconds for APIs that return large payloads.
  4. Toggle Production mode on if this server will be used in a live workflow.
  5. Select Next.

Configure authentication​

Enter the authentication details for the application. This varies by service — see the Authentication section of the relevant application page for the specific credentials, OAuth URLs, and scopes to use.

Configure security​

  1. Set any Rate limits appropriate for your use case and the API's own limits.
  2. Enable Logging if you want AI Gateway to record requests and responses for auditing.
  3. Select Next.

Deploy​

Review the summary, then select Deploy. AI Gateway provisions the server and provides a server URL you'll use when configuring your AI client.

Connect to an AI client​

Once your server is deployed, you'll need to add it to the AI client your team uses. Select your client for setup instructions:

Tips​

  • You can create multiple MCP servers for the same application — for example, a read-only server for reporting agents and a read-write server for automation workflows.
  • If you're unsure which OAuth scopes to request, start with the minimum read-only set and add write scopes only when needed. Most application pages include scope recommendations.
  • You can edit a server's name, description, timeout, and security settings after deployment without redeploying.

Authentication​

OAuth 2.0 is used for authentication with the Wix Bookings API. Create a Wix app in the Wix Developer Dashboard and configure the OAuth settings with the following endpoints:

  • Authorization URL: https://www.wix.com/installer/install
  • Token URL: https://www.wixapis.com/oauth2/token
  • Redirect URI: https://auth.aigateway.cequence.ai/v1/outbound/oauth/callback

The following required headers must be included in API requests:

  • Authorization: Bearer {access_token}
  • wix-site-id: {site_id}

Available tools​

The available tools enable AI agents to manage the complete booking lifecycle: service configuration, staff scheduling, customer appointment creation, and availability queries.

ToolDescription
Create serviceAdd a new bookable service with pricing, duration, and service type (appointment, class, or course)
List servicesQuery available services and view service configuration details
Update serviceModify service details, pricing, or availability settings
Create staff memberAdd a staff member and assign them to services
List staffView all staff members and their assigned services and availability
Create bookingBook an appointment for a customer at an available time slot
List bookingsQuery bookings by status, date range, or customer
Confirm bookingApprove a pending booking and notify the customer
Cancel bookingCancel an appointment with optional customer notification
Reschedule bookingMove an appointment to a different time slot
Query availabilityFind open time slots for a service on a specific date
List calendar eventsView all bookings and blocked time periods for staff

Tips​

Use the availability query tool first to show customers open slots before creating a booking, ensuring the requested time is actually free.

Set up staff availability and blocked time periods to prevent double-bookings and ensure accurate availability results.

Configure required fields (like payment methods or custom forms) in the service settings before accepting bookings to avoid incomplete customer records.

Test different service types — appointments are one-on-one, classes are group sessions, and courses are multi-session programs — to match your business model correctly.

Always include a notification message when canceling or rescheduling so customers receive timely updates about changes.
