This is a huge topic and not for the faint of heart. But every journey starts with the first step, so start off by using the html code that Zazzle gives you.
Visit a product page and click the link icon immediately underneath the picture of the product. When you do, you'll see some boxes, one of which is headed HTML. Copy that HTML code and then find where to paste it on your WIX website.
That should get you started. Learning, learning, every day a school day 🙂

Yes, it's the "link to this"
I wouldn't bother with the API for now - it's a super-advanced level. Stick with building out your website using the HTML as above for now.
Treat your first website as a learning playground to begin with. As your confidence and knowledge grows, you'll better be able to make decisions about the way forward.
At that point, my own personal recommendation would be to seriously consider a 'self hosted' WordPress site. Many of the sites by the big Zazzle players do amazing things with WordPress. You won't be able to duplicate those sites but you can get close.
@Malissahas done just that and has a really nice site. I forget its url but I'm sure she can chip in with it.
Good luck with this journey!
Thank you Mark! My site is actually just a Blogger blog, not wordpress. I do personally think it looks nice as such, but if you search wordpress on the forums, there have been a couple of threads with people chiming in with their nice wordpress sites.
I do use the Nifty tools by @HightonRidley to make product grids in blog posts and for my gallery page and it makes it super easy to link categories, collections, or specific search terms that link back to Zazzle and automatically add your RF or leave your clean link if you are in the promoter program. Since you can add the grids as stand alone pages they take the work out of adding images and HTML one at a time.
Here is an example of a product page I made for you in just a couple of minutes using just the newest 36 products I created and the nifty product grid embedded code. It takes no time at all and you can use a specific product or category, or search term. You can choose how many to show and how much of the product description you would like to show- here I chose 0 characters of the product description. It does not show the price, but each product links directly back to its counterpart on Zazzle.
This is only available to view on this link because it is just to show you how you could set a product page up fast using Nifty tools instead of individual images and HTML in case you wanted a different option.
ETA- here is another one adding the border frame and some description text.
I'm not sure how relevant it is to your question....more like an alternate solution?
Hopefully you will find some help in how to actually add the HTML within the Wix site. Maybe they have a forum or help section over there? Best of luck to you!
