Common Issues and Solutions

Connection Failed

Problem: The API key doesn’t work or connection fails. Solution:
  • Verify you copied the entire API key correctly
  • Make sure you generated a new API key in Genseo
  • Try disconnecting and reconnecting the integration

Articles Not Syncing

Problem: Articles don’t appear after clicking sync. Solution:
  • Ensure the collection is properly connected in Framer
  • Verify the API key is still valid in Genseo
  • Check that articles are published in Genseo before syncing
  • Try disconnecting and reconnecting the integration

Collection Not Found

Problem: Can’t find the collection in Framer. Solution:
  • Make sure you created the collection when setting up the plugin
  • Verify you’re looking in the correct Framer project
  • Try creating a new collection and reconnecting

Best Practices

  • Regular syncing: Since Framer doesn’t support auto-publishing, set a reminder to sync regularly
  • Test first: Sync a test article before syncing multiple articles
  • Monitor syncs: Check your Framer collection after syncing to ensure articles appear correctly
