The Genseo Framer integration syncs articles from your Genseo project to a Framer CMS collection.

​
Set up the integration

​
1. Open the Genseo plugin in Framer

  1. Open the Genseo plugin in the Framer Marketplace.
  2. Click Open Plugin.
  3. Select the Framer project you want to connect.

​
2. Create the CMS collection

When prompted by the plugin, create the suggested CMS collection. The collection contains the fields Genseo needs when syncing articles.

​
3. Generate a Framer API key in Genseo

  1. Open your Genseo project.
  2. Go to Integrations.
  3. Select Framer.
  4. Click Generate new API key.
  5. Copy the complete key.
Treat the Framer integration key as a secret. Do not commit it to Git, place it in frontend code, or share it in screenshots and support chats.

​
4. Connect the Framer plugin

  1. Return to the Genseo plugin in Framer.
  2. Paste the integration key.
  3. Click Connect.

​
5. Sync articles

After the connection succeeds:
  1. Close the plugin panel.
  2. Open the connected CMS collection.
  3. Click Sync in the Framer top bar.
Framer requires a manual sync. Open the collection and click Sync whenever you want to pull new or updated articles from Genseo.

​
Troubleshooting

​
Connection failed

  • Confirm that you copied the complete integration key.
  • Generate a new key in Genseo and reconnect.
  • Confirm that the key belongs to the intended Genseo project.

​
Articles do not appear

  • Confirm that the correct Framer project and CMS collection are open.
  • Check that the articles are ready to publish in Genseo.
  • Click Sync again after reconnecting the plugin.

​
Collection not found

  • Confirm that you created the suggested collection during setup.
  • Check that you opened the same Framer project used during connection.
  • Create a new collection and reconnect if the original collection was deleted.

​
Best practices

  • Test the connection with one article before syncing a larger batch.
  • Keep the CMS collection structure stable after connecting it.
  • Verify the synced title, slug, content, image, and metadata before publishing the Framer site.
  • Rotate the integration key if it was exposed or shared accidentally.
