Choose where to publish

Pick the way your articles reach your website, see what each option needs from you, and publish your first article in one click.

GrowWriter sends a finished article straight to your website. You connect a channel once, on the Channels page, and from then on every article goes live in one click from your Library. This page helps you pick the channel and shows what happens when you publish.

Two kinds of channel

The Channels page lists its channels in two groups.

Websites & CMS are the places your site already stores its posts: Shopify, Sanity and BaseHub. Connecting one takes a few minutes in a dialog, with no code. WordPress, Webflow and Wix are marked Coming soon.
Automation holds the Webhook. It sends each article to an address on your own website, and someone has to write the code that receives it.

Is your platform missing? Click Request a new integration at the bottom of the page. It opens a support message with the request started for you.

The Channels page with the Websites & CMS group showing Shopify, Sanity and BaseHub, and the Automation group showing the Webhook row marked Connected. — Each channel is one row. Connect it once; the status tells you whether it is ready.

Which one is for me

Your website runs on	Connect	Who does it	Time
A Shopify store with a blog	Shopify	You, with admin access to the store	About ten minutes
A site with Sanity as its CMS	Sanity	You, with a project token from whoever set up Sanity	About ten minutes
A site with BaseHub as its CMS	BaseHub	You, with an admin token for the repository	About ten minutes
Anything else: a custom site, another CMS, a static site	Webhook	Your developer	One file of code on their side

Not sure what your site runs on? Ask the person who built it, or send them this page. They will know in a minute.

Connection status

Every connected channel shows a status on its row.

Connected: ready. Articles you publish go there.
Not verified: the webhook address is saved but has never answered. Click Send test event on the row, or just publish; the first success verifies it.
Connecting: a test is running. Wait a few seconds.

Something off? Edit URL changes a webhook address without touching its secret. Disconnect removes the channel; reconnecting starts fresh.

Publish an article

Open your Library and find an article that has finished generating. Hover the row and click Publish, or open the article and pick Publish from the Options menu.
The dialog lists your connected channels. Each one says what will happen: Will publish new for a first publish, Will update existing when the article is already live there. Tick the ones you want.
Shopify asks for an author. Pick one from the list or type a new name; the other channels fill it in for you.
Click Publish. The dialog stays open for a few seconds while the article travels.

The Publish article dialog listing the Webhook channel marked Will publish new, with the Publish button. — Pick the channels. The chip on each row tells you whether this is a first publish or an update.

When it is done, every row shows Published or Updated and a View post link that opens the live article. A row that failed shows the reason and a Retry button; the other channels are not affected.

The Publish results dialog with the Webhook channel marked Published and the Done button. — Done. View post appears next to Published when your site returns the post's address.

Publishing the same article again later, after an edit, updates the post in place. The original publish date stays; nothing is duplicated.

Export instead

Rather paste the article somewhere yourself? Open the article and use the Options menu:

Download as Google Doc (.zip): the article as a Word-compatible document plus a folder with its images, ready for Google Docs.
Copy as Markdown (.md): the full text in Markdown, on your clipboard.

The Options menu of an article in the Library showing Edit article, Download as Google Doc, Copy as Markdown and Publish. — Export lives next to Publish in the article's Options menu.

Limits

You can publish up to 20 times per hour; each channel you tick counts once. If you hit the limit, the dialog says so, nothing is lost, and you can try again a few minutes later. See "Too many requests".
