Overview
CMS Integration enables automated deployment of SEO recommendations directly to your website. When you approve recommendations in Korvex, the system automatically implements changes to meta titles, descriptions, schema markup, headings, and content on your live site through secure API connections.
Methodology: Closed Loop SEO
Supported Platforms
- WordPress - Via REST API
- Shopify - Via Admin API
- Webflow - Via CMS API
Setup Process
1. Access CMS Settings
Navigate to Client Settings → CMS Integration
2. Choose Your Platform
Select your CMS type from the dropdown menu
3. Configure API Credentials
All credentials are encrypted using AES-256 encryption before storage.
WordPress Requirements:
- REST API endpoint URL
- Application password (recommended over admin credentials)
Shopify Requirements:
- Admin API access token
- Store domain
Webflow Requirements:
- API token
- Site ID
4. Test & Map
- Run connection test to verify API access
- Map your site pages to enable targeted deployments
- Configure which page types should receive automated updates
Core Capabilities
Automated Deployment Approved recommendations deploy instantly to your live site without manual intervention.
Version Control Before/after snapshots capture all changes for compliance and audit purposes.
Rollback Protection One-click rollback restores previous versions if issues arise post-deployment.
Selective Sync Choose which recommendation types auto-deploy versus require manual review.
Security & Safety
- Encrypted Storage: All API credentials use AES-256 Fernet encryption
- Permission Scoping: Connections use minimum required permissions
- Change Tracking: Complete audit trail of all automated changes
- Instant Rollback: Revert any change within seconds
Best Practices
Initial Setup
- Start with a staging environment when possible
- Test connection with a single page before enabling bulk operations
- Verify page mapping accuracy before going live
Ongoing Management
- Review the CMS Review Queue regularly, even with auto-deployment enabled
- Monitor deployment logs for any API errors or failures
- Use rollback immediately if unexpected changes appear on your site
Security
- For WordPress, always use application passwords instead of admin credentials
- Regularly rotate API tokens according to your security policies
- Limit API permissions to only what's necessary for SEO updates
Troubleshooting
Connection Issues
- Verify API credentials are current and have proper permissions
- Check that your CMS allows API access (some hosts block REST API calls)
- Ensure firewall settings permit connections from Korvex
Deployment Failures
- Review error logs in the CMS Integration dashboard
- Confirm target pages still exist and are editable
- Check for plugin conflicts (WordPress) or app conflicts (Shopify)
