Umbraco Heartcore

Umbraco Heartcore is a headless CMS that's friendly for editors and flexible for developers. This integration allows business users to build personalized digital experiences (web sites, web apps, mobile apps, etc.) by re-purposing content from your Umbraco Heartcore content management system. It also enables developers to use their preferred front-end tools to build these applications.

This section provides guides on how to use Uniform with Umbraco Heartcore.

Adding the Umbraco Heartcore integration to your Uniform project adds new parameter types that you can add to your Uniform Canvas components.

Prerequisites

You must have access to a Uniform team with the ability to create new projects. If you are an active customer or a partner, please get in touch with your Uniform team administrator colleague and ask for an invite.

If you are not sure or your company does not have a Uniform team, you can request a sandbox here.

Before you start

You must have the following to complete this setup:

  • The project alias from your Umbraco Heartcore project.
  • An API key for Umbraco Heartcore.
  1. In Uniform, open your project.

  2. Navigate to the Integrations tab.

  3. Scroll to the section Browse Integrations.

    Server (optional)On a component, after you select content for a parameter that uses this integration, it's possible to display an edit button to the user. When the user clicks the button, the selected content is opened in the Umbraco Heartcore back office. This edit button is only available when this value is set.
    To determine the appropriate value for your project, open your project in the Umbraco Heartcore back office. You can find the server in the back office URL. The URL uses the following structure:
    [project alias].[server].umbraco.io
