Does the HootSuite Integration work on Hub/node sites?

Is there any conflict or major issues in using HootSuite integrations with a hub/node setup? Todd noted that you could likely put the node URLs in the integration. Do we have any idea how this would be set up for a user that might have 15 nodes for example? Do they have to set up the integration on each node or is the setup only done on HootSuite?

The reason I linked PWE is that that's who I am thinking about for this question.

I've never hooked up an integration to HootSuite so I am unclear on how they would have to do it in a hub/node setup. Would it be a case of setting the hootsuite app as turned on their Node Config and then putting every node URL in the HootSuite Vanilla app? Does that work? Looking for insight since this integration hasn't been configured a ton and not sure we have considered it with Hub/node.

  • To my knowledge, we've never tried it on a hub/node setup, but I'm pretty sure it'll work on nodes. The integration works per-site, so each node you want to hookup to Hootsuite will need a separate Vanilla panel (instance of our app) in the Hootsuite dashboard. Adding the hub will not work.

    The Hootsuite addon should be enabled on a Vanilla site, then the Vanilla app should be added added in their Hootsuite dashboard. Once added, the Vanilla app in Hootsuite will prompt the user to enter their site URL. They will need to add the node site URL. There are a few prompts to complete setup. This would be done for each node they want to setup in Hootsuite.
