Octopus.do
Connect Octopus.do, a visual sitemap and information architecture tool, with Webflow to transfer planned site structures into your projects and reduce manual page creation.
How to integrate Octopus.do with Webflow
The easiest way to connect the Octopus.do Webflow integration is by using the Octopus.do Webflow app (currently in beta), which imports sitemap structures directly into your Webflow project. You can also export sitemaps as reference documentation (PDF, PNG, CSV, XML) to guide manual page creation.
Use the Octopus.do app with Webflow
The Octopus.do Webflow app runs inside the Webflow Designer and creates pages and content blocks based on your sitemap structure. Import your Octopus.do project URL to scaffold your site architecture.
What transfers:
- Page hierarchy and titles
- Content blocks with planned content organization
- Site structure reflecting your sitemap
What remains manual in Webflow:
- Design customization and styling
- Interactions and animations
- CMS collection configuration
- Dynamic content setup
Note: The integration is currently in beta. Refer to Octopus.do's official documentation for current capabilities and setup procedures.
Export sitemaps as reference documentation
For projects without the direct integration, export your Octopus.do sitemap to use as reference while building in Webflow.
Export formats:
- PDF/PNG: Reference documents for manual page creation and client presentations
- CSV: Page inventories and content planning spreadsheets
- XML: SEO planning and sitemap documentation
Share sitemaps with clients and stakeholders without requiring sign-ups. Publish sitemaps as responsive websites for mobile and desktop review. This allows client approval on the site structure before creating pages in Webflow.
What you can build
Integrate Octopus.do with Webflow to plan site architecture before development, reducing revision cycles during the build phase.
- Agency client sites: Create visual sitemaps for client review and approval, then transfer approved structures into Webflow. Early planning helps avoid multiple iterations during development.
- Multi-page marketing sites: Plan complex hierarchies with landing pages, product sections, and resource centers in Octopus.do, then build the approved structure in Webflow with consistent navigation.
- Content-heavy websites: Map content relationships in Octopus.do before creating Webflow CMS collections and page templates. Use your sitemap as a blueprint for content organization.
- Redesign projects: Document existing site structures to identify navigation problems and content gaps, then rebuild improved architectures in Webflow.
