How to enable Heidi in WriteUpp
Built specifically for clinicians, Heidi captures your consultation in real time and turns it into clear, well-structured notes. From clinical summaries and SOAP notes to referrals and outcome letters, Heidi helps reduce admin time so you can focus on your client.
With the Heidi integration enabled in WriteUpp, the Heidi Widget is embedded directly into your site. This means you can access Heidi while writing notes, assessments or documents, without needing to leave WriteUpp. Once your consultation is complete, your documentation can be inserted straight into the client record in just a few clicks.
Before you begin
To use this integration, you’ll need:
- A Heidi subscription or trial on one of the following plans:
- Scribe Plus or Clinician (Individuals)
- Practice or Enterprise (Teams)
- The WriteUpp integration added to your Heidi subscription through Heidi’s EMR Integrations Marketplace
You can unlock the WriteUpp integration from Heidi’s integrations marketplace, starting from £5 a month for users on eligible individual plans. Alternatively, you’ll be prompted to complete this setup directly within the widget once logged in.
Note: Users on a paid Team plan must contact Heidi sales to enable the WriteUpp integration add-on. - Heidi login credentials for each user who wants to use the integration
If you don’t already have a Heidi account, you can create one the first time you open the widget, and even try the WriteUpp integration for free during a Heidi trial!

If Heidi has been enabled but you cannot sign in or use the integration, first check that:
- You have an active Heidi subscription and are using the correct login details
- Your Heidi account is on one of the following supported plans:
- Scribe Plus or Clinician (Individuals)
- Practice or Enterprise (Teams)
- Your Heidi account includes access to the WriteUpp integration add-on
The WriteUpp integration can be enabled either through the Heidi Widget in WriteUpp or via Heidi’s EMR Integrations Marketplace.

The Heidi Widget is managed by Heidi rather than WriteUpp, and we’re unable to troubleshoot issues outside of WriteUpp itself.
