Abstract: We present a simple prescription for computing conformal blocks and correlation functions holographically in AdS3 in terms of Wilson lines merging at a bulk vertex. This is shown to reproduce global conformal blocks and heavy-light Virasoro blocks. In the case of higher spin theories the space of vertices is in one-to-one correspondence with the space of calWN conformal blocks, and we show how the latter are obtained by explicit computations.
