# How to connect CompanyCam to OpenClaw (paste one key, 24 tools) > Connect CompanyCam to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your CompanyCam key once and 24 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine. Web version: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/companycam The usual route to CompanyCam access for OpenClaw is an MCP server you configure and keep running, plus your own OAuth app or API keys. ClawLink gives OpenClaw a more practical CompanyCam setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect CompanyCam in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real CompanyCam actions from any chat surface with no auth, token refresh, or tool wiring to build yourself. ## Setup It takes three steps to connect OpenClaw to CompanyCam. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once. 2. **Connect CompanyCam** — one-click OAuth in the ClawLink dashboard. 3. **Use it from chat** — ask OpenClaw in plain English. **Paste this into OpenClaw to set up ClawLink:** > I want to connect my apps to OpenClaw through ClawLink. > Please install the ClawLink plugin from ClawHub and enable it: `openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin` > When it is installed, tell me and stop. After I reply, give me the ClawLink pairing link. Setup notes, if you need them: https://claw-link.dev/skill.md **Alternative for any agent (no plugin needed):** if the OpenClaw plugin route isn't available or doesn't work, any AI agent with shell access can use the ClawLink CLI instead: ```bash npx -y @useclawlink/cli login # sign in via browser — no API key to paste npx -y @useclawlink/cli connect companycam # connect CompanyCam (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions companycam # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run companycam --input '' # execute (add --confirm for writes) ``` ### Install by command The setup prompt above does all of this in one paste. By hand, it is one install command plus a browser approval: ```bash openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin ``` Then ask OpenClaw to set up ClawLink. It starts browser pairing and prints an approval link — open it, approve the device, return to the chat, and say `done`. Finally, connect CompanyCam in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your CompanyCam API key once. Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw: > Pull the relevant data from CompanyCam, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. ### Using a different agent? The OpenClaw plugin is one client of ClawLink's MCP server. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or any agent that can run a shell command pairs with the same ClawLink account through the CLI: ```bash npx -y @useclawlink/cli login ``` `login` opens the same browser approval and stores a credential locally. Once CompanyCam is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 24 CompanyCam tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects CompanyCam to OpenClaw and exposes 24 CompanyCam tools your agent can call over [MCP](https://claw-link.dev/learn/what-is-an-mcp-server), with [hosted auth](https://claw-link.dev/learn/oauth-for-ai-agents) and nothing to run or maintain yourself. Using Hermes instead? The [Hermes CompanyCam integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/companycam) works the same way. ## What the OpenClaw CompanyCam integration can do 24 CompanyCam tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. ### All 24 CompanyCam tools for OpenClaw | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Get account context** `companycam_get_account_context` | Return the connected CompanyCam user and company so an agent can identify the account, role | | **Get photo** `companycam_get_photo` | Get one CompanyCam photo by ID | | **Get project** `companycam_get_project` | Get one CompanyCam project by ID | | **List comments** `companycam_list_comments` | List comments attached to either a CompanyCam project or photo | | **List customers** `companycam_list_customers` | List or search CompanyCam customers by name or contact text | | **List labels** `companycam_list_labels` | List reusable CompanyCam project labels that can be attached to projects | | **List project photos** `companycam_list_project_photos` | List and filter photos in a CompanyCam project by tags, users, or groups, one cursor page at a | | **List project tasks** `companycam_list_project_tasks` | List tasks for a CompanyCam project, including status, completion, assignees, and attached media | | **List projects** `companycam_list_projects` | List projects with optional lifecycle and assigned-user filters, one cursor page at a time | | **List tags** `companycam_list_tags` | List reusable CompanyCam media tags and return an opaque cursor for the next page | | **List users** `companycam_list_users` | List CompanyCam users available for task assignment and project workflows | | **Search projects** `companycam_search_projects` | Search CompanyCam projects by a free-text query when project list filters are insufficient | | **Add comment** `companycam_add_comment` | Add a comment to either a CompanyCam project or photo | | **Add photo tags** `companycam_add_photo_tags` | Attach media tags by display name | | **Add project labels** `companycam_add_project_labels` | Attach project labels by display name | | **Add project photo from URL** `companycam_add_project_photo_from_url` | Add a photo to a CompanyCam project by having CompanyCam fetch a publicly reachable HTTPS image | | **Create customer** `companycam_create_customer` | Create a CompanyCam customer with optional contact details, company status, notes, address, and | | **Create project** `companycam_create_project` | Create a CompanyCam project with its required address and optional contact, customer, location | | **Create project task** `companycam_create_project_task` | Create a task on a CompanyCam project with task details and optional assignees | | **Create tag** `companycam_create_tag` | Create a reusable CompanyCam media tag for organizing photos | | **Set photo description** `companycam_set_photo_description` | Create or replace the description attached to a CompanyCam photo | | **Update customer** `companycam_update_customer` | Update the name, notes, city, or postal code of an existing CompanyCam customer | | **Update project** `companycam_update_project` | Update editable project identity, address, or primary-contact fields without changing archive | | **Update project task** `companycam_update_project_task` | Update a CompanyCam project task's details or add and retain assignees | ## Example prompts **Get Account Context** > Pull the relevant data from CompanyCam, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Photo** > Pull the relevant data from CompanyCam, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Project** > Pull the relevant data from CompanyCam, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **List Comments** > List the relevant items in CompanyCam, group them by priority, and recommend what OpenClaw should do next. ## ClawLink vs. building it yourself The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual API key setup plus your own token handling, permission troubleshooting, and tool plumbing for OpenClaw. That is fine if you want to build and maintain the integration yourself. Most teams just want CompanyCam working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the CompanyCam API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected CompanyCam account becomes available to the agent without you building credential management. | | **Ongoing maintenance** | You own refresh logic, permission debugging, environment config, and every provider-specific edge case for CompanyCam. | ClawLink handles the repetitive integration plumbing so your team can focus on the workflow instead of the infrastructure. | | **Agent usability** | You still need to expose the right CompanyCam actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 24 tools for CompanyCam are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes CompanyCam to AI agents. It is developer infrastructure: Python and TypeScript SDKs, an MCP server, and a catalog past 1,000 apps, aimed at teams shipping agent products. ClawLink is built for OpenClaw users instead. You install the plugin once, connect CompanyCam in the browser, and the 24 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the CompanyCam key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them?

Make sure CompanyCam is connected in the dashboard, then start a fresh chat so OpenClaw reloads the tool catalog. If OpenClaw runs as a persistent gateway, restart it so the new tools register. ### Connection succeeds but no tools appear Reconnect CompanyCam from the dashboard, then start a fresh chat if the runtime still has the old tool catalog loaded. ### "Tool schema not loaded yet" error when calling CompanyCam tools CompanyCam tool schemas load on demand the first time a tool runs and are cached after that, so this error usually clears on its own: wait a few seconds and retry the same request. If every CompanyCam call keeps failing with it in a fresh chat, reconnect from the dashboard, and contact support if it still persists — that pattern points to a configuration problem on our side, not something you can fix by reconnecting again. ### CompanyCam returns 403 or "permission denied" on one action while others work Two usual causes. The connected account may not have access to the specific workspace, inbox, store, or project in the request — check that first. If access looks right, the agent may have sent a placeholder value (like "YOUR_ID" or an example id from documentation) instead of a real one: ask it to run a list or search tool first, then retry the action with a real id from those results. Most failures at this stage are one of these two, not ClawLink bugs. ### API key setup works but results look incomplete Double-check that the API key for CompanyCam has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes. ### Is there a OpenClaw CompanyCam integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to CompanyCam: link your CompanyCam account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the CompanyCam API through 24 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I add CompanyCam to OpenClaw with ClawLink? Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink CompanyCam skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize CompanyCam. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the CompanyCam key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment. ### How long does it take to connect CompanyCam to OpenClaw? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to CompanyCam in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring CompanyCam up myself? The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual API key setup plus your own token handling, permission troubleshooting, and tool plumbing for OpenClaw. That is fine if you want to build and maintain the integration yourself. Most teams just want CompanyCam working from chat. ### OpenClaw installed the CompanyCam skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about CompanyCam, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure CompanyCam is connected in the dashboard, then start a fresh chat so OpenClaw reloads the tool catalog. If OpenClaw runs as a persistent gateway, restart it so the new tools register. ## Related - [OpenClaw Trello integration](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/trello) — Manage boards, lists, and cards - [Moco tools](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/moco) — MOCO is a business management software offering project management, time tracking, and invoicing solutions. - [ClickUp](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/clickup) — Manage tasks, docs, goals, and sprints
