SEO data APIs for keywords, SERP, and site audits. Once connected, OpenClaw can read and act on DataforSEO from chat — pairing, token refresh, and tool wiring handled for you.

312 tools

The usual route to DataforSEO 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 DataforSEO setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect DataforSEO in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real DataforSEO actions from any chat surface with no auth, token refresh, or tool wiring to build yourself.

Copy this prompt into OpenClaw, or open the DataforSEO skill on ClawHub.

Prompt for OpenClaw
Before installing anything, inspect the ClawHub skill metadata and setup requirements.
If the skill asks you to install a third-party package or CLI, verify its source, maintainer, and package contents before running the install command.
Install the skill "DataforSEO" (hith3sh/dataforseo-reporting) from ClawHub only after those checks pass.
Skill page: https://clawhub.ai/hith3sh/dataforseo-reporting
Keep the work scoped to this skill only.
After install, help me finish setup from verified skill metadata.
Use only the metadata you can verify from ClawHub; do not invent missing requirements.
Ask before making any broader environment changes.

Setup

It takes three steps to connect OpenClaw to DataforSEO.

  1. 1

    Install the plugin

    Paste the setup prompt into OpenClaw, or install from the terminal and ask OpenClaw to pair:

    openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin
  2. 2

    Connect DataforSEO

    Enter your account details in the dashboard.

  3. 3

    Use it from chat

    Ask OpenClaw: "What can you do with DataforSEO?"

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:

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 DataforSEO in the ClawLink dashboard — enter your DataforSEO account details once.

Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw:

Create it in DataforSEO for me, then confirm the important fields before you finish.

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:

npx -y @useclawlink/cli login

login opens the same browser approval and stores a credential locally. Once DataforSEO is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 312 DataforSEO tools over MCP. Full setup for MCP clients and shell agents: connect apps to any AI agent.

DataforSEO MCP for OpenClaw

Looking for a DataforSEO MCP server for OpenClaw? ClawLink connects DataforSEO to OpenClaw and exposes 312 DataforSEO tools your agent can call over MCP, with hosted auth and nothing to run or maintain yourself. Using Hermes instead? The Hermes DataforSEO integration works the same way.

What the OpenClaw DataforSEO integration can do

312 DataforSEO tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. The 30 below are the ones people reach for most; your agent can call all 312.

The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual credential 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 DataforSEO working from chat.

ManualClawLink
Setup flowCollect and store the right DataforSEO credentials yourself, then keep the account mapping and request format correct.ClawLink keeps the setup in one hosted flow so non-technical users can link DataforSEO without custom integration screens.
Ongoing maintenanceYou own refresh logic, permission debugging, environment config, and every provider-specific edge case for DataforSEO.ClawLink handles the repetitive integration plumbing so your team can focus on the workflow instead of the infrastructure.
Agent usabilityYou still need to expose the right DataforSEO actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use.312 tools for DataforSEO are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately.

Composio also exposes DataforSEO 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 DataforSEO in the browser, and the 312 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the DataforSEO key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them? Read the full Composio alternatives comparison.

Troubleshooting

OpenClaw installed the DataforSEO skill but can't call the tools

The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about DataforSEO, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure DataforSEO 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 DataforSEO 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 DataforSEO tools

DataforSEO 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 DataforSEO 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.

DataforSEO 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.

The setup form accepts credentials but calls still fail

Re-enter the credentials carefully and verify the account-level permissions for DataforSEO. Basic and token-based integrations tend to fail on formatting mistakes or limited account roles.

How do I add DataforSEO to OpenClaw with ClawLink?

Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink DataforSEO skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize DataforSEO.
