# How to connect Documenso to OpenClaw (paste one key, 77 tools) > Connect Documenso to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your Documenso key once and 77 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine. Web version: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/documenso The usual route to Documenso 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 Documenso setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Documenso in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Documenso 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 Documenso. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once. 2. **Connect Documenso** — 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 documenso # connect Documenso (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions documenso # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run documenso --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 Documenso in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your Documenso API key once. Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw: > Use Documenso to download envelope item and walk me through the result in plain English. ### 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 Documenso is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 77 Documenso tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects Documenso to OpenClaw and exposes 77 Documenso 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 Documenso integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/documenso) works the same way. ## What the OpenClaw Documenso integration can do 77 Documenso 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 77. ### 30 of 77 Documenso tools for OpenClaw | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Download envelope item** `documenso_download_envelope_item` | Download an envelope item as PDF | | **Download signed document** `documenso_download_signed_document` | Download a completed/signed document as PDF | | **Find documents** `documenso_find_documents` | Find documents based on search criteria with filtering and pagination | | **Find documents v2** `documenso_find_documents_v2` | Retrieve a paginated list of documents with optional filtering and sorting | | **Find envelopes** `documenso_find_envelopes` | Find envelopes based on search criteria, filters, and pagination | | **Find folders** `documenso_find_folders` | Find folders based on search criteria and filters | | **Find templates** `documenso_find_templates` | Retrieve a paginated list of templates with optional filtering and search | | **Get document by ID** `documenso_get_document_by_id` | Retrieve complete information about a document by its ID | | **Get document field** `documenso_get_document_field` | Retrieve a document field by its ID | | **Get document recipient** `documenso_get_document_recipient` | Retrieve detailed information about a document recipient by their ID | | **Get documents by IDS** `documenso_get_documents_by_ids` | Retrieve multiple documents by their IDs in a single request | | **Get envelope attachment** `documenso_get_envelope_attachment` | Find all attachments for a specific envelope | | **Get envelope audit log** `documenso_get_envelope_audit_log` | Retrieve audit logs for an envelope | | **Get envelope by ID** `documenso_get_envelope_by_id` | Retrieve complete information about an envelope by its ID | | **Get envelope field** `documenso_get_envelope_field` | Fetch an envelope field by ID | | **Get envelope recipient** `documenso_get_envelope_recipient` | Retrieve detailed information about an envelope recipient by their ID | | **Get envelopes by IDS** `documenso_get_envelopes_by_ids` | Retrieve multiple envelopes by their IDs | | **Get template by ID** `documenso_get_template_by_id` | Retrieve complete information about a template by its ID | | **Get template field** `documenso_get_template_field` | Fetch a template field by ID | | **Get template recipient** `documenso_get_template_recipient` | Retrieve detailed information about a template recipient by their ID | | **Get templates by IDS** `documenso_get_templates_by_ids` | Retrieve multiple templates by their IDs in a single request | | **List templates** `documenso_list_templates` | List templates | | **Create document beta** `documenso_create_document_beta` | Create a new document using the beta endpoint that returns a presigned URL for file upload | | **Create document field** `documenso_create_document_field` | Create a single field for a document | | **Create document fields bulk** `documenso_create_document_fields_bulk` | Create multiple fields on a document in a single operation | | **Create document recipient** `documenso_create_document_recipient` | Create a single recipient for a document | | **Create document recipients bulk** `documenso_create_document_recipients_bulk` | Create multiple recipients for a document at once | | **Create embedding presign token v2 beta** `documenso_create_embedding_presign_token_v2_beta` | Create a presign token for Documenso embedded authoring sessions | | **Create envelope** `documenso_create_envelope` | Create a new envelope in Documenso | | **Create envelope attachment** `documenso_create_envelope_attachment` | Create a new attachment for an envelope in Documenso | ## Example prompts **Download Envelope Item** > Use Documenso to download envelope item and walk me through the result in plain English. **Download Signed Document** > Use Documenso to download signed document and walk me through the result in plain English. **Find Documents** > Use Documenso to find documents and walk me through the result in plain English. **Find Documents V2** > Use Documenso to find documents v2 and walk me through the result in plain English. ## 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 Documenso working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the Documenso API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected Documenso 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 Documenso. | 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 Documenso actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 77 tools for Documenso are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes Documenso 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 Documenso in the browser, and the 77 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the Documenso key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them? Read the full [Composio alternatives](https://claw-link.dev/hub/composio-alternatives) comparison. ### OpenClaw installed the Documenso skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Documenso, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Documenso 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 Documenso 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 Documenso tools Documenso 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 Documenso 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. ### Documenso 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 Documenso has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes. ### Is there a OpenClaw Documenso integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Documenso: link your Documenso account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Documenso API through 77 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I add Documenso to OpenClaw with ClawLink? Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Documenso skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Documenso. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the Documenso key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment. ### How long does it take to connect Documenso to OpenClaw? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Documenso in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Documenso 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 Documenso working from chat. ### OpenClaw installed the Documenso skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Documenso, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Documenso is connected in the dashboard, then start a fresh chat so OpenClaw reloads the tool catalog.
