# How to connect Gumroad to OpenClaw (no API keys) > Connect Gumroad to OpenClaw with ClawLink in one click — 7 tools your AI agent can call from chat via hosted OAuth. No API keys, no manual setup. Web version: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/gumroad The usual route to Gumroad 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 Gumroad setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Gumroad in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Gumroad actions from any chat surface with no auth, token refresh, or tool wiring to build yourself. **Start here:** install the ClawLink plugin (`openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin`), pair it in the browser, then connect the app in the ClawLink dashboard. The interactive install prompt is on the web version of this page: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/gumroad ## Setup It takes three steps to connect OpenClaw to Gumroad. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once. 2. **Connect Gumroad** — one-click OAuth in the ClawLink dashboard. 3. **Use it from chat** — ask OpenClaw in plain English. **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 gumroad # connect Gumroad (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions gumroad # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run gumroad --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 Gumroad in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — a one-click OAuth approval, no API keys. Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw: > Pull the relevant data from Gumroad, 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 Gumroad is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 7 Gumroad tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects Gumroad to OpenClaw and exposes 7 Gumroad 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 Gumroad integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/gumroad) works the same way. ## What the OpenClaw Gumroad integration can do 7 Gumroad tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. ### All 7 Gumroad tools for OpenClaw | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Get resource subscriptions** `gumroad_get_resource_subscriptions` | List all active subscriptions for a resource | | **Get sales** `gumroad_get_sales` | Retrieve all successful sales | | **Get user** `gumroad_get_user` | Get the authenticated Gumroad user | | **List products** `gumroad_list_products` | List all products for the Gumroad account | | **Subscribe to resource** `gumroad_subscribe_to_resource` | Subscribe to a resource for webhooks | | **Unsubscribe from resource** `gumroad_unsubscribe_from_resource` | Unsubscribe from a resource | | **Verify license** `gumroad_verify_license` | Verify a Gumroad license key against a product | ## Example prompts **Get Resource Subscriptions** > Pull the relevant data from Gumroad, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Sales** > Pull the relevant data from Gumroad, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get User** > Pull the relevant data from Gumroad, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **List Products** > List the relevant items in Gumroad, group them by priority, and recommend what OpenClaw should do next. ## ClawLink vs. building it yourself The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual OAuth app 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 Gumroad working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Connection flow** | Register a Gumroad app, configure redirect URLs, manage consent details, and reconnect users when auth settings drift. | Users connect Gumroad through the hosted browser flow and ClawLink keeps the token lifecycle out of your app code. | | **Ongoing maintenance** | You own refresh logic, permission debugging, environment config, and every provider-specific edge case for Gumroad. | 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 Gumroad actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 7 tools for Gumroad are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes Gumroad 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 Gumroad in the browser, and the 7 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK, no config file, and no API key handling. Choosing between them?

Make sure Gumroad 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 Gumroad 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 Gumroad tools Gumroad 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 Gumroad 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. ### Gumroad 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. ### OAuth finished in the browser but the account is still missing Try reconnecting Gumroad and complete the consent flow in the same browser session. Partial OAuth approvals or switching accounts mid-flow can leave the connection incomplete. ### Is there a OpenClaw Gumroad integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Gumroad: link your Gumroad account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Gumroad API through 7 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I add Gumroad to OpenClaw with ClawLink? Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Gumroad skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Gumroad. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files or API keys to manage. ### How long does it take to connect Gumroad to OpenClaw? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Gumroad in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Gumroad up myself? The alternative to ClawLink is usually manual OAuth app 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 Gumroad working from chat. ### OpenClaw installed the Gumroad skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Gumroad, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Gumroad 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 - [Cloudcart tools](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/cloudcart) — CloudCart is an e-commerce platform that enables businesses to create and manage online stores efficiently. - [OpenClaw Baselinker integration](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/baselinker) — BaseLinker is a comprehensive e-commerce management platform that integrates with various marketplaces, online stores, carriers, and accounting systems to streamline order processing, inventory management, and sales automation. - [OpenClaw Shippo integration](https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/shippo) — Generate shipping labels, track packages, and manage fulfillment
