How to connect Parseur to OpenClaw
Connect Parseur to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your Parseur key once and 26 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine.
ParseurAPI KEYMCPParseur is an AI-powered data extraction tool that automates the parsing of emails, PDFs, and other documents into structured data.. Once connected, OpenClaw can read and act on Parseur from chat — pairing, token refresh, and tool wiring handled for you.
The usual route to Parseur 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 Parseur setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Parseur in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Parseur 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 Parseur.
1Install 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
Connect Parseur
Paste your API key in the dashboard.
- 3
Use it from chat
Ask OpenClaw: "What can you do with Parseur?"
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-pluginThen 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 Parseur in the ClawLink dashboard — paste your Parseur API key once.
Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw:
Pull the relevant data from Parseur, 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:
npx -y @useclawlink/cli loginlogin opens the same browser approval and stores a credential locally. Once Parseur is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 26 Parseur tools over MCP. Full setup for MCP clients and shell agents: connect apps to any AI agent.
Parseur MCP for OpenClaw
Looking for a Parseur MCP server for OpenClaw? ClawLink connects Parseur to OpenClaw and exposes 26 Parseur tools your agent can call over MCP, with hosted auth and nothing to run or maintain yourself. Using Hermes instead? The Hermes Parseur integration works the same way.
What the OpenClaw Parseur integration can do
26 Parseur tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. The 22 below are the ones people reach for most; your agent can call all 26.

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 Parseur working from chat.
| Manual | ClawLink | |
|---|---|---|
| Credential handling | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the Parseur API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected Parseur 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 Parseur. | 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 Parseur actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 26 tools for Parseur are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. |
ClawLink vs. Composio
Composio also exposes Parseur 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 Parseur in the browser, and the 26 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the Parseur key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them?

Troubleshooting
OpenClaw installed the Parseur skill but can't call the tools
The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Parseur, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Parseur 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 Parseur 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 Parseur tools
Parseur 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 Parseur 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.
Parseur 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 Parseur has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes.
FAQ
Is there a OpenClaw Parseur integration?
Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Parseur: link your Parseur account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Parseur API through 26 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling.
How do I add Parseur to OpenClaw with ClawLink?
Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Parseur skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Parseur. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the Parseur key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment.

About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Parseur in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message.
Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Parseur 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 Parseur working from chat.
