# How to connect Parsio to OpenClaw (paste one key, 10 tools) > Connect Parsio to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your Parsio key once and 10 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine. Web version: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/parsio The usual route to Parsio 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 Parsio setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Parsio in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Parsio 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 Parsio. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once. 2. **Connect Parsio** — 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 parsio # connect Parsio (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions parsio # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run parsio --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 Parsio in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your Parsio API key once. Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw: > Pull the relevant data from Parsio, 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 Parsio is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 10 Parsio tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects Parsio to OpenClaw and exposes 10 Parsio 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 Parsio integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/parsio) works the same way. ## What the OpenClaw Parsio integration can do 10 Parsio tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. ### All 10 Parsio tools for OpenClaw | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Get document** `parsio_get_document` | Get one Parsio document and its mailbox-specific parsed JSON fields | | **Get mailbox** `parsio_get_mailbox` | Get settings and parser configuration for one Parsio mailbox | | **List documents** `parsio_list_documents` | List and filter documents in a Parsio mailbox, one page at a time | | **List mailboxes** `parsio_list_mailboxes` | List the Parsio mailboxes available to the connected account so their IDs can be used for | | **List table fields** `parsio_list_table_fields` | List the extraction fields configured for a Parsio mailbox | | **Parse text document** `parsio_parse_text_document` | Submit plain text or HTML to an existing template-based or GPT-powered Parsio mailbox | | **Update mailbox** `parsio_update_mailbox` | Update one or more settings on an existing Parsio mailbox | | **Upload document** `parsio_upload_document` | Upload one file to a Parsio mailbox for parsing, optionally waiting for the parsed result | | **Reparse document** `parsio_reparse_document` | Queue an existing Parsio document to be parsed again | | **Skip documents** `parsio_skip_documents` | Mark one or more documents in a Parsio mailbox as skipped | ## Example prompts **Get Document** > Pull the relevant data from Parsio, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Mailbox** > Pull the relevant data from Parsio, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **List Documents** > List the relevant items in Parsio, group them by priority, and recommend what OpenClaw should do next. **List Mailboxes** > List the relevant items in Parsio, 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 Parsio working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the Parsio API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected Parsio 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 Parsio. | 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 Parsio actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 10 tools for Parsio are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes Parsio 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 Parsio in the browser, and the 10 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the Parsio key you paste at setup is stored server-side rather than kept in your environment. Choosing between them?

Make sure Parsio 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 Parsio 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 Parsio tools Parsio 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 Parsio 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. ### Parsio 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 Parsio has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes. ### Is there a OpenClaw Parsio integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Parsio: link your Parsio account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Parsio API through 10 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I add Parsio to OpenClaw with ClawLink? Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Parsio skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Parsio. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the Parsio key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment. ### How long does it take to connect Parsio to OpenClaw? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Parsio in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Parsio 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 Parsio working from chat. ### OpenClaw installed the Parsio skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Parsio, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Parsio is connected in the dashboard, then start a fresh chat so OpenClaw reloads the tool catalog.
