# How to connect Stannp to OpenClaw (paste one key, 32 tools) > Connect Stannp to OpenClaw with ClawLink: paste your Stannp key once and 32 tools work from chat. No MCP server to run, nothing stored on your machine. Web version: https://claw-link.dev/openclaw/stannp The usual route to Stannp 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 Stannp setup: install one ClawHub skill, connect Stannp in the browser, and OpenClaw can call real Stannp 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 Stannp. 1. **Install ClawLink** — add the plugin to OpenClaw once. 2. **Connect Stannp** — 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 stannp # connect Stannp (browser OAuth) npx -y @useclawlink/cli actions stannp # list available actions npx -y @useclawlink/cli run stannp --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 Stannp in the [ClawLink dashboard](https://claw-link.dev/dashboard) — paste your Stannp API key once. Verify the connection by asking OpenClaw: > Create it in Stannp 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: ```bash npx -y @useclawlink/cli login ``` `login` opens the same browser approval and stores a credential locally. Once Stannp is connected in the dashboard, that agent calls the same 32 Stannp tools over MCP.

ClawLink connects Stannp to OpenClaw and exposes 32 Stannp 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 Stannp integration](https://claw-link.dev/hermes/stannp) works the same way. ## What the OpenClaw Stannp integration can do 32 Stannp tools are ready for OpenClaw once the account is connected. The 29 below are the ones people reach for most; your agent can call all 32. ### 29 of 32 Stannp tools for OpenClaw | Tool | What it does | |---|---| | **Create campaign sample** `stannp_create_campaign_sample` | Produce a PDF sample of your campaign | | **Get account balance** `stannp_get_account_balance` | Retrieve the current account balance | | **Get campaign** `stannp_get_campaign` | Retrieve details of a specific campaign | | **Get campaign available dates** `stannp_get_campaign_available_dates` | Get available dates for scheduling a campaign (up to 30 days) | | **Get campaign cost** `stannp_get_campaign_cost` | Get the estimated cost of booking a campaign | | **Get contact** `stannp_get_contact` | Retrieve details of a specific contact | | **Get current user** `stannp_get_current_user` | Get information about the currently authenticated user including rate limit status | | **Get reporting summary** `stannp_get_reporting_summary` | Get a status summary on individual items within a date range | | **List campaigns** `stannp_list_campaigns` | Get a list of all campaigns | | **List contacts** `stannp_list_contacts` | List all contacts | | **List folders** `stannp_list_folders` | Get a list of folders in your secure file transfer area | | **List groups** `stannp_list_groups` | Get a list of mailing groups on your account | | **List mailpieces** `stannp_list_mailpieces` | Retrieve mailpiece objects sent within a date range | | **List templates** `stannp_list_templates` | List all templates associated with the account | | **Validate address** `stannp_validate_address` | Validate a postal address | | **Add recipient to group** `stannp_add_recipient_to_group` | Add a recipient to a recipient group | | **Add recipients to group** `stannp_add_recipients_to_group` | Add existing recipients to a mailing list group | | **Create campaign** `stannp_create_campaign` | Create a new direct mail campaign on the platform | | **Create folder** `stannp_create_folder` | Create a folder in your secure file transfer area | | **Create group** `stannp_create_group` | Create a new recipient group in Stannp | | **Create letter** `stannp_create_letter` | Create a letter with mail merge to insert address and variable data | | **Create postcard** `stannp_create_postcard` | Create a postcard | | **Create selection** `stannp_create_selection` | Create a new recipient selection for targeting in Stannp | | **Import recipients** `stannp_import_recipients` | Import recipients from a CSV or XLS file into a Stannp recipient group | | **Merge pdfs** `stannp_merge_pdfs` | Merge multiple PDF files into a single file | | **Recalculate group** `stannp_recalculate_group` | Recalculate a group to ensure stats are up to date | | **Upload file** `stannp_upload_file` | Upload a file to your secure file transfer area | | **Cancel postcard** `stannp_cancel_postcard` | Cancel a postcard if processing has not started yet | | **Remove recipients from group** `stannp_remove_recipients_from_group` | Remove recipients from a group without deleting them | ## Example prompts **Create Campaign Sample** > Create it in Stannp for me, then confirm the important fields before you finish. **Get Account Balance** > Pull the relevant data from Stannp, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Campaign** > Pull the relevant data from Stannp, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. **Get Campaign Available Dates** > Pull the relevant data from Stannp, summarize it in plain English, and point out anything that needs attention. ## 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 Stannp working from chat. | | Manual | ClawLink | |---|---|---| | **Credential handling** | Collect, validate, store, and rotate the Stannp API key yourself, then make sure every tool call uses the right account. | Users complete the hosted ClawLink setup once and the connected Stannp 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 Stannp. | 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 Stannp actions to the runtime in a format your agent can reliably use. | 32 tools for Stannp are already exposed through ClawLink, so the agent can read and act from chat immediately. | ## ClawLink vs. Composio Composio also exposes Stannp 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 Stannp in the browser, and the 32 tools above work from chat. There is no SDK and no config file, and the Stannp 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 Stannp skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Stannp, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account. Make sure Stannp 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 Stannp 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 Stannp tools Stannp 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 Stannp 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. ### Stannp 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 Stannp has the right scopes or account access. A valid key can still be too limited for some reads or writes. ### Is there a OpenClaw Stannp integration? Yes. ClawLink is the fastest way to connect OpenClaw to Stannp: link your Stannp account once in the browser and OpenClaw can call the Stannp API through 32 ready-made tools — no custom code or token handling. ### How do I add Stannp to OpenClaw with ClawLink? Paste the setup prompt from this page into OpenClaw. It installs the ClawLink Stannp skill from ClawHub, then you click Connect in the dashboard to authorize Stannp. OpenClaw calls the tools from the next message — no config files, and the Stannp key you paste is stored server-side instead of in your environment. ### How long does it take to connect Stannp to OpenClaw? About two minutes. Sign in, click Connect next to Stannp in the dashboard, authenticate, and OpenClaw can use it from the next chat message. ### Why use ClawLink instead of wiring Stannp 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 Stannp working from chat. ### OpenClaw installed the Stannp skill but can't call the tools The ClawHub skill teaches OpenClaw about Stannp, but the calls run through the ClawLink plugin and your connected account.
