Webex

Video meetings and messaging from chat -- send messages, manage rooms and teams, handle memberships, and configure webhooks.

Powered by ClawLink, an integration hub for OpenClaw that handles hosted OAuth flows and credentials so you don't need to configure Webex API access yourself.

Install

openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin
openclaw config set tools.alsoAllow '["clawlink-plugin"]' --strict-json
openclaw gateway restart

Quick Start

1. List your rooms: webex_messaging_list_rooms -- see all spaces you belong to.
2. Send a message: webex_messaging_create_message -- post text or markdown to a room.
3. List team members: webex_messaging_list_memberships -- see who is in a room.

Authentication

Webex uses managed OAuth via ClawLink. No API keys needed. Connect your Webex account at claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=webex and authorize access through the hosted flow.

Connection Management

List connections: clawlink_list_integrations -- confirm Webex is connected.

Verify: Call webex_messaging_list_rooms to test access.

Reconnect: If you see auth errors, reconnect at claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=webex.

Security & Permissions

Read operations (list rooms, get messages, list members) run safely. Write operations (create message, create room, update) require confirmation. Delete operations are high-impact and irreversible.

Code Examples

List rooms

{ "tool": "webex_messaging_list_rooms" }

Send a message to a room

{
  "tool": "webex_messaging_create_message",
  "args": {
    "roomId": "Y2lzY29zcGFyazovL3VzL1JPT00vYWJjMTIz",
    "text": "Meeting notes are ready for review."
  }
}

Create a team

{
  "tool": "webex_create_team",
  "args": { "name": "Project Alpha Team" }
}

Discovery Workflow

1. Call clawlink_list_integrations to confirm webex is connected.
2. Call clawlink_list_tools --integration webex to see the live catalog.
3. Call webex_messaging_list_rooms to discover room IDs.
4. Use room IDs in messaging and membership operations.

Execution Workflow

Read Flow:  User asks for messages → clawlink resolves connection → Webex API → results displayed
Write Flow: User wants to send msg  → confirmation prompt → clawlink resolves connection → Webex API → message sent

Notes

• The title parameter is always required when updating a room, even if only changing isLocked or teamId.
• Team rooms cannot be moved after creation. Bots cannot simultaneously create and classify rooms.
• Non-moderators are removed from a room instead of deleting it. Team rooms are archived rather than deleted.
• Webhooks are automatically disabled after 100 failed delivery attempts within five minutes.
• Moderator assignment requires special account permissions and may fail with 403.

Error Handling

Troubleshooting

Tools Not Visible

Run openclaw gateway restart after installing the plugin. Start a fresh chat session.

Cannot Send Messages

Verify the room ID is correct using webex_messaging_list_rooms.
