Connect OpenClaw to Postly

  1. Connect publishing channels in Postly and select the workspace for your assistant. Check API access in your plan.
  2. Add Postly to your OpenClaw remote MCP configuration using Streamable HTTP and the API-key header below.
  3. Use https://mcp.postly.ai/openclaw. When OAuth is offered, enter your key only on the Postly authorization page. For API-key clients, use Authorization: Bearer <your-api-key> in connection settings.
  4. Start a fresh session, enable Postly tools, and verify your workspace and channels with the read-only task below.

Confirm your first successful connection

List my Postly workspaces and connected publishing channels. Show the workspace and destination names. Do not create, schedule, or publish anything.

Match the result to your intended brand. Check API activity for a successful request, then try a publishing workflow.

Publishing workflows for OpenClaw

Autonomous agents are powerful when they have clear boundaries. Postly helps OpenClaw workflows move fast while keeping social accounts, media, publishing, analytics, and approvals inside a governed workspace.

Run scheduled content health checks and summarize queue risks.

Try: “Run a publishing health check, identify gaps, and draft the missing posts for review.”

Create campaigns from product updates, RSS items, or launch notes.

Try: “Create a recurring workflow that turns new product updates into scheduled campaign drafts.”

Upload approved media and prepare platform-ready posts.

Try: “Review failed or pending deliveries and summarize what needs attention.”

Before a write action, confirm content, media, workspace, destinations, date, time, and timezone. Use team approvals where required. Keep the returned post ID and inspect its destination status; accepted or scheduled does not mean published.

Scheduled agent runs depend on your assistant’s orchestration. For recurring source-based publishing, use Auto Post. Your editor and calendar remain available throughout.

Connection and publishing help

No Postly tools appear

Check the endpoint and connection method, enable the tools, and start a fresh session. Client plans and administrator settings can affect custom MCP access.

The workspace or channel is missing

Check the allowed workspace named in the error. Use its workspace ID, switch to the correct API key, or edit Workspace access in API keys. Reconnect a channel if its provider authorization expired.

An accepted request has not published

Retrieve the Postly post ID and inspect the schedule, approval state, and destination results. Resolve the specific validation or provider error before retrying.

How do I stop the connection?

Disable the client connection and revoke its API key in Postly. Review scheduled posts separately; revoking a key does not cancel already accepted publishing work.
