How to Connect OpenClaw with Enterprise WeChat in 3 Simple Steps
This guide walks you through installing the OpenClaw plugin, creating a WeChat Work robot, linking it to OpenClaw, and testing the connection, enabling AI assistants to operate within Enterprise WeChat without requiring public IPs or complex callbacks.
Prerequisites
OpenClaw – installed and running
Enterprise WeChat (WeCom) – registered and usable
If OpenClaw is not yet installed, follow the referenced installation tutorial before proceeding.
Step 1: Create a WeChat Work Robot
Log in to the Enterprise WeChat admin console (work.weixin.qq.com). Navigate to Security & Management → Management Tools → Intelligent Robot and click Create Robot . Choose Manual Creation , then scroll to the bottom and select API Mode Creation . Copy the generated Bot ID and Secret – they will be needed later.
Step 2: Link the Robot to OpenClaw
Install the official WeCom plugin for OpenClaw:
openclaw plugins install @wecom/wecom-openclaw-pluginRestart the OpenClaw gateway to activate the plugin: openclaw gateway restart Add a new channel for the robot: openclaw channels add When prompted, answer Yes to enable the channel, then select WeCom as the channel type. Paste the previously saved Bot ID and Secret values, confirm with finished, and enable pairing mode by selecting Pairing. Finally, choose no to disable automatic approval for added security.
Step 3: Pair and Test the Integration
In the Enterprise WeChat admin console, locate the robot you created, edit its avatar, name, and description, then save.
Set the robot’s visible range by adding the appropriate organization or users.
Open the Enterprise WeChat client, search for the robot, and send a message. The robot will reply with a pairing code.
Back in the terminal, approve the pairing using the code (replace <pairing‑code> with the actual code):
openclaw pairing approve wecom <pairing‑code>Send another message from the client; a successful reply confirms that the integration works.
Beyond a Simple Channel
Integrating Enterprise WeChat with OpenClaw is more than adding a communication channel; it upgrades the usage scenario. The official documentation highlights two extension directions: a) Smart‑sheet webhook for structured data and business forms, and b) Enterprise WeChat API for executing internal operations. With AI assistants embedded directly in Enterprise WeChat, AI deployment can move from demos to everyday workflows.
