# Webex

Video meetings and messaging from chat -- send messages, manage rooms and teams, handle memberships, and configure webhooks.
Powered by [ClawLink](https://claw-link.dev/?utm_source=clawhub&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=webex), an integration hub for OpenClaw that handles hosted OAuth flows and credentials so you don't need to configure Webex API access yourself.
### Setup in 3 Steps
| Step 1: Install | Step 2: Pair Account | Step 3: Connect Webex |

```
## Install
```bash
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](https://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](https://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.

```
**Send a message to a room**
```json

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

**Create a team**
```json
{
"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
| Status / Error | Meaning |
|----------------|---------|
| 401 Unauthorized | Token expired; reconnect at the dashboard |
| 403 Forbidden | Insufficient permissions (e.g., moderator assignment) |
| 404 Not Found | Invalid room, message, or membership ID |
## 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`.
