DingTalk

YouClaw can send reminders, notifications, and AI conversation summaries through a DingTalk Bot. Once connected, you can receive messages from YouClaw directly in DingTalk, and also send messages to YouClaw from DingTalk.

Connect a DingTalk Bot

Step 1: Create a DingTalk App

  1. Go to the DingTalk Open Platform and log in
  2. Create a new Enterprise Internal App
  3. In Credentials & Basic Info, find your AppKey and AppSecret
  4. Under Bot configuration, enable the bot capability
  5. Under Permissions, grant the required message-sending permissions

Step 2: Enable Stream Mode

  1. In your app settings, go to Event Subscriptions
  2. Enable Stream Mode — this allows YouClaw to receive messages via a persistent connection without deploying a public webhook

Step 3: Configure in YouClaw

Open YouClaw Settings > Channels > DingTalk and enter:

AppKey: your-app-key
AppSecret: your-app-secret

Click Test Connection. If you receive a test message in DingTalk, the setup is complete.

Supported Features

Task Notifications

When YouClaw finishes a background task (e.g., file processing, data analysis), it notifies you of the result through DingTalk.

You can chat with YouClaw directly in DingTalk — send messages to the bot and receive AI-powered replies.
