🔥🔥🔥Epic Update: Guide to Integrating OpenClaw into WeChat on Lighthouse

Preliminary Preparations

OpenClaw (formerly Clawdbot) natively supports integration with WhatsApp, Discord, Telegram, Slack, and other popular messaging apps, allowing you to interact with OpenClaw through these platforms. Before you begin configuring WeChat access for OpenClaw, please check the following items in order:

Your WeChat App version has been upgraded to the latest version (iOS: 8.0.70; Android: 8.0.69).

Please note that WeChat ClawBot is currently only supported in select regions outside mainland China. The feature is being gradually rolled out — please stay tuned.

Step 1. Configure the OpenClaw Model

1.Log in and enter the Console.

2.Locate "Tencent Cloud Lighthouse".

3.Find the Instance you just purchased.

4.Go to the "Pre-installed application" tab.

5.Choose a suitable model/existing API

The Models list only displays models that are available for use in this region:
due to access or service restrictions on some models in specific regions, the system will not display models that are not currently supported in the current region.

If this is your first time using this service, after selecting a suitable model, click "Get API KEY" below to purchase the model's credit limit and obtain the key.

Step 2. Select WeChat in the Channel Card on the OpenClaw Configuration Panel, Then Click "Go to Authorization"

  1. In the application channel settings, select WeChat.

  2. Click "Authorization Access" to proceed to the next step.

  3. Please wait a moment until the QR code appears.

Next, we need to scan the QR code with WeChat to complete the connection.
Open the WeChat App on your phone and use WeChat's "Scan" feature to scan the QR code shown above:

After scanning is complete, add it, and you will be taken directly to the WeChat ClawBot chat page. You can start chatting with it right away:

Note: The table above only represents the message types that WeChat ClawBot can receive/reply with. Whether it can actually process images, files, and other tasks depends on the capabilities of the connected model.

⚠️ Note: If this image appears after scanning the QR code with WeChat, the reason is likely due to a region issue with WeChat used overseas.
Currently, Hong Kong is supported; for other regions, please check with WeChat's official support for compatibility updates.

🔥 Major Release! Lighthouse OpenClaw One-Click WeChat Integration FAQ

Tencent Cloud Lighthouse Team 2026.04.08

WeChat requires iOS 8.0.70 or above. Even if you haven't been included in the grayscale rollout, you can directly scan the WeChat QR code to access and use it.
The Lighthouse console has been the first to support QR codes for the WeChat channel.


No. Question Answer
1 Why can't I see WeChat in the "Channels" section of the Tencent Cloud Lighthouse OpenClaw console? You need to click the one-click update button in the upper left corner, and then you'll be able to see it.
2 Why can't I see it even after updating to the latest version? Force-refresh the page a few times. Windows: Ctrl + F5; Mac: Cmd + Shift + R
3 Can I connect WeChat, QQ, and Lark at the same time? A single OpenClaw instance can support multiple channels simultaneously.
4 I was using QQbot before. Can I add a WeChat bot? Will the existing skills, such as scheduled reminders and tasks, automatically push to the WeChat bot? Yes, if they are on the same server. Essentially, tasks on the same server can be controlled through different chat channels to execute on the same OpenClaw instance.
5 When will platforms other than iOS and Android be supported? Besides iOS and Android, support for other systems is coming soon. Stay tuned.
6 What should I do if the one-click update fails? Try again first. If it still fails, back up your data and reinstall the system to get the latest image.
7 Can I use it on desktop WeChat? I can see it on my phone but not on the computer. Currently no. Only mobile is supported — iOS 8.0.70 and Android 8.0.69 or above.
8 I can't generate a QR code on the WeChat authorization page. (WeChat access failed, your protocol failed multiple times, please try again later) This issue has been resolved. Log in to the server, or execute the following command via TAT: jq 'if .plugins.allow and (["openc...
