How To Use SalesBlink With OpenClaw

Automate cold email workflows using SalesBlink with OpenClaw.

P Priya Singh · Last updated

Overview

OpenClaw is an open-source AI agent framework that lets you automate workflows using skills from ClawHub. The Cold Email Campaigns with SalesBlink skill connects your OpenClaw agent to SalesBlink, so you can manage lists, launch sequences, and track campaign performance directly from your agent.

Prerequisites

Before you start, confirm you have the following:

  • SalesBlink API key: Retrieve it from SalesBlink Dashboard > Integrations > API.
  • OpenClaw CLI or agent: Make sure OpenClaw is installed and running in your environment.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Get Your API Key

  1. Log in to your SalesBlink account.
  2. Click Account in the Top Navbar.
  3. Select Integrations from the dropdown.
  4. Click the API tab.
  5. Click Create API Key.
  6. Enter a name for your API key (e.g., "OpenClaw Connection").
  7. Click Create New API Key.
  8. Copy the generated API key.

Step 2: Install the Skill

Install the skill using one of the methods below.

Via CLI

Run the following command in your terminal:

openclaw skills install cold-email-salesblink

Via Prompt

In your OpenClaw agent chat, type:

Install the skill "Cold Email Campaigns with SalesBlink" (sheksushant/cold-email-salesblink) from ClawHub.

Step 3: Inspect Skill Metadata and Finish Setup

After installation, inspect the skill metadata to confirm its capabilities and requirements. The metadata will show available actions, inputs, and any environment variables the skill expects.

Required Environment Variable

Based on the skill metadata, you must set the following environment variable:

Variable Description
SALESBLINK_API_KEY Your SalesBlink API key from Step 1.

Set it in your environment or in your OpenClaw configuration file (e.g., .env):

export SALESBLINK_API_KEY=your_salesblink_api_key_here

Note: Use only the requirements you can verify from the skill metadata on ClawHub. Do not add extra configuration unless the metadata explicitly requires it. If the metadata lists additional environment variables or setup steps, configure those as well.

For persistence, add this line to your ~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, or .env file.

Step 4: Verify the Connection

Test that OpenClaw can reach SalesBlink.

  1. Open your OpenClaw agent chat.
  2. Ask a simple question, such as:
    • "Show me my SalesBlink lists"
    • "What sequences are running?"
  3. The agent should respond with live data from your SalesBlink account.

Troubleshooting

Skill Not Found

Connection Failed

  • Confirm your API key is active in SalesBlink Dashboard> Integrations> API.
  • Make sure the SALESBLINK_API_KEY environment variable is exported in the same shell or process running OpenClaw.
  • Restart your OpenClaw agent after any configuration change.

Permission Errors

  • Check that your SalesBlink API key has the necessary scopes for the actions you want to perform.
