Post to Facebook from OpenClaw
OpenClaw is a self-hosted gateway that runs on your own machine and connects an AI agent to chat apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord and iMessage, so you can message your assistant from anywhere. A video posted as a Reel on your Facebook Page, or a text-only Page post.

openclaw mcp set kreatix '{"url":"https://api.kreatix.cc/mcp","transport":"streamable-http","headers":{"Authorization":"Bearer YOUR_KEY"}}'What OpenClaw can do on Facebook
A video posted as a Reel on your Facebook Page, or a text-only Page post.
| Setting | Values | Needed | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
media_url | URL | No | The video, posted as a Reel: a link from your Kreatix library or a public YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or Facebook post. Leave it out for a text-only post. |
caption | string (max 5000) | No | The Reel's description, or the whole post when there is no video. A text-only post needs it. |
cover_url | URL | No | Set as the Reel's cover once Facebook has finished processing the video. If that takes too long, the cover is skipped. |
Ask in plain words
A message to your OpenClaw assistant from any chat app it is connected to, or from the Control UI chat. For example: "Plan this video for my brand group tomorrow at 18:00."
- Post this on my Facebook page tomorrow at 9:00: We're open this Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00.
- Share this Instagram Reel link on all my Facebook pages tonight at 20:00.
- Cancel the Facebook post planned for Friday.
Facebook rules to know
- Videos go out as Facebook Reels.
- A text-only post needs a caption.
- The cover is added after Facebook finishes processing the video; if that takes too long, it is skipped.
- When Facebook blocks a post as spam (code 368) or hits a rate limit, Kreatix does not retry: retrying makes the block worse.
- Kreatix posts to the Facebook Pages you manage.
Tips for OpenClaw
- Plan posts from your phone: message OpenClaw on WhatsApp or Telegram, and your Gateway calls Kreatix.
- Saving a server doesn't prove it works. openclaw mcp doctor kreatix --probe connects and lists the tools Kreatix offers.
- Keep the key out of config literals: write "Bearer ${KREATIX_API_KEY}" in the header and set the variable for the Gateway. openclaw mcp doctor warns about keys written in plain text.
- The agent checks the pages, caption and time with you before it posts. It cannot delete pages, read messages or change your account, and you can remove it any time in Settings > AI agent.
Questions
How do I post to Facebook from OpenClaw?
Connect OpenClaw to Kreatix once, as shown above. Then ask it to post: name your Facebook pages or a page group, the video or text and the time. OpenClaw shows you the plan and posts after you say yes.
Can the agent post text without a video to Facebook?
Yes. Leave media_url out and the caption goes out as a Page post. Facebook, LinkedIn and X are the networks that take text-only posts.
Does a Facebook video go out as a Reel or a regular video?
As a Reel. Kreatix uploads it through Facebook's Reels flow and, if you gave a cover, sets it once Facebook has finished processing the video.
What if Facebook blocks the post as spam?
Kreatix does not send it again on its own, because repeating is what Facebook's block (code 368) punishes. The post shows as failed with Facebook's reason, and the fix is to wait.
Can my agent post to 20 Facebook Pages at once?
Yes: up to 50 pages in one schedule_post call, or a whole group with group_id. Each page counts as one post toward the key's hourly limit, 100 an hour by default.
MCP server or the Kreatix skill?
Either works. The MCP server gives OpenClaw Kreatix's seven tools directly and supports Sign in with Kreatix. The ClawHub skill (@abrahimceylan/kreatix) teaches the agent to call the same server with curl and your key in KREATIX_API_KEY.
How do I sign out?
Run openclaw mcp logout kreatix. It removes the saved sign-in and keeps the server entry. To cut access for good, also delete the key in Kreatix under Settings > AI agent.
Kreatix schedules one video to every page you run, each with its own platform settings.
