## Short answer

**Can OpenClaw write a LinkedIn post from an article I send it in a chat?**

Yes. If Telegram, WhatsApp or another channel is configured in your OpenClaw Gateway, you can send an article link and your angle in a message. OpenClaw reads the article, drafts a LinkedIn point of view that credits the source and saves it through Tareno. The draft stays a draft until you approve a scheduling request in Tareno.

Experts read articles all day and rarely write about them, because the gap between reading and posting is too wide on a busy afternoon. A chat message is narrow enough to cross. OpenClaw lives in the messaging apps you already use, so the step from "this is interesting" to "here is my take" can be one message with a link and one sentence of opinion. This page follows a security consultant through that routine: what the message should contain, how credit to the source is kept, what the connection to Tareno does and why the post still passes through your approval before LinkedIn sees it.

## Example: a security consultant reacts to a breach report

Picture a consultant who advises mid-sized companies on incident response. On a train she reads a published breach analysis and sends OpenClaw a Telegram message with the link and one line: the report understates how often credentials, not exploits, were the entry point. OpenClaw reads the article, drafts a 200-word LinkedIn post that states her point first, quotes one figure with attribution and links the source. It asks Tareno for `list_accounts` to confirm her personal profile, saves the draft through `create_drafts` and replies in Telegram with the text. She edits one sentence on her phone, then asks for Tuesday 08:15 in Europe/Berlin. Tareno answers with a pending action ID, and she approves it in the dashboard that evening.

## Step by step

1. **Send the article and your angle.** Message OpenClaw in a channel that is configured in your Gateway, with the link and one sentence about what you think the article gets right or wrong. The angle is what makes the post yours rather than a summary.
2. **Let it read and attribute.** OpenClaw fetches the article and drafts the post. Ask it to name the source in the text and to quote only figures that appear on the page, so a reader can verify every number.
3. **Confirm the profile.** OpenClaw checks the connected LinkedIn account with `list_accounts`. If you have a personal profile and a company page, say which one the post is for before the draft is saved.
4. **Save the draft and read it in chat.** OpenClaw saves the post through `create_drafts` and replies with the text. Edit in the same chat, because a short back-and-forth is faster than switching to the dashboard.
5. **Request a slot.** Give a day, a time and an IANA time zone. Tareno turns the request into a pending action with an ID, which OpenClaw reports back to you in the chat.
6. **Approve in the dashboard.** Open the Tareno dashboard, read the final text once more and approve the request. Only then does the post go to LinkedIn at the agreed time.

## Prompts to copy

### Draft from the link

```text
Read this article: [URL]. My angle is: [the report understates how often stolen credentials were the entry point]. Write a LinkedIn post of about 200 words for [mid-sized company owners] that states my point in the first line, credits the source by name and uses at most one figure that appears in the article.
```

### Check the claims

```text
List every factual claim in the draft above next to the sentence in the article that supports it. Mark any claim without support as unverified and rewrite the draft so that it contains only supported claims plus my opinion, which should be clearly marked as opinion.
```

### Save and confirm

```text
Use Tareno to confirm my LinkedIn account [name] and save the final text as a draft for it. Reply with the draft ID and the exact text, and do not schedule anything until I tell you the day and time.
```

### Request the slot

```text
Ask Tareno to schedule draft [draft ID] for [Tuesday 08:15] in the [Europe/Berlin] time zone. Reply with the pending action ID, and remind me that the post is not scheduled until I approve it in the Tareno dashboard.
```

## LinkedIn in Tareno

- Tareno cannot read LinkedIn posts that were published outside Tareno and has no comment reading for LinkedIn, so OpenClaw works from the article you send and from drafts stored in your workspace.
- LinkedIn says organic posts for a company Page can be created by a super admin or content admin. Sponsored Content poster is a paid-media role in Campaign Manager, so connect a Page account with the role that matches the action you want.
- Tareno's configuration allows up to 3,000 characters on LinkedIn, and links get a preview card, so a 200-word post with a source link fits comfortably.
- LinkedIn offers no transcripts through Tareno, which matters if your source is a podcast or video: send OpenClaw the text, not the link.

Official rules ([Microsoft Learn: LinkedIn Posts API](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/marketing/community-management/shares/posts-api), checked 2026-10-24):

- Organic posts can contain text, images, videos, documents, articles, several images or polls. Organic carousels are not supported by the Posts API; they exist only as sponsored content.
- Posting for a company page requires one of the page roles administrator, direct sponsored content poster or content admin. Posting as a member needs the w_member_social permission.
- An article post needs its title, description and thumbnail set explicitly, because the API does not scrape the link for a preview.
- Reading a member's own posts needs r_member_social, a restricted permission that is available to approved users only.

## Mistakes to avoid

- Sending a paywalled article link. If OpenClaw cannot read the page, it may guess from the headline; paste the text instead.
- Letting the post summarize the article. Without your angle in the first line, it reads like a news feed and says nothing about you.
- Messaging from a chat that is not allowed in the Gateway. If nothing happens, check the channel and sender rules first.
- Approving from the chat without rereading in the dashboard. The approval step exists so that a person reads the exact text one more time.

## What does not work

- OpenClaw cannot read a paywalled article or a video, so the source has to be accessible as text for the draft to rest on it.
- It cannot publish to LinkedIn by itself, because scheduling and publishing requests wait for your approval in the Tareno dashboard.
- It cannot answer comments on your LinkedIn posts through Tareno, since comment reading is not available for that network.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I send OpenClaw an article and get a LinkedIn draft back?

Yes, in any channel configured in your OpenClaw Gateway. Send the link and your angle, and OpenClaw drafts the post and saves it through Tareno. The draft remains a draft until you approve a scheduling request in the dashboard.

### How does OpenClaw credit the article?

Ask it to name the source in the text and to quote only figures that appear on the page. It can add the link, which LinkedIn shows as a preview card, but you decide how prominent the credit is.

### Does OpenClaw post to my personal profile or my company page?

To whichever LinkedIn account you name and have connected in Tareno. It confirms the account with `list_accounts` first. For organic posts to a company Page, LinkedIn requires a super admin or content admin role; Sponsored Content poster is a separate paid-media role in Campaign Manager.

### Can OpenClaw read my earlier LinkedIn posts for tone?

Only posts stored in your Tareno workspace. Tareno cannot read LinkedIn posts that were published elsewhere, so paste two or three of your older posts into the chat if you want the draft to match your voice.

### Can OpenClaw publish at a time I choose?

It can request a time, but the request is a pending action in Tareno. LinkedIn receives the post at that time only after you approve the request in the dashboard.

### What if the article is a podcast or a video?

Tareno offers no transcripts for LinkedIn, so give OpenClaw the text of what was said. A short summary you wrote yourself works too, as long as you tell it which statements it may quote.

## Tareno tools used

- `list_accounts`
- `create_drafts`

Approval model: Tareno saves drafts directly. Scheduling, publishing, edits to scheduled posts and deletions become pending actions that a person approves in the Tareno dashboard; no agent can approve them.
