Use the Oviond REST API when you want Openclaw or another custom agent to work with Oviond through API calls instead of MCP.
This article is for technical team members using Openclaw or a custom AI agent workflow.
You will need:
access to your Oviond account,
an Oviond API key,
a safe place to store the key as an environment variable or secret,
the API base URL: `https://api.oviond.com`.
Never paste an API key into a public prompt, screenshot, support ticket, repository, or shared document.
In the Oviond app, generate an API key from the API keys area in settings.
Copy it once and store it safely.
Add the API base URL:
`https://api.oviond.com`
Add the API key as a private secret, not as visible prompt text.
Oviond API requests use the Authorization header:
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEYSend JSON request bodies with `Content-Type: application/json`.
Start with a read-only request before creating, updating, deleting, or scheduling anything.
Use the API docs to confirm the exact endpoint, method, request body, and response shape.
Openclaw or your custom agent should be able to call the Oviond REST API using the API key and the `https://api.oviond.com` base URL.
Check that the API key is present, valid, and sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.
The key or account may not have permission for that action.
Check the request body against the API docs. A required field may be missing or invalid.
Open the API docs and search for the resource you want to manage, such as clients, projects, widgets, automations, users, or data sources.
Send Oviond support:
the endpoint path,
the HTTP method,
the status code,
a redacted request body,
the error response,
what you expected to happen.
Do not send your API key.
