Troubleshooting

Telegram may require a proxy in some regions. Set up terminal proxy and restart Gateway:
export https_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:proxy-port
export http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:proxy-port
openclaw gateway restart
Or use Web UI directly (no proxy needed).
Run diagnostic command to auto-fix:
openclaw doctor --fix
  1. Check if API key is correct
  2. Confirm baseUrl is set to https://api.apiyi.com/v1
  3. Test connectivity:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer your-key" \
     https://api.apiyi.com/v1/models
openclaw logs --follow
openclaw update
openclaw channels add --channel telegram
