Connect Canny to OpenClaw on Operator.io
Canny is a platform for managing customer feedback and feature requests. It helps teams prioritize product decisions based on real user insights.
Automate Canny with AI
On Operator, an OpenClaw agent pilots Canny for you. It reads your message, plans the steps, and runs them in Canny, using actions like add post tag, change post status, create changelog entry.
Your agent reaches Canny directly or through connectors like Composio MCP and Pipedream MCP, which handle the sign in and token refresh for you, so there is nothing to wire up and no API keys to paste.

You authorize Canny once from your dashboard. Operator holds the connection and refreshes the access tokens on its own, so your agent keeps working with Canny without you signing in again. The same setup unlocks every other app your agent can reach, so you only do it once.
