Ways to Interact with Lumenbase

    Core Concept

    How to use the app, REST API, OpenClaw, Claude connectors, Zapier, and Lumo with the same workspace data.

    One workspace, four ways in

    Contacts, companies, deals, tasks, invoices, and activities all live in your workspace. You can work with them in the browser, from your own servers, or through an agent. Same data each time; you just sign in a different way depending on which path you use.

    App UI, REST API, OpenClaw, and Claude connectors each connect to the same workspace CRM data.

    Your code

    Gmail, Slack, LinkedIn, and similar integrations pull data in from other tools. Set those up under Settings → Integrations.

    The four ways

    Use the app for day-to-day work, the REST API for your own code, and OpenClaw or Claude MCP when you want an agent to search and update the CRM for you. You can use one or mix them.

    Zapier and Lumo

    Two more pieces that sit alongside the four ways above.

    Outbound events

    When the CRM changes, Zapier can pick it up. See Zapier setup. Configure under Settings → Integrations.

    Lumo (in-app)

    The assistant inside the app. It can use the same CRM actions as the Agent API, and you stay signed in as yourself. Lumo guide

    Where to configure

    App UI: Sign in, left menu, Settings for admins
    REST API: Settings → API
    OpenClaw / MCP: Settings → My Integrations → OpenClaw
    Outbound events: Settings → Integrations
    Lumo: Settings → Lumo
    REST docs: /api
    Agent API base URL: https://api.lumenbase.io/functions/v1/openclaw-api
    Treat API tokens like passwords. Revoke keys you are done with.
