Deploy OpenClaw on Northflank with a one-click template and access it through the web Control UI. This is the easiest “no terminal on the server” path: Northflank runs the Gateway for you.

How to get started

  1. Click Deploy OpenClaw to open the template.
  2. Create an account on Northflank if you don’t already have one.
  3. Click Deploy OpenClaw now.
  4. Set the required environment variable: OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN (use a strong random value).
  5. Click Deploy stack to build and run the OpenClaw template.
  6. Wait for the deployment to complete, then click View resources.
  7. Open the OpenClaw service.
  8. Open the public OpenClaw URL at /openclaw and connect using your OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN.

What you get

  • Hosted OpenClaw Gateway + Control UI
  • Persistent storage via Northflank Volume (/data) so config/credentials/workspace survive redeploys

Connect a channel

Use the Control UI at /openclaw or run openclaw onboard via SSH for channel setup instructions:
