summary: "Use Qwen Cloud via OpenClaw's bundled qwen provider"
|
|
read_when:
|
|
- You want to use Qwen with OpenClaw
|
|
- You previously used Qwen OAuth
|
|
title: "Qwen"
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
OpenClaw now treats Qwen as a first-class bundled provider with canonical id
|
|
`qwen`. The bundled provider targets the Qwen Cloud / Alibaba DashScope and
|
|
Coding Plan endpoints, keeps legacy `modelstudio` ids working as a compatibility
|
|
alias, and also exposes the Qwen Portal token flow as provider `qwen-oauth`.
|
|
|
|
- Provider: `qwen`
|
|
- Portal provider: [`qwen-oauth`](/providers/qwen-oauth)
|
|
- Preferred env var: `QWEN_API_KEY`
|
|
- Also accepted for compatibility: `MODELSTUDIO_API_KEY`, `DASHSCOPE_API_KEY`
|
|
- API style: OpenAI-compatible
|
|
|
|
<Tip>
|
|
If you want `qwen3.6-plus`, prefer the **Standard (pay-as-you-go)** endpoint.
|
|
Coding Plan support can lag behind the public catalog.
|
|
</Tip>

## Getting started
|
|
|
|
Choose your plan type and follow the setup steps.

`qwen-*` auth-choice ids and `qwen/...` model refs. If you define an exact
|
|
custom `models.providers.modelstudio` entry with another `api` value, that
|
|
custom provider owns `modelstudio/...` refs instead of the Qwen compatibility
|
|
alias.

## Plan types and endpoints
|
|
|
|
| Plan | Region | Auth choice | Endpoint |
|
|
| -------------------------- | ------ | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
| Standard (pay-as-you-go) | China | `qwen-standard-api-key-cn` | `dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1` |
|
|
| Standard (pay-as-you-go) | Global | `qwen-standard-api-key` | `dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1` |
|
|
| Coding Plan (subscription) | China | `qwen-api-key-cn` | `coding.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1` |
|
|
| Coding Plan (subscription) | Global | `qwen-api-key` | `coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1` |
|
|
| Qwen Portal | Global | `qwen-oauth` | `portal.qwen.ai/v1` |
|
|
|
|
The provider auto-selects the endpoint based on your auth choice. Canonical
|
|
choices use the `qwen-*` family; `modelstudio-*` remains compatibility-only.
|
|
You can override with a custom `baseUrl` in config.
|
|
|

## Built-in catalog
|
|
|
|
OpenClaw currently ships this bundled Qwen catalog. The configured catalog is
|
|
endpoint-aware: Coding Plan configs omit models that are only known to work on
|
|
the Standard endpoint.
|
|
|
|
| Model ref | Input | Context | Notes |
|
|
| --------------------------- | ----------- | --------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `qwen/qwen3.5-plus` | text, image | 1,000,000 | Default model |
|
|
| `qwen/qwen3.6-plus` | text, image | 1,000,000 | Prefer Standard endpoints when you need this model |
|
|
| `qwen/qwen3-max-2026-01-23` | text | 262,144 | Qwen Max line |
|
|
| `qwen/qwen3-coder-next` | text | 262,144 | Coding |
|
|
| `qwen/qwen3-coder-plus` | text | 1,000,000 | Coding |
|
|
| `qwen/MiniMax-M2.5` | text | 1,000,000 | Reasoning enabled |
|
|
| `qwen/glm-5` | text | 202,752 | GLM |
|
|
| `qwen/glm-4.7` | text | 202,752 | GLM |
|
|
| `qwen/kimi-k2.5` | text, image | 262,144 | Moonshot AI via Alibaba |
|
|
| `qwen-oauth/qwen3.5-plus` | text, image | 1,000,000 | Qwen Portal default |
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
Availability can still vary by endpoint and billing plan even when a model is
|
|
present in the bundled catalog.
|
|
</Note>
|
|
|
|
## Thinking Controls
|
|
|
|
For reasoning-enabled Qwen Cloud models, the bundled provider maps OpenClaw
|
|
thinking levels to DashScope's top-level `enable_thinking` request flag. Disabled
|
|
thinking sends `enable_thinking: false`; other thinking levels send
|
|
`enable_thinking: true`.
|
|
|
|
## Multimodal add-ons
|
|
|
|
The `qwen` plugin also exposes multimodal capabilities on the **Standard**
|
|
DashScope endpoints (not the Coding Plan endpoints):
|
|
|
|
- **Video understanding** via `qwen-vl-max-latest`
|
|
- **Wan video generation** via `wan2.6-t2v` (default), `wan2.6-i2v`, `wan2.6-r2v`, `wan2.6-r2v-flash`, `wan2.7-r2v`
|
|
|
|
To use Qwen as the default video provider:
|
|
|
|
```json5
|
|
{
|
|
agents: {
|
|
defaults: {
|
|
videoGenerationModel: { primary: "qwen/wan2.6-t2v" },
|
|
},
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
See [Video Generation](/tools/video-generation) for shared tool parameters, provider selection, and failover behavior.
|
|
</Note>
|
|
|
|
## Advanced configuration
|
|
|
|
<AccordionGroup>
|
|
<Accordion title="Image and video understanding">
|
|
The bundled Qwen plugin registers media understanding for images and video
|
|
on the **Standard** DashScope endpoints (not the Coding Plan endpoints).
|
|
|
|
| Property | Value |
|
|
| ------------- | --------------------- |
|
|
| Model | `qwen-vl-max-latest` |
|
|
| Supported input | Images, video |
|
|
|
|
Media understanding is auto-resolved from the configured Qwen auth — no
|
|
additional config is needed. Ensure you are using a Standard (pay-as-you-go)
|
|
endpoint for media understanding support.
|
|
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
|
|
<Accordion title="Qwen 3.6 Plus availability">
|
|
`qwen3.6-plus` is available on the Standard (pay-as-you-go) Model Studio
|
|
endpoints:
|
|
|
|
- China: `dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`
|
|
- Global: `dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`
|
|
|
|
If the Coding Plan endpoints return an "unsupported model" error for
|
|
`qwen3.6-plus`, switch to Standard (pay-as-you-go) instead of the Coding Plan
|
|
endpoint/key pair.
|
|
|
|
OpenClaw's bundled Qwen catalog does not advertise `qwen3.6-plus` on Coding
|
|
Plan endpoints, but explicitly configured `qwen/qwen3.6-plus` entries under
|
|
`models.providers.qwen.models` are honored on Coding Plan baseUrls so you
|
|
can opt that model in if Aliyun enables it on your subscription. The
|
|
upstream API still decides whether the call succeeds.
|
|
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
|
|
<Accordion title="Capability plan">
|
|
The `qwen` plugin is being positioned as the vendor home for the full Qwen
|
|
Cloud surface, not just coding/text models.
|
|
|
|
- **Text/chat models:** bundled now
|
|
- **Tool calling, structured output, thinking:** inherited from the OpenAI-compatible transport
|
|
- **Image generation:** planned at the provider-plugin layer
|
|
- **Image/video understanding:** bundled now on the Standard endpoint
|
|
- **Speech/audio:** planned at the provider-plugin layer
|
|
- **Memory embeddings/reranking:** planned through the embedding adapter surface
|
|
- **Video generation:** bundled now through the shared video-generation capability
|
|
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
|
|
<Accordion title="Video generation details">
|
|
For video generation, OpenClaw maps the configured Qwen region to the matching
|
|
DashScope AIGC host before submitting the job:
|
|
|
|
- Global/Intl: `https://dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com`
|
|
- China: `https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com`
|
|
|
|
That means a normal `models.providers.qwen.baseUrl` pointing at either the
|
|
Coding Plan or Standard Qwen hosts still keeps video generation on the correct
|
|
regional DashScope video endpoint.
|
|
|
|
Current bundled Qwen video-generation limits:
|
|
|
|
- Up to **1** output video per request
|
|
- Up to **1** input image
|
|
- Up to **4** input videos
|
|
- Up to **10 seconds** duration
|
|
- Supports `size`, `aspectRatio`, `resolution`, `audio`, and `watermark`
|
|
- Reference image/video mode currently requires **remote http(s) URLs**. Local
|
|
file paths are rejected up front because the DashScope video endpoint does not
|
|
accept uploaded local buffers for those references.
|
|
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
|
|
<Accordion title="Streaming usage compatibility">
|
|
Native Model Studio endpoints advertise streaming usage compatibility on the
|
|
shared `openai-completions` transport. OpenClaw keys that off endpoint
|
|
capabilities now, so DashScope-compatible custom provider ids targeting the
|
|
same native hosts inherit the same streaming-usage behavior instead of
|
|
requiring the built-in `qwen` provider id specifically.
|
|
|
|
Native-streaming usage compatibility applies to both the Coding Plan hosts and
|
|
the Standard DashScope-compatible hosts:
|
|
|
|
- `https://coding.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1`
|
|
- `https://coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1`
|
|
- `https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`
|
|
- `https://dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`
|
|
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
|
|
<Accordion title="Multimodal endpoint regions">
|
|
Multimodal surfaces (video understanding and Wan video generation) use the
|
|
**Standard** DashScope endpoints, not the Coding Plan endpoints:
|
|
|
|
- Global/Intl Standard base URL: `https://dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`
|
|
- China Standard base URL: `https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`
|
|
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
|
|
<Accordion title="Environment and daemon setup">
|
|
If the Gateway runs as a daemon (launchd/systemd), make sure `QWEN_API_KEY` is
|
|
available to that process (for example, in `~/.openclaw/.env` or via
|
|
`env.shellEnv`).
