Description: Talk with Rome in WeChat

Use this page to connect Rome to WeChat through the ClawBot/iLink QR login flow.

## Before you start [#before-you-start]

You need:

* WeChat installed and signed in on your phone.
* Access to Rome's web app as the guardian.

## Connect in Rome [#connect-in-rome]

1. Open Rome and go to **Settings**.
2. Open **Channel Connections**.
3. Open the **WeChat** card.
4. Click **Start QR Login**.
5. Wait for Rome to show the WeChat login QR code.

## Scan with WeChat [#scan-with-wechat]

1. Open **WeChat** on your phone.
2. Tap **Scan**.
3. Scan the QR code shown in Rome.
4. Confirm the login on your phone before the QR code expires.
5. Keep the Rome settings page open while it waits for confirmation.

After confirmation, Rome stores the returned ClawBot credentials locally and
starts receiving WeChat messages through that channel.

## If the QR code expires [#if-the-qr-code-expires]

If Rome shows that the QR login expired, click **Cancel** and start QR login
again. A new QR code creates a new login attempt.
