Description: The blockStreaming: true config key works on WhatsApp but is not recognized for the msteams channel. Setting it manually in openclaw.json causes gateway validation failure, and openclaw config set channels.msteams.blockStreaming true returns: Config validation failed: channels.msteams: Unrecognized key: "blockStreaming"

Error Message

  1. Attempt to restart the gateway — gateway fails to start with a validation error
  2. Direct file edit → gateway throws a validation error and cannot restart

Root Cause

Description: The blockStreaming: true config key works on WhatsApp but is not recognized for the msteams channel. Setting it manually in openclaw.json causes gateway validation failure, and openclaw config set channels.msteams.blockStreaming true returns: Config validation failed: channels.msteams: Unrecognized key: "blockStreaming"

Summary

Description: The blockStreaming: true config key works on WhatsApp but is not recognized for the msteams channel. Setting it manually in openclaw.json causes gateway validation failure, and openclaw config set channels.msteams.blockStreaming true returns: Config validation failed: channels.msteams: Unrecognized key: "blockStreaming"

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open openclaw.json and add "blockStreaming": true under channels.msteams
  2. Attempt to restart the gateway — gateway fails to start with a validation error
  3. Alternatively, run: openclaw config set channels.msteams.blockStreaming true

Expected behavior

Teams should support blockStreaming: true the same way WhatsApp does, to prevent the streaming/typing indicator double-bubble in Teams DMs.

Actual behavior

  1. Direct file edit → gateway throws a validation error and cannot restart
  2. CLI command → returns: Config validation failed: channels.msteams: Unrecognized key: "blockStreaming"
  3. The same key works fine on channels.whatsapp without any errors

TL;DR

The blockStreaming config key is not recognized for the msteams channel, causing a validation error when set manually or through the CLI.

Guidance

  • Verify that the blockStreaming key is supported for the msteams channel in the OpenClaw documentation or release notes.
  • Check if there are any channel-specific configuration options or workarounds for msteams that can achieve the desired behavior.
  • Consider filing a feature request or bug report with OpenClaw to add support for blockStreaming on the msteams channel.
  • If the blockStreaming key is not essential, remove it from the msteams configuration to allow the gateway to start.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue is related to configuration and not code.

Notes

The blockStreaming key works for the whatsapp channel, but not for msteams, indicating a potential channel-specific configuration issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Remove the blockStreaming key from the msteams configuration to allow the gateway to start, and consider filing a feature request to add support for this key on the msteams channel.
