Trigger Zoho Cliq Channel Workflows for API Messages

Trigger Zoho Cliq Channel Workflows for API Messages

Dear Zoho Cliq Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

We have noticed that reminders or messages posted to Zoho Cliq channels via the API do not trigger channel-based workflows.


This limitation means that any bot configured with a participation handler to execute specific functions does not get activated when messages are sent programmatically. Currently, only messages posted manually in the channel will trigger the configured Cliq functions.

We would like to request a feature enhancement that ensures reminders or messages sent via the API are capable of triggering Zoho Cliq channel workflows and associated bot functions.


This functionality would greatly improve the automation capabilities of Zoho Cliq and align with the workflow flexibility expected by users who integrate their systems with Cliq.


Thank you for considering this request. Please let us know if further clarification is required.


Best regards,
Ram

    • New in Zoho Chat: Threaded conversation at its finest best

      Perform effective team communication in Zoho Chat with our new 'Reply' option.   Converse and stay focussed on the parent conversation, rather than getting entangled in the web of several, never-ending sub threads.   To reply to a certain message, all you need to do is hover to the left hand side of the message. Then, click on the three dots to open a pop up menu. Here, click on the Reply button and type the reply to the message in the compose box and press Enter.   Voila, that was pretty simple.

If a VoIP push notification is not reported to the CallKit within a designated time window, iOS will terminate the app. If enough VoIP push notifications are not

    • Zoho Creator customer portal limitation | Zoho One

      I'm asking you all for any feedback as to the logic or reasoning behind drastically limiting portal users when Zoho already meters based on number of records. I'm a single-seat, Zoho One Enterprise license holder. If my portal users are going to add records, wouldn't that increase revenue for Zoho as that is how Creator is monetized? Why limit my customer portal to only THREE external users when more users would equate to more records being entered into the database?!? (See help ticket reply below.)
