Are you tired of switching back and forth between Zoho Cliq and LinkedIn to make a simple post? Well, there's good news! With the following instructions, you can post directly on LinkedIn from within Zoho Cliq. Let's get started!
Step 1: Generate an OAuth Token
To post on LinkedIn from Zoho Cliq, you'll need to generate an OAuth token. Here's how to do it:
- Go to the LinkedIn Developer page and create a new app by clicking on "Create app"
- Enter your app name, LinkedIn page, and app logo, then agree to the terms and conditions and click on "Create app".
- Navigate to the "Products" tab and request access for "Share on LinkedIn" and "Sign In with LinkedIn".
- Go to the OAuth Tools page and create a new access token.
- Congratulations! You've successfully generated an OAuth token.
Step 2: Configure the OAuth Token in Zoho Cliq
Now that you have your OAuth token, it's time to configure it in Zoho Cliq. Here's how:
- Go to https://cliq.zoho.com and navigate to "Profile" > "Bots & tools" > "Integrations" > "Command" > "Create".
- Enter a command name, hint, access level, and click on "Save".

- inputs.add({"name":"file","label":"Add a Photo","placeholder":"Please upload a photo to upload.","mandatory":false,"type":"file"});
- return {"type":"form","title":"Create a post","name":"linkedinPost","hint":"","button_label":"Submit","inputs":inputs,"action":{"type":"invoke.function","name":"linkedinPost"}};
- Next, go to "Profile" > "Bots & tools" > "Integrations" > "Function" > "Create".
- Name your function "linkedinPost", enter a hint, choose the function type as form, and click on "Save".
- Copy the code below and paste it inside the form submit handler.

- [

- type :PUT
- parameters:file
- headers:headersMap
- detailed:true
- content-type:"application/octet-stream"
- ];
- info uploadFile;
- if(uploadFile.get("responseCode") == 201)
- {

- createPost = invokeurl
- [
- url :"https://api.linkedin.com/v2/ugcPosts"
- type :POST
- parameters:params + ""
- headers:headersMap
- detailed:true
- ];
- info createPost;
- }
- else
- {
- return {"text":createPost.get("responseText").get("message"),"card":{"theme":"10"}};
- }
- }
- if(createPost.get("responseCode") == 201)
- {
- return {"text":"Post created successfully","type":"banner","status":"success"};
- }
- else
- {
- return {"text":createPost.get("responseText").get("message"),"card":{"theme":"10"}};
- }
- return Map();
- That's it! You can now use the command you created in Step 2 to post directly on LinkedIn from Zoho Cliq.
We hope this guide was helpful. Now, you can post on LinkedIn without leaving Zoho Cliq. Happy posting!

Is it possible to have the discount field on an invoice or estimate be a markup instead? It's the very same functionality that I am looking for - to be able to markup an individual item by either a $ or a % and have that cost added (instead of subtracted) to the item cost.
