Zoho Cliq 4.0: Developer Platform

Zoho Cliq 4.0: Developer Platform

Greetings, Cliq community!

We are excited to announce the latest updates in the Zoho Cliq Developer Platform as part of our Cliq 4.0 release. This release brings a host of new features and enhancements that are aimed at making the development experience in Cliq even better.

Whether you are a seasoned Cliq developer or just starting out, we believe you will find these new features useful. So, without further ado, let's dive into what's new in Cliq 4.0!
  • Kiosk mode for widgets: Get an enriched experience of your widgets in Zoho Cliq with the all-new Kiosk mode (Form view) supported for the Zoho Cliq mobile application. With this mode, you can get a more focused display of the widget when viewing it in with your mobile app.


  • Map view for tracking updates: We now support a dedicated map view for widgets. For instance, if you are building a cab-booking widget for your employees, you can configure the map view, so users can track where the cabs are located in the widget itself.


  • Form view handler: You can now generate a permalink for forms with the all-new form view handler. With this permalink, you no longer have to rely on other internal tools to invoke a form. You can directly access the form using the permalink and share them with others. For example, if you'd like to collect employee feedback about workplace policies, you can generate a QR code for your survey form and include it on posters placed around the office. Once employees scan the QR code, they will be able to access the form and submit their feedback. 
  • Catalogues in forms: Build booking and ordering apps that require inventory management with the latest catalogue component in forms.

We're looking forward to seeing the amazing projects that developers will create using this platform. Happy coding!

                                                    Bots are just like your buddies with whom you can interact. They carry out your tasks, keep you notified about your to-dos and come in handy when you need constant updates from a third party application.  So, how can you make your bot respond to a message? The bot message handler is a piece of code triggered when a message is sent to the bot. Message handlers help you customise your bot responses to make it look conversational. The message input from the user can be either a string or an option selected

But the only way is in the Settings of Zoho Desk. It would be great to have a switch in the ticket just to disbale for once the notification mail when close the ticket.

We are small business owners, not developers. We currently use a wide range of Zoho products. We sometimes think about the possibility of either moving or just starting from scratch on Zoho Sites.

It seems that you need to click into each deparment to view the new tickets instead of just seeing a global dashboard of all tickets across all departments. Seems very odd, is this correct or are we missing something? If this is currently not possible, can someone from Zoho let us know if a global dashboard view is going to be developed soon? How soon? This is going to be a dealbreaker for us as we have lots of departments...

It looks like all department knowledge bases are displayed if they are public, and there is no way to hide one from the help center while keeping it accessible via a permalink URL. For example, lets say I have one KB for Clients and one for Employees.    I want to keep my Clients KB public, and also want the Employees KB to be public, but NOT displayed in the help center.
