They can connect to any third party service, and bring in
Cliq has "Mute" turned on after the windows app is restarted when it was NOT muted before
Please fix this by NOT turning MUTE ON by default so notifications are not missed. Muting seems to also disable showing @ mentions. I tested this with someone sitting next to me in DMs. I would not expect muting to prevent seeing the @ indicator for a new mention while I am using the cliq client. Please let me know if you'd like a more thorough explanation.

Alter escape key function that cannot be undone
Hello, I am wondering where to submitted change requests. I am unfamiliar with the ZOHO support system. I would like an option to disable or to remove the functionality of the escape key to delete all of the text in the current chat box. I found this by pressing escape multiple times when trying to remove a reply, forward, or user search start at the top of the window. I don't want the escape key to have this function. If I wanted to delete all the text, I would select it and press delete. The worst

Cliq Bots - Create preset actions for your bot using the menu handler
Menu Handler provides an easy way to trigger actions with just one click! Imagine a news bot having the list of categories as a menu, instead of asking the bot to get the news for a particular category, the user can click on any particular menu action and get the details. For example, a custom menu action 'Help' dedicated to educating the users about the bot's functionality and how to interact with the bot will provide to be of great use! Working of the bot menu handler The workflow for the menu
Cliq Bots - How to involve bots in your conversation and increase productivity?
Cliq bots share a few similarities to Cliq users; that is all bots have a profile where you can set their display pictures, a status and can be mentioned in a conversation too! Just typing ' @ ' followed by the bot name will mention the bot in a conversation. We're drawing this analogy here to convey the idea behind a bot's mention handler. This handler is prompted to act when a bot is mentioned by a user in a conversation. What happens when you mention a bot? The handler will enable the bot to
The Slash Command Series - Command suggestions - The power of choosing!
Command suggestions are a cluster of simple inputs given by the system to the user. Simply put, a suggestion list displays options for the command input. The idea behind using command suggestions is to make it easy for the end user, by showing the inputs while executing a command. Most often we find ourselves in a quintessential position where we're looking for a file or a folder packed away in a corner! Think about situations where your Manager and your Mentor ask you to share two different files?

Scheduler and a Random Number Generator
I want to generate a random number in the Scheduler so that I can choose one of the items from a list. As I understood, there is no random number generator in Deluge. However, it was suggested to use zoho.currenttime.toLong() and use the microseconds places to generate the random numbers. However, the Scheduler runs at a fixed time because of which the last three bits are always zero. Is there any other way to generate a random number from inside the Scheduler?
Scheduler and Bot Integration
Hey, I am working on a bot which asks "certain user" "certain specific questions" at a scheduled time interval on a recurring basis. E.g. agenda and a mood every morning. It then saves these answers into the database and report these answers on a specific channel. How can I integrate a scheduler with a bot integration? Or is there some other approach that I should start with? Thanks

Anyway cliq does not show at all the image. Any clue about what can be happening?

Cliq Bots - Let your bot welcome it's subscribers via the welcome handler
In this post, we're going to shed light on how important it is for a bot to greet subscribers with a welcome message. We'll also be looking at how to configure a simple yet effective welcome handler! A welcome message is the first and the most important action / interaction performed by your bot. But why is it so important? A message that explains the user what the bot does will provide them with a concrete understanding of how the bot can help them. Including a call to action, such an instant
Cards & Functions: An inside view into how Cliq's custom buttons work!
Message cards are simple templates which can be used to customise messages. In other words, responses on triggering an integration component (commands/ bots/ message actions) can be customised as a message easily with the templates. A message card can be styled with a title, image, buttons, table and so on! Adding a button helps in making the message more interactive and also provides a call to action. So where does a function fit here? A button can be triggered to perform an action on click, only

Message Actions: Do more than just Forward, Reply on your chat messages by creating custom actions
Message actions are user actions or interactions performed on a message. Usually, when a message is sent or received, a user is likely to perform some task after the message has been sent/received. All chat interfaces come with a default set of message actions such as Reply, Forward, Delete, Share and so on. But what if these options do not satisfy your requirements? Cliq solves this shortcoming by providing an option to create custom message actions! Let us consider a situation where the #design

Deluge Code Formatting
When writing context handlers it becomes extremely difficult to read the code because you can't have any line spaces. Any possibility of improving this? EG: Current code works { context = '{"id":"Room Service","timeout":"300","params":[{"name":"room service","question":"Great!
Cliq Bots - Building conversational bots with a series of questions and user inputs!
We all know how important it is for a bot to manage the conversation flow with a user. And so, here we bring to you the bot context handler! This post introduces the concept of a context and how a chain of questions and user inputs can be achieved through the context. Simply put, the context allows the bot to ask a series of questions pertaining to a topic of interest. The responses or the user inputs are then collected to perform an action at the end via the context handler. Sounds interesting?

Bot Basics - Cliq bots for productivity, fun and much more
When we think of bots, the first thing that comes to our mind is how they make lives easier by taking care of repetitive tasks, we humans would otherwise do. It is evident that bots are supportive by taking form as our personal assistant or a friend. Isn't it cool to have a bot notify you about a task, remind you just in time about a meeting, get your Facebook notifications, posts your tweet? The chatbot market is booming at a crazy rate, now's the time to build your bot and push it out as an extension
