NotesAdmin Note: Custom domain configuration is available only under the Paid plan and the Zoho One suite.

  5. Add the CNAME Record
  6. Name / Host / Alias / CNAME: Enter your preferred subdomain (e.g., wwwchatconverse).
  7. Example: If your domain is zylker.org and your chosen CNAME is chat, your Cliq URL will be chat.zylker.org.
  8. Once you add a CNAME, map that entry with cliq.cs.zohohost.com (service URL) Refer the below table to add the one relevant to your data center.

InfoInfo: Changes usually take up to 48 hours.

HTTP to HTTPS Upgrade 

  1. Initially, your domain will be in HTTP mode.
  2. Our team will install an SSL certificate making your domain HTTPS secure.
  3. This process takes 3 business days after activation.
  4. During this time, cliq.zoho.com remains the default URL.

Scope 

The custom domain applies only to the Cliq application (https://cliq.zoho.com) and does not affect public pages on the Zoho website (e.g., www.zoho.com/cliq).
