How to post notification messages in Cliq using IFTTT?


IFTTT (If This Then That) is an integration that allows you to connect your favourite applications with Zoho Cliq. This integration is done through applets available in IFTTT which connect with Zoho Cliq. After connecting an applet, when an event happens in an application, a notification will be triggered in Zoho Cliq.
