Hello again,

• A Zoho Inventory account.

• A Zoho Cliq account.

• A Zoho Cliq auth token. Click here to learn how you can generate one.

• A suitable Zoho Cliq bot. Click here to learn how you can make one.

• Open the Zoho Inventory organization.

• Click on the gear icon from the top-right corner. 

• Select Automation from the drop-down.

• Now click on the button adjacent to +New Workflow Rule.

• Out of the four options from the drop-down, select Custom Functions.

• Now let's add a name to this workflow rule and make sure that there are no spaces between words.

• Select Sales Orders against Module.

• Add a Description if you need one.

• Now, the workflow type is going to be Event Based.

• The condition to set shall be, "when a Sales Order is created".

• Now copy and paste this code snippet inside the deluge pane:

authtoken = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"; //cliq authtoken
salesorderID = salesorder.get("salesorder_id");
salesorderdate = salesorder.get("date").toDate();
organizationID = organization.get("organization_id");
customername = salesorder.get("customer_name");
info customername;
payload = Map();
str = "Sales order " + salesorder.get("salesorder_number") + " for " + customername + " has been created. ";
info str;
payload.put("text",str);
res = postUrl("https://cliq.zoho.com/api/v2/bots/YOURBOTLINKNAME/message?authtoken=" + authtoken,payload + "");

• Navigate to the first line - authtoken = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"; and replace the XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX inside of the double quotes with the authtoken number that you have generated from Zoho Cliq (see prerequisites for instructions).

• You can also write your own custom message/modify notification content by navigating to the 8th line that says - str = "Sales order " + salesorder.get("salesorder_number") + " for " + customername + " has been created. ";.

• Now to link the code with the appropriate Zoho Cliq bot, navigate to the last line -  res = postUrl("https://cliq.zoho.com/api/v2/bots/YOURBOTLINKNAME/message?authtoken=" + authtoken,payload + ""); and replace this link with the one from your bot inside of Zoho Cliq. To get your very own bot link for this step:

• Open Zoho Cliq in a new window.

• Navigate to the bot you have created for this purpose.

• When you click upon it, you will spot a URL below its name in the pop-up window. Copy the URL and replace the above URL with the one from the bot. 

• Hit Save to finish.
