Add Claude in Zoho Cliq

​

Let’s add a real AI assistant powered by Claude to your workspace this week, that your team can chat with, ask questions, and act on conversations to run AI actions on.

This guide walks you through exactly how to do it, step by step, with all the code you'll need.

Just copy, paste, replace the placeholders and you'll be good to go.

By the end of this guide, you’ll have:

1. A Claude bot inside Zoho Cliq to have real back-and-forth conversations.
   
2. The ability to @mention Claude in any channel and reply to a message and ask Claude to act on it.
   
3. A message action to act on messages in Cliq by Claude. Additionally, pre-built actions to review code, generate mind maps, draft a reply for the selected message, or explain it like you’re new.

Before you start:
1. A Zoho Cliq account with Developer access.
2. An Anthropic API key
3. Basic comfort with Deluge (optional — all code is provided 😉)

A. How to get an Anthropic API key?

1. To get an Anthropic API key, sign up at the Anthropic Console (console.anthropic.com).

2. Navigate to the API Keys tab, and click Create Key. 

3. You must add credits via the Billing section to activate the key. Copy the key immediately, as it cannot be viewed again.

Note: In this guide, the API key is pasted directly into the code for simplicity. But never, ever share your API key to others and double-check before sharing screenshots or code.

B. Create a Connection 

Claude needs permission to: Read chat messages and Fetch attachments (like PDFs) when prompted, for that let's create a connection for it.  ⓘ Learn more about connections

1. Go to the Connections module (in Bots & Tools) → Create Connection
2. Add a Connection name, for eg. "readmessageandfile"
3. Select:
ZohoCliq.Attachments.READ
ZohoCliq.Messages.READ
4. Create
Click Create, then authorize the connection. Copy the connection name, you'll paste it into the handlers in the next steps.

How to start

Go to Zoho Cliq → Settings → Bots & Tools 

Claude Bot:

• Go to Bots → Create Bot.

• Name it Claude and give it any description of choice.

• First, let's create a Message handler to handle the conversations first.

• Click edit code and copy paste the below code in it (follow along the comments to understand what each part does)
  

One API endpoint. That's all.

Both the bot and the message action use the same single Anthropic endpoint: POST /v1/messages. The only thing that changes between them is the system prompt and what you put in the messages array. Once you understand that, the rest is just assembly.

Message Handler:

What does this do: Fetches last 10 (customizable - but keep message limit small ( around 10–15 to avoid token overuse)) chat messages for additional context and enables natural chat conversations

Message Action
What does it do: Allow Claude to act on any message or file.

ⓘ For files, we've extended this to only PDF file formats for now to keep implementation predictable and to avoid unsupported file formats

What we're adding:
1. When executed on any message, a form opens to prompt:

A. 🔍 Review code

Claude acts like a senior engineer who finds bugs, lists risks, suggest improvements, provides corrected code.

B. ✨ Explain like I'm new
Claude teaches you what it is, why it matters, how it works, an analogy or common mistakes for any concept.

C. 🧠 Make Mindmap
Converts content into a structured ASCII flow chart for explaining system designs, feature breakdowns or general product thinking.

D. 📌 Draft a reply

Give professional, concise business replies to address, asks clarifications, suggests next steps in a human tone. 

How to create:

1. Create a Message Action, name it Ask Claude and give any description of your choice.

2. Message properties:  Text messages, Attachments, Links

3. Enter code as instructed below:

(Copy the function name and replace it in Line. 14)

1. info message;
2. returnForm = false;
3. if(message.get("type") == "file")
4. {
5. fileType = message.get("content").get("file").get("type");
6. if(fileType != "application/pdf")
7. {
8. return {"type":"banner","text":"Only PDF files are supported for this action","status":"failure"};
9. }
10. }
11. inputs = list();
12. inputs.add({"label":"Choose an action","name":"action","mandatory":true,"type":"radio","options":{{"value":"reviewcode","label":"🔍 Review Code"},{"value":"explainthis","label":"🧠 Make Mindmap"},{"value":"ExplainlikeImnew","label":"✨ Explain like I’m new"},{"value":"Draftreplyforthis","label":"📌 Draft reply for this"}}});
13. inputs.add({"label":"More instructions","name":"additionalInstructions","placeholder":"You can provide additional instructions if needed.","min_length":"0","max_length":"500","mandatory":false,"type":"textarea"});
14. return {"type":"form","title":"Ask Claude","hint":"What would you like Claude to do? Choose an action or write your own.","name":"INSERT-FUNCTION-NAME","button_label":"Submit","inputs":inputs,"action":{"type":"invoke.function","name":"INSERT-FUNCTION-NAME"}};

Next, let's create a function and then link it up to the built-Message action to open the form:

---

Form Function:

1.Go to Functions → Name your function (Eg. askclaude) and add description
2. Select Form function
3. Create

Once created, in the Form Submit Handler, paste this code:

1. info form;
2. info message;
3. // Set up API headers
4. apiHeaders = Map();
5. apiHeaders.put("anthropic-version","2023-06-01");
6. apiHeaders.put("Content-type","application/json");

What's Next:

What you built today is just the foundation.

Shape it around how your team actually works. Extend it to turn discussions into action items, review PRs before they’re merged, generate standup updates, extract tasks automatically, or create knowledge snippets from resolved threads.

Start with one real pain point. Solve it well. Then layer more intelligence on top.

The structure is already there. The possibilities are yours.
