New in Zoho Chat : Search for contacts, files, links & conversations with the all new powerful 'Smart Search' bar.

With the newly revamped 'Smart Search' bar in Zoho Chat, we have made your search for contacts, chats, files and links super quick and easy using Search Quantifiers.

 

Search for a contact or specific conversations using quantifiers, such as,


  • from: @user_name - to find chats or channel conversations received from a specific user.

  • to: @user_name to find chats or channel conversations sent to a specific user.

  • in: #channel_name - to find a particular instance in a channel.

  • in: #chat_name - to find a particular instance in a chat.

 

To search for files and links shared in Zoho Chat in a jiffy, use the quantifiers

  • hasfile: file_name - to search for a particular file.

  • haslink: link_name - to search for a particular link.

 

Wish to use more than one search quantifier? Your wish is our command!

 

Optimized for effective usage, the new Smart Search can also be used with a combination of search quantifiers to find a specific chat, channel, contact, file or link.

 

Lets say that you wish to refer the Product Architecture diagram for a new calendar app named ZylCal that is being created in your company, Zylker. It was shared in the team channel named #Development under the team 'ZylCal'.

 

You can go ahead and search using the following query:

      Perform effective team communication in Zoho Chat with our new 'Reply' option.   Converse and stay focussed on the parent conversation, rather than getting entangled in the web of several, never-ending sub threads.   To reply to a certain message, all you need to do is hover to the left hand side of the message. Then, click on the three dots to open a pop up menu. Here, click on the Reply button and type the reply to the message in the compose box and press Enter.   Voila, that was pretty simple.

      Hello everyone! With the iOS 13 update, Apple has updated its policy on usage of VoIP push notifications.

I'm a single-seat, Zoho One Enterprise license holder. If my portal users are going to add records, wouldn't that increase revenue for Zoho as that is how Creator is monetized? Why limit my customer portal to only THREE external users when more users would equate to more records being entered into the database?!? (See help ticket reply below.)
