Prerequisites  

Sign up for Zoho Cliq and create a channel with the required users. Only the members of this channel will receive messages.

Steps to configure the custom function

Before executing this custom function, you will have to configure the arguments. 

Configure the Arguments


First, configure Argument Values for all the parameters used in the custom function. You can either specify the Custom Value or choose a Layout Field from the dropdown. Layout fields capture dynamic values from job fields corresponding to the custom function. 

   

  • channelName: Specify the name of the Zoho Cliq channel. Ensure that the channel is formed with valid participants. 

  • messageString: Specify the message that needs to be posted to the channel.   


Once the arguments are configured, you are all set to execute the custom function.
