Zoho Cliq Overview#

The Zoho Cliq API allows you to automate and integrate your team communication within Zoho Cliq. With this API, you can create bots to send messages, manage channels and users, and streamline notifications to your team about events from other applications or services. Using Pipedream, you can harness these capabilities to create powerful workflows that trigger actions within Zoho Cliq or react to events happening in Cliq to perform tasks in other apps.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/new-message.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "zoho_cliq-new-direct-message",
  name: "New Direct Message",
  description: "Emit new event when a new direct message is received. [See the documentation](https://www.zoho.com/cliq/help/restapi/v2/#Get_Messages)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    chat: {
      propDefinition: [
        common.props.app,
        "chat",
      ],
    },
  },
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getChatId() {
      return this.chat;
    },
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Zoho Cliq	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Zoho Cliq app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Trigger Authentication#

Zoho Cliq uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Zoho Cliq account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Zoho Cliq and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Zoho Cliq API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

ZohoCliq.Buddies.READZohoCliq.Webhooks.CREATEZohoCliq.Channels.READZohoCliq.Chats.READZohoCliq.Bots.READZohoCliq.Organisation.READZohoCliq.Reminders.CREATEZohoCliq.Users.READZohoCliq.Messages.READ

Amazon SES Overview#

Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) is a powerful cloud-based email sending service designed to help digital marketers and application developers send marketing, notification, and transactional emails. With the SES API, you can reliably send emails at scale, manage sender reputations, view email sending statistics, and maintain a high deliverability rate. Leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can integrate SES seamlessly into serverless workflows, automate email responses based on triggers from other apps, and analyze the effectiveness of your email campaigns by connecting to data analytics platforms.
