Zoho Cliq Development

When to use this skill

Use this skill when implementing notifications, alerts, or messaging workflows directed to Zoho Cliq channels or buddies from Laravel applications using the realrashid/laravel-zoho-cliq package.

Features

• Publish configuration (vendor:publish tag: cliq-config).
• Send plain text messages using a fluent API.
• Create and send rich card messages with titles, descriptions, and images.
• Support for sending the same notification to multiple webhook endpoints at once.

Examples

Sending a basic server alert

use RealRashid\Cliq\Facades\Cliq;

Cliq::message('⚠️ Production server CPU usage is high!')
    ->to(config('cliq.channels.server_alerts'))
    ->send();

Sending a rich notification card

Cliq::card('New Feature Released', 'Our latest update is now live on production with Laravel 13 support.')
    ->image('https://example.com/logo.png')
    ->to('https://cliq.zoho.com/company/hooks/...)
    ->send();

Configuring default webhooks in .env

CLIQ_WEBHOOK=https://cliq.zoho.com/company/hooks/your_hook_here

Implementation tips for AI agents

• Encourage the use of environment variables or config files for Zoho Cliq webhook URLs to keep code clean and portable.
• Use card() for important announcements where visual prominence is needed, and message() for simple, quick logs or alerts.
• Check that the Zoho Cliq Incoming Webhooks are correctly generated in the Zoho Cliq app console.
