Create Skills with Deluge

What Skills Can I Build?

Since Zia skills are powered by Deluge, you can build just about anything. Here are a few examples:

Create a daily report

Ask Zia for a daily report and she can look up all the key information you spend time hunting down every day.

create-daily

Onboard employees

Teach Zia to answer questions about your company or help new employees understand the way you do things.

Get briefed on a customer

How it works

Go to the Zia Developer console from your Zoho CRM setup screen.

Add an action in your "Customize" tab. Enter your question or command, and any variants of it Zia should recognize.

Tell Zia how to respond by writing a direct answer (Answer a Question) or by constructing a response in Deluge (Perform an Operation).

Once you update Zia, your skill can be called from either the Ask Zia button in CRM or Zia voice on the CRM mobile app. The skill will be triggered by any of the phrases you set up within the action.
