Publishing Extensions in Zoho Marketplace

Navigation to Extension Publication
  • After successfully developing, bundling, and testing your Cliq components, go to Bots & Tools and navigate to your extension on the My Extensions Page.

  • Hover over the extension name to reveal the option to Edit an extension.

  • If there is no further editing of the extension bundling, select the Publish option to proceed to the Extension Submission page.

 

Determining the type of Extension Release:
  • After reviewing, choose the type of extension release:

    • Major Release : If new functionalities or significant improvements are added, consider opting for a major release.

    • Minor Release : If the updates are limited to bug fixes and enhancements of existing features, classify them as minor releases.

  • The extension's versioning will be incremented accordingly based on the selected type.

 

Verification of Extension Details
  • Ensure that the overview and title of the extension are accurate and that it emphasizes the functionality of the built extension.

  • Confirm whether all the components are properly bundled or not. View all components at once or collapse them individually to verify them individually.

  • Provide relevant developer support details, such as a contact email and a hyperlink to your help center, so users can contact you if they have any queries.

 

Reviewing terms and conditions
  • Please carefully read the terms and conditions. Understand that once published, the extension will be available for users to install via the direct link provided.

 

Edit Extension Information
  • To modify the extension information on the extension submission page, click the Edit button at the top right corner.

  • The extension's title, description, and thumbnail on the edit page can be updated during the initial publication. In upcoming modifications, we can only edit the thumbnail and description.

 

Finalization and Publication of Extension
  • If everything is set, confirm the submission to publish your extension. After publishing, you will receive a link to share your extension with potential users.  

 

 

When and how can users install your extension?  
  • Once published, users with the extension installation link can install your extension for the organization.

  • Suppose you need to showcase the developed Cliq extension in the Zoho marketplace. In that case, the User (admin) must submit the extension for review via Partner Console.
