Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/byungkyu/zoho-peopleWhat This Skill Does
The zoho-people skill acts as a secure bridge between your OpenClaw agent and the Zoho People platform. By leveraging managed OAuth authentication via Maton, this skill enables your agent to perform comprehensive CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on your HR data. Whether you are managing employee profiles, tracking attendance records, processing leave requests, or updating organizational structures like departments and designations, this tool automates the manual effort typically required in HR administration. The skill proxies API requests to Zoho, automatically handling token injection and secure connection maintenance through the Maton gateway.
Installation
To install this skill, use the following command in your terminal:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/byungkyu/zoho-people
Ensure that you have your MATON_API_KEY set as an environment variable in your system to allow the skill to authenticate correctly. For connection management and OAuth authorization, visit the dashboard at https://ctrl.maton.ai.
Use Cases
This skill is designed for administrative automation and HR data management. Common scenarios include:
- Automated Employee Onboarding: Creating new employee records in Zoho People based on data submitted from external recruitment forms.
- Attendance Reporting: Regularly pulling attendance logs for payroll processing or management review.
- Leave Management: Querying leave balances for specific employees or approving pending leave requests directly through natural language requests to your agent.
- Organizational Sync: Keeping organizational charts up-to-date by syncing department and designation changes from other internal systems.
Example Prompts
- "List the top 10 employees currently in the system and show their department information."
- "Check how many sick leave days John Doe has remaining in his balance for this year."
- "Update the designation for employee ID 5501 to Senior Software Engineer."
Tips & Limitations
- Security: Always rotate your
MATON_API_KEYif you suspect it has been compromised. Do not hardcode credentials in your automation scripts; always pull from environment variables. - Authentication: If a request returns a 401 or 403 error, verify that your OAuth connection is still 'ACTIVE' at https://ctrl.maton.ai. You may need to re-authenticate via the URL provided in the connection object.
- API Limits: Be mindful of Zoho People's internal API rate limits when scripting large-scale data migrations or mass updates. Use pagination where appropriate to avoid timeouts.
