Mobile SDK (SalesIQ)

A software development kit from Zoho SalesIQ for iOS and Android that embeds live chat and visitor tracking directly inside native mobile applications.

What Is the Mobile SDK in Zoho SalesIQ?

The Zoho SalesIQ Mobile SDK is a development toolkit for iOS (Swift/Objective-C) and Android (Kotlin/Java) that allows you to embed live chat, in-app messaging, and visitor tracking directly inside your native mobile application. Users can chat with support or sales without leaving the app.

Features

The mobile SDK supports all core SalesIQ features: live chat with operators, bot conversations, proactive in-app messages triggered by user actions within the app, chat transcripts, and visitor identification (linking app users to CRM contacts by email). Push notifications alert users to operator replies even when the app is in the background.

Implementation

Add the SalesIQ SDK to your app via CocoaPods (iOS) or Gradle (Android), initialise it with your app key and access token, and optionally identify users by passing their email address when they log in. A developer with mobile development experience can typically implement basic chat in a few hours.

Which mobile platforms does the Zoho SalesIQ Mobile SDK support?

The Zoho SalesIQ Mobile SDK supports iOS (Swift and Objective-C) and Android (Java and Kotlin). Both SDKs provide the same core capabilities: embedding the chat widget in the app, identifying logged-in users, tracking custom events, and triggering proactive messages. React Native and Flutter wrappers are also available for cross-platform apps.

How do you identify a logged-in user to Zoho SalesIQ through the Mobile SDK?

After the user logs in to the app, call the SalesIQ SDK’s setVisitorName, setVisitorEmail, and setVisitorContactNumber methods with the user’s details. This identifies the visitor in SalesIQ, allowing chat history to persist across sessions and CRM push to match the visitor against existing contact records.
