Description
Zoho People API integration with managed OAuth. Manage employees, departments, designations, attendance, leave, and arbitrary Zoho People forms (including cu...
Usage Guidance
Install only if you trust Maton to broker access to your Zoho People account. Use the least-privileged Zoho connection available, specify the intended connection when multiple accounts exist, avoid broad employee exports unless necessary, and review every create, update, or delete request before approving it.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is Zoho People HR API access, and the documented capabilities match that purpose: employees, departments, designations, attendance, leave, and custom forms with read and write operations.
Instruction Scope
The instructions explicitly limit use to Zoho People tasks, warn that HR data is sensitive, require explicit user approval for writes, and caution against unjustified bulk retrieval.
Install Mechanism
The package contains only a markdown skill file with examples; there are no executable install scripts, dependencies, or hidden setup commands.
Credentials
Network access and a MATON_API_KEY are proportionate for a managed OAuth API integration, though users should understand Maton proxies requests and manages the Zoho OAuth connection.
Persistence & Privilege
No local persistence or privilege escalation is present, but the skill documents persistent external OAuth connections that can be created or deleted through Maton.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install zoho-people - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/zoho-people - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.5
- Clarified that the forms API supports access to any form in Zoho People, including custom forms, not just standard HR resources.
- Strengthened security and privacy warnings: All write operations require explicit user approval; access to sensitive HR data is restricted to only specific records the user requests.
- Updated descriptions and headers to distinguish Maton platform endpoints (connection management) from proxied Zoho People API calls.

v1.0.4
- Changed service domain references from gateway.maton.ai and ctrl.maton.ai to api.maton.ai throughout documentation and examples.

- Removed the LICENSE.txt file.
v1.0.3
- Added a new `clawdbot` metadata block to the skill manifest, specifying an emoji and an environment variable requirement for `MATON_API_KEY`.
