Salü vs Sali greeting in Switzerland

Often hear Swiss people say "Sali" which I think means salutations, a common informal greeting. But just found out someone writing "Salü" for the same meaning, which looks like it's pronounced differently. This one I've never heard in use.

What is the difference between these two usages? Does each belong to a different region of Swiss-German Switzerland? What are some other similars? On what occasions would they be inappropriate?
