Zoho Creator Overview

The Zoho Creator API lets you build powerful applications and custom components
quickly, easily, and securely. It's a platform designed to let you quickly
develop custom components and applications, without having to worry about
server-side code or hosting. You can use it to create your own integrated
applications and custom components, and to securely incorporate them into your
existing business applications.

Using the Zoho Creator API, you can create:

  • Custom business applications, such as helpdesks, invoicing, or asset
    management
  • Custom single-page web apps
  • AutonDBS integration
  • Business rules and trigger-based automation
  • Data-driven user interfaces
  • Reporting and data visualizations
  • Custom integrations and plugins
  • Custom API endpoints
  • Third-party API integration
  • Desktop and mobile app support
