Zoho CRM Overview#

Zoho CRM API is a powerful and versatile tool to create business applications.
It provides an easy to use platform for developers to create customer-facing
applications for businesses of all sizes. With the Zoho CRM API, developers can
create applications for sales, marketing, customer support, and even financial
data management.

The Zoho CRM API provides access to a comprehensive set of features that allow
developers to build efficient, reliable and intuitive business solutions. These
features include:

Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Automation Tools
Reporting and Analytics
Customization and Deployment

Here are some examples of what developers can build using the Zoho CRM API:

Automate customer interactions and manage customer relationship workflows
Send targeted emails based on customer segmentation or customer behavior
Leverage the reporting and analytics capabilities of the Zoho CRM to gain
insights into customer data
Create dynamic dashboards and reports to better understand customer
engagement and performance
Develop customer relationship management apps to capture customer information
and interact with customers
Integrate the Zoho CRM with external applications and services to build
comprehensive customer-facing applications.

Getting Started

First, sign up for Pipedream at https://pipedream.com.
Create a new workflow.
Select a trigger for your workflow (for example, HTTP or Cron).
Add a new step and search for "Zoho CRM". This will display actions associated with the Zoho CRM app. You can choose to either "Run Node.js code with Zoho CRM" or select one of the prebuilt actions for performing common API operations.
Once you've added a step, press the Connect Zoho CRM button near the top. If this is your first time authorizing Pipedream's access to your Zoho CRM account, you'll be prompted to accept that access, and Pipedream will store the authorization grant to enable the workflow to access the API. If you've already linked a Zoho CRM account via Pipedream, pressing Connect Zoho CRM will list any existing accounts you've linked.

Once you've connected your account, you can run your workflow and fetch data from the API. You can change any of the code associated with this step, changing the API endpoint you'd like to retrieve data from, or modifying the results in any way.

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Zoho CRM	`zohoCrm`	`app`	This component uses the Zoho CRM app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.

Zoho CRM uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Zoho CRM account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Zoho CRM and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Zoho CRM API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

ZohoCRM.settings.allZohoCRM.users.allZohoCRM.org.allZohoCRM.modules.allZohoCRM.bulk.allZohoCRM.notifications.readZohoCRM.notifications.createZohoCRM.notifications.updateZohoCRM.notifications.deleteZohoCRM.coql.READZohoCRM.functions.execute.READZohoCRM.functions.execute.CREATEZohoCRM.templates.email.READZohoCRM.templates.inventory.READ
