With Pipedream, you can trigger workflows on new emails, send emails automatically, and connect Zoho Mail to thousands of other services, streamlining communication processes, enhancing productivity, and enabling efficient data management.

Trigger Configuration#

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 Mail	`zohoMail`	`app`	This component uses the Zoho Mail app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling Interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the Zoho API on this schedule
Account ID	`account`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

Zoho Mail uses OAuth authentication.

Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Zoho Mail API.

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

ZohoMail.accounts.readZohoMail.accounts.updateZohoMail.organization.subscriptions.readZohoMail.organization.subscriptions.updateZohoMail.organization.spam.readZohoMail.organization.accounts.readZohoMail.organization.accounts.createZohoMail.organization.accounts.updateZohoMail.messages.createZohoMail.messages.readZohoMail.messages.updateZohoMail.messages.deleteZohoMail.attachments.createZohoMail.attachments.readZohoMail.attachments.updateZohoMail.attachments.deleteZohoMail.organization.groups.createZohoMail.organization.groups.readZohoMail.organization.groups.updateZohoMail.organization.groups.deleteZohoMail.tags.createZohoMail.tags.readZohoMail.tags.updateZohoMail.tags.deleteZohoMail.folders.createZohoMail.folders.readZohoMail.folders.updateZohoMail.folders.deleteZohoMail.organization.domains.createZohoMail.organization.domains.readZohoMail.organization.domains.updateZohoMail.organization.domains.deleteZohoMail.tasks.createZohoMail.tasks.readZohoMail.notes.all
