Zoho Creator Overview#

Zoho Creator is a low-code platform that enables the building of custom applications tailored to business needs without extensive coding knowledge. Via its API, you can automate processes, manage data, and integrate with other services. Pipedream amplifies this capability by offering a serverless platform where events from various apps trigger workflows. You can use Zoho Creator’s API on Pipedream to create, read, update, and delete records, automate data flows, and link your custom apps with a myriad of other services for efficient, automated workflows.
