Zoho CRM Overview#

The Zoho CRM API enables the manipulation and retrieval of data within Zoho CRM, a platform for managing your sales, marketing, support, and inventory in a single system. Leveraging this on Pipedream, you can automate tasks like syncing contacts, updating lead statuses, or creating custom CRM operations that trigger actions in other apps. Pipedream's serverless platform allows for real-time data processing, transforming, and orchestrating workflows that respond to events in Zoho CRM with minimal latency.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/http-based/common-predefined-module.mjs";
import crudOps from "../common/http-based/common-crud-operations.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "zoho_crm-new-or-updated-contact",
  name: "New or Updated Contact (Instant)",
  description: "Emits an event each time a new contact is created or updated in Zoho CRM",
  version: "0.0.10",
  type: "source",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getModuleName() {
      return "Contact";
    },
    getSupportedOps() {
      return [
        crudOps.createOpData(),
        crudOps.editOpData(),
      ];
    },
  },
};

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 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.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Subscription Renewal Timer	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Zoho CRM webhooks subscriptions have an expiration date of up to 1 day. This event source renews the subscription every 12 hours by default.

Trigger Authentication#

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

TrackingTime Overview#

The TrackingTime API enables the automation of time tracking, task management, and reporting processes. In Pipedream, you can use this API to create powerful workflows that connect TrackingTime with other apps to streamline productivity, enhance project management, and generate insights on time allocation. Automate tasks based on project activities, sync time entries with calendars, or trigger notifications based on tracked time data.
