Overview

The Zoho CRM REST connector(https://www.zoho.com/crm/) OpenAPI specification.

Zoho CRM REST API provides the capability to unify customer data from across different applications and databases.

Key Features

• Programmatic access to create and manage resources via REST API
• Manage user accounts and profiles
• Secure authentication with API key or OAuth support

Prerequisites

Before using this connector in your Ballerina application, complete the following:

• Create a Zoho CRM account.
• Obtain tokens by following this guide.

Quickstart

To use the Zoho CRM REST connector in your Ballerina application, update the .bal file as follows:

Step 1: Import connector

First, import the ballerinax/zoho.crm.rest module into the Ballerina project.

import ballerinax/zoho.crm.rest;

Step 2 - Create a new connector instance

You can now make the connection configuration using the <ACCESS_TOKEN>.

rest:ClientConfig clientConfig = {
    auth : {
        token: `<ACCESS_TOKEN>`
    }
};

rest:Client zohoClient = check new (clientConfig);

Step 3: Invoke connector operation

1. Now you can use the operations available within the connector. Note that they are in the form of remote operations.

   Following is an example to add a record in Zoho.

   public function main() returns error? {
       Response response = check zohoClient->addRecord("contacts", {data:[{Last_Name: "NC"}]});
   }

2. Use bal run command to compile and run the Ballerina program.
