CRM & sales integration

Zoho CRM integration for AI workflows.

Create and update Zoho CRM leads, contacts, accounts and deals — in any Zoho data center.

Beta

In short

Fluxo Flow connects to Zoho CRM by signing in to Zoho; workflows can create a record, update a record and create or update a record and more, and start from new record and new or updated record. The integration is in beta.

Beta means it works but hasn't been tested against every account setup yet; actions and fields may still change. Found a problem? Tell us.

What you can do

Actions and triggers for Zoho CRM.

Actions

  • Create a record

    Creates a lead, contact, account or deal (Zoho workflow rules run as if created in Zoho).

  • Update a record

    Updates fields on a record by id (only the fields you list change).

  • Create or update a record

    Updates the record that matches on a unique field (Email by default for Leads/Contacts), or creates one.

  • Find records

    Finds records by email or phone (exact match), or by a word across text fields. Fill in one of them.

  • Get a record

    Reads one record by id.

Triggers

  • New record (checked on your plan's schedule interval)

    Starts a run for each new lead, contact, account or deal (checks the 100 newest each time).

  • New or updated record (checked on your plan's schedule interval)

    Starts a run each time a record is created or changed in a module.

FAQ

Zoho CRM questions, answered.

Which data center am I in?

Look at your browser's address bar when you're in Zoho CRM: crm.zoho.eu means Europe, crm.zoho.in India, and so on. crm.zoho.com is the United States.

Do Zoho workflow rules still run?

Yes. Records created or updated here trigger your Zoho workflow, approval and blueprint rules, just like records created in Zoho.

How fast do the triggers fire?

They check Zoho CRM on your plan's schedule interval (at least every 2 minutes). Each check uses Zoho API credits.

Is the Zoho CRM integration finished?

It's in beta: it works, but it hasn't been tested against every account setup yet. Tell us if something doesn't behave as expected.

Can I use Zoho CRM on the Free plan?

You can connect it, build with it and Dry Run on the Free plan. Running workflows live (triggers, schedules, webhooks) needs a paid plan.

What happens if the connection expires?

Access tokens are renewed automatically. If Zoho CRM revokes access (for example, the person who connected it leaves), steps that use the connection fail and show the error in the run trace; reconnect in Settings → Integrations.

Can I call Zoho CRM endpoints the integration doesn't cover?

Yes, if Zoho CRM has an API: save a key in the encrypted credential vault and call it with an HTTP Request step.

Can I test a workflow without touching my real data?

Yes. Dry Run walks through every step with simulated app calls, so nothing is sent until you run it for real or activate its trigger.
