To learn more about the Zoho CRM API, visit their page ([https://www.zoho.com/crm/help/api/api-methods.html](https://www.zoho.com/crm/help/api/api-methods.html "https://www.zoho.com/crm/help/api/api-methods.html")). The Zoho CRM connector is a "Cloud App" connector, meaning it retrieves data stored in the cloud. In the Data Center, you can access the connector page for this and other Cloud App connectors by clicking **Cloud App** in the toolbar at the top of the window. You connect to your Zoho CRM account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Zoho CRM connector user interface. General information for adding DataSets, setting update schedules, and editing DataSet information is discussed in [Adding a DataSet Using a Connector](https://domo-support.domo.com/s/article/360042926274?language=en_US "Adding a DataSet Using a Connector").

## Prerequisites To connect to your Zoho CRM account and create a DataSet, you must have the client ID and client secret associated with your Zoho CRM account. #### To obtain your client id and client secret: 1. First, log into your [Zoho CRM](https://accounts.zoho.com/signin?servicename=AaaServer\&serviceurl=%2Fdeveloperconsole "Zoho CRM") account. 2. Visit the Zoho API Console and click the **Get Started** button. 3. Select the Client Type. 4. Provide the client details and click **Create**. Your client id and client secret will appear. **Note**: Use the redirect URI as [https://oauth.domo.com/api/data/v2/oauth/providers/zoho-enterprise/exchange](https://oauth.domo.com/api/data/v2/oauth/providers/zoho-enterprise/exchange "https://oauth.domo.com/api/data/v2/oauth/providers/zoho-crm-enterprise/exchange") ## Connecting to Your Zoho CRM Account This section enumerates the options in the **Credentials** and **Details** panes in the Zoho CRM Connector page. The components of the other panes in this page, **Scheduling** and **Name & Describe Your DataSet**, are universal across most connector types and are discussed in greater length in [Adding a DataSet Using a Connector](https://domo-support.domo.com/s/article/360042926274?language=en_US "Adding a DataSet Using a Connector"). ### Credentials Pane This pane contains fields for entering credentials to connect to your Zoho CRM account. The following table describes what is needed for each field:
Field Name Description
Client ID Enter the client ID associated with your Zoho CRM account.
Client Secret Enter the client secret associated with your Zoho CRM account.
Zoho CRM Edition Select the Zoho CRM Edition.
Domain Select your Zoho CRM domain. To find your domain, log into Zoho CRM and observe the host address.
Example: After logging in, if your host address is [https://abc.zoho.com.au/](https://abc.zoho.com.au/) , your domain would be AU.
Once you have entered valid Zoho CRM credentials, you can use the same account any time you go to create a new Zoho CRM DataSet. You can manage connector accounts in the **Accounts** tab in the **Data Center**. For more information about this tab, see [Manage Connector Accounts](https://domo-support.domo.com/s/article/360042926054?language=en_US "Manage Connector Accounts"). ### Details Pane This pane contains a primary **Method** menu, in which you specify the data you want to retrieve.

Either enter credentials with full Zoho CRM system access or, through Zoho CRM, provide the account linked to Domo with the proper access. ## API Limits Free Edition * 1000 requests/day/organization Standard Edition * Min - 2000 requests/day/organization * Max - 5000 requests/day/organization or 250 requests /user license whichever is lower Professional Edition * Min - 3000 requests/day/organization * Max - 10000 requests/day/organization or 250 requests /user license whichever is lower Enterprise Edition * Min - 4000 requests/day/organization * Max - 25000 requests/day/organization or 500 requests /user license whichever is lower Zoho CRM will notify CRM administrators (Users with "Administrator" profile) if your organization exceeds the API limit.
