There is no way for a Contact or Lead to update any portion of their own record without requiring mandatory fields
If I want to send an email to contacts asking them to update their birthday and their address there is currently NO WAY TO DO THAT without requiring that they also view and submit any fields that you have made mandatory. You know some mandatory fields are not intended to be seen, much less updated, by our Contacts. Also, and for whatever reason, Zoho CRM does not allow us to pass Contact ID as a field/value to Zoho Forms, Zoho Surveys, or the Contact Portal. That means there is no way to prompt any

Card Scanner consistently unusuable
Hello Team ! We are migrating our ERP to Zoho One. Our marketing and sales team gets a lot of business card from events. The obvious way is to use Card scanner to upload our leads to the CRM.

API Related Records in bulk?
Using the API I can query for related records like Stage History for Potentials, but only one at a time. I've been able to do this using this doc: https://www.zoho.com/crm/help/api/getrelatedrecords.html Is there a way to query for more than one of these at a time? As in, I'm looking for a way to get more than one Potential's worth of stage history with a single request. The downside of doing it one at a time is that it 1) hits our quota limits very quickly even though we're on the "enterprise" plan,

A heads-up on duplicate invitation issue in Office 365 and what it means for Zoho CRM users
We'd like all our users using Office 365 integration to know that there is a duplicate invitation issue. How the integration works: We use Microsoft Graph APIs for our integration. There is no option to ignore the invitation in the Graph API at the time of syncing the events. On further probing, we found that their Exchange Client SDK has this option, but apparently Microsoft is likely to deprecate this SDK in the near future. We have now reached out to Microsoft for a clarification on how they

Use layouts to edit fields of accounts ?
Hi, Impossible to find help to "use layouts for Editing an account"... Layouts seems to be used for a lot of things, views also, but not to show only the usefull field to be modified for a specific action or population of users.

API V2 GET CRM Accounts returns missing data using php/Wordpress wp_remote_get()
Hi, when using the endpoint https://www.zohoapis.com/crm/v2/Accounts in Postman I get all the correct data, however using exact same call in php/Wordpress the data comes back really strange.

CRM Webform with Captcha does not work with the Edge browser
Hello, We are using a webform to track RGA's for customers and when we try to use the form with the Edge browser it doesn't work if the captcha is enabled. We get a 'Code is not correct' message.

Turn off autocomplete in Sheets
I'm not sure if it's b/c of the keyboard I'm using or if it's just that autocomplete is too sensitive, but I am CONSTANTLY misspelling words, specifically in Zoho Sheets, as I'm typing in data where autocomplete will finish my word while I'm still typing and ultimately cause what I'm typing to lose a letter and then what I'm typing to come out incorrect. Is there any way to turn that feature off or tweak it so that it stops cutting off letters?

Understanding Field Update and "Repeat this workflow whenever a lead is edited"
I have a workflow triggered on Field update 1. Does Field update only trigger when a field changes? For example: if the field value is "dave" and is updated to "paul" it will trigger if the field value is "dave" and is updated to "dave" it will not trigger At present, the action only fires once. 2.
