How to Automatically Populate the Deal ID in the Parent Lead After Creating a New Deal with Blueprint?

void automation.FetchDealIDToMotherLead(int recordId)
    // Fetch the Deal record based on the passed ID in JSON format
    dealInfo = zoho.crm.getRecordById("Deals", recordId, "json");
    
    // Retrieve the Lead ID from the Lead_ID_before_conversion field
    leadIdJson = dealInfo.get("Lead_ID_before_conversion");
    
    if(leadIdJson != null)
    {
        // Extract the ID directly from the JSON object
        leadId = leadIdJson.get("id");
        
        // Update the Lead by setting the Deal_ID_after_conversion field to the current Deal ID
        leadMap = Map();
        leadMap.put("Deal_ID_after_conversion", recordId);
        updateLead = zoho.crm.updateRecord("Leads", leadId, leadMap);
    }
