Create Project while winning potentials - Projects v3 api updated code
Hi all, I've been using the built in function to create a project while a deal is closed won and noticed it had some missing fields when trying to reference the zoho projects v3 api documentation. Specifically the project group had some issues when adding which caused me to have to change the project creation code from zoho.projects.createproject to an api call.
Also here is the link to the api documentation for reference: Projects v3 Api Docs
I wanted to share my code in case some other people had some issues similar because this took some time to figure out and a few messages to support. A couple important notes, with the built in function I used custom field column names to populate them, with the v3 call I can reference their api names. If youre having troubles finding the custom project fields api names I used these calls in crm as standalone functions to reference them:
- response = invokeurl
- [
- url :"https://projectsapi.zoho.com/api/v3/portal/[portal id]/module/[project module id]/fields"
- type :GET
- connection:"zohoprojects"
- ];
- info response;
Also to get your projects module information I did the same thing with this url:
Finally I will share my code for reference and some comments to show my changes,
- void automation.Create_Projects_for_Closed_Potentials2(String ProjName,String PortalName,String TemplateID,String Description,Date startdate,Date enddate,String id)

How to Add Users to your Organization in ZohoMail?
A better clarity so you can create other users to start using Zoho Mail. You can directly Add Users from the Control Panel to your Organization. You can invite users with the existing email address. If the person (user) already uses ZohoCRM, then you can import users from Zoho CRM. You can also import them using a .csv file. (if you are planning to add them in Bulk) In this topic, We will be discussing on how to Add and Invite users only. The Import options are self explanatory. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
