Kaizen #191: Implementing "Login with Zoho" using Python SDK

      
Welcome back to another week of Kaizen!!

This week, we are diving into how to implement secure user authentication using Login with Zoho and integrate it with Zoho CRM through our Python SDK.

To ground this in a real-world scenario, we will look at how Zylker Academy, a training institute offering web design and development courses, uses an internal portal that connects directly to Zoho CRM. This setup allows course coordinators to manage student data without maintaining a separate backend database.

Zylker receives frequent student enquiries and uses Zoho CRM to manage all related information. Every course coordinator, academic advisor, and support staff member who needs access to student information is added as a user in Zoho CRM, with access permissions aligned to their role. Instead of using Zoho’s interface directly, Zylker’s team works through a custom internal web portal, tailored to their workflow. This portal connects directly to Zoho CRM, reading from and writing to it, but does not have its own database.

But before this portal can access any CRM data, it must authenticate itself securely. Every time a user opens the portal, they must log in with their Zoho account. Once authenticated, they will be granted access to the CRM modules and records they are authorized to work with. That is where Login with Zoho comes in.

What is "Login with Zoho"?

Login with Zoho is Zoho’s implementation of the OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code flow. It allows applications to authenticate users and access their Zoho CRM data without ever handling their passwords.
Instead of asking users for their Zoho credentials directly, the app redirects them to Zoho’s login screen. Here is how it works:
  1. The app redirects the user to Zoho’s login page.
  2. The user logs in and approves the requested permissions (scopes).
  3. Zoho sends back an authorization code.
  4. The backend exchanges this code for access and refresh tokens.
  5. These tokens are used to make authenticated API calls.
This flow ensures that users maintain full control over their data. They can revoke access at any time, and your application never handles or stores passwords. 
In Zylker’s case, every time a coordinator opens the portal, they are prompted to log in with their Zoho account. Once authenticated, they can immediately begin working with student records—all backed by Zoho CRM.

Use Case Implementation: Zylker’s Student Management Portal

To demonstrate how this login flow works, we have built a stripped-down version of Zylker's portal:
  • A front-end form to enter and view student data
  • A backend server that interacts with Zoho CRM via the Zoho CRM Python SDK
The application includes a simple form for capturing student details—name, college, course, email, and phone number. Submitted data is treated as a Lead in Zoho CRM.
The app allows users to:
  • Add new leads
  • View a list of all registered leads
  • Edit an existing lead’s information
  • Delete records if necessary
All actions go straight to Zoho CRM using its Python SDK. But before any of this can happen, the user must complete the login flow.

Sample Project Structure

Before going into the implementation details, let us briefly define the components of the project.

Frontend
The frontend is a simple static web interface built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It runs in the browser and handles user interactions and triggers backend API calls. These are the main files:
  • index.html : Main UI for login, data entry, and record viewing.
  • script.js : Contains the client-side logic to trigger login, submit data, and render records.
  • redirect.html :  A minimal page used to capture the authorization code returned by Zoho after login.
The frontend is served using any static server (e.g., Live Server in VS Code) and runs on http://localhost:5501/ in our example. 
Download the files from here.
Configuration Notes:
  • In script.js, update the redirect_url value in the login request to match your actual domain or port if you’re not using localhost:5501.
  • Ensure the URL in the Zoho API Console matches this redirect URI and port.
Backend
The backend is a Python server that handles all interactions with Zoho CRM via the Python SDK. It includes:
  • server.py : A custom HTTP server that:
    • Generates the Zoho login URL
    • Exchanges the authorization code for tokens
    • Initializes the SDK
    • Exposes endpoints like /create, /get_records, /update, and /delete
  • record.py : Contains functions to create, fetch, update, and delete records in CRM modules like Leads. Each function uses the Zoho Python SDK methods to perform a specific operation.
This server runs on http://127.0.0.1:8085/ in our example. 

Download the files from here.
Configuration Notes:
  • In server.py, replace the client_id with your actual client ID from Zoho's API Console.
  • In record.py, replace the client_secret with your actual client secret.
  • If required, change the front-end server’s host and port in the run() function at the bottom of server.py:
    def run(server_class=HTTPServer, handler_class=SDKInitialize, port=xxxx):

Sample project flow

      

Step 1: Register the application with Zoho API console

To initiate the login process, you need to register your application on the Zoho API Console. This is a one-time setup that provides your app with a Client ID and Client Secret, both of which are required to authenticate users and exchange authorization codes for tokens.
To register your application:
We will be using these values in the backend script (server.py)  that handles token exchange.

NotesNOTE: To support users from multiple data centres, make sure to enable multi-DC support for your application. You can do this by going to your app’s settings in the Zoho API Console and turning on the Multi-DC option.

Step 2: Implementing the login flow

Here is a walkthrough of the flow implemented in the project:

1. Page loads and triggers login

When a user opens the portal, the frontend automatically initiates the login sequence. It first makes a call to the backend to retrieve the Zoho authorization URL. 

In index.html, this triggers getRecords() on page load:
  1. <body onload="getRecords();">
In script.js, getRecords() calls the login() function:
  1. async function getRecords() {
  2.     login();
  3. }
The login() function sends a request to the backend to get the Zoho OAuth authorization URL.

2. Backend builds login URL

The backend responds with an OAuth URL that includes:
  • Your client ID
  • Scopes like ZohoCRM.modules.ALL
  • The redirect URI
In server.py, under do_GET, the /login endpoint generates the OAuth URL:
  1.    if parsed_url.path == '/login':
  2.             redirect_url = query_params.get('redirect_url', [''])[0]
  3.             scope = "ZohoCRM.settings.fields.ALL,ZohoCRM.modules.ALL,ZohoCRM.users.READ,ZohoCRM.org.READ"
  4.             url = "https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/auth?scope=" + scope + "&client_id=" + self.client_id + \
  5.                   "&redirect_uri=" + redirect_url + "&response_type=code&access_type=offline"
  6.             self._set_headers()
  7.             # Send response
  8.             response = {"url": url, "redirect_url": redirect_url}
  9.  self.wfile.write(json.dumps(response).encode('utf-8'))
Once the frontend (script.js) receives the login URL, it opens it in a popup window.
  1. const response = await fetch('http://127.0.0.1:8085/login?redirect_url=http://127.0.0.1:5501/redirect.html');
  2. const data = await response.json();
  3. const popup = openCenteredPopup(data.url, "PopupWindow", 600, 400);
Here's an example of the Zoho OAuth authorization URL format:
      scope=ZohoCRM.modules.ALL&
      client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID&
      response_type=code&
      access_type=offline&
      redirect_uri=YOUR_REDIRECT_URI

3. User logs in on Zoho

The user logs in with their Zoho credentials and is prompted to approve the app's access. Once they approve, Zoho redirects them to the specified redirect URI along with an authorization code and location parameter. The location parameter indicates which data centre the user belongs to.

4. Frontend captures the authorization code

The redirect page, a minimal HTML file (redirect.html),  reads the URL parameters and stores them in localStorage, then closes the popup:
  1. function setAccessToken() {
  2.     var hashProps = getPropertiesFromURL();
  3.     if (hashProps) {
  4.         for (var key in hashProps) {
  5.             if (hashProps.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
  6.                 localStorage.setItem(key, hashProps[key]);
  7.             }
  8.         }
  9.     }
  10.     setTimeout(function () { window.close(); }, 0);
  11. }

5. Token exchange and SDK initialization

Once the popup window is closed, the main window retrieves the authorization code and location and sends them to the backend’s /initialize endpoint.
In script.js:
  1. var code = localStorage.getItem("code");
  2. var location = localStorage.getItem("location");
  3. initialize(code, location, data.redirect_url);
  4. .
  5. .
  6. async function initialize(code, location, redirect_url) {
  7.     const response = await fetch('http://127.0.0.1:8085/initialize?code=' + code + '&location=' + location + '&redirect_url=' + redirect_url);
  8. }
In server.py, the /initialize endpoint handles SDK initialization:
  1. elif parsed_url.path == '/initialize':
  2.     code = query_params.get('code', [''])[0]
  3.     location = query_params.get('location', [''])[0]
  4.     redirect_url = query_params.get('redirect_url', [''])[0]
  5.     LeadsRecords().init(self.client_id, code, location, redirect_url)
In record.py, the SDK is initialized and tokens are stored.
  1. token = OAuthToken(client_id=client_id,
  2.                    client_secret=client_secret,
  3.                    grant_token=code,
  4.                    redirect_url=redirect_url)
  5. Initializer.initialize(environment=environment,
  6.                        token=token,
  7.                        logger=logger,
  8.                        store=store)  # FilePersistence or custom store
This exchanges the authorization code for:
  • An access token (valid for one hour)
  • A refresh token (used to get new access tokens)
These tokens are saved in a local file (sdk_tokens.json). This is configured using Zoho’s FilePersistence class during SDK initialization 

How are tokens linked to users?

The SDK maps each access and refresh token pair to a unique user-organization combination. This means tokens generated for different organizations by the same user are stored separately. Likewise, if a user generates new tokens for the same organization, the SDK updates the existing tokens instead of creating duplicates. This ensures that API calls always use the correct tokens tied to the authenticated user and their organization. 

To enable this mapping, the SDK retrieves the user and organization information in the background. This requires the appropriate scopes to be included during authentication, ZohoCRM.users.READ and ZohoCRM.org.READ. Without these scopes, the SDK cannot identify the user-org combination correctly, which can lead to multiple token entries for the same user. That is why, in our sample project, we have included these scopes explicitly in the server.py file during the SDK initialization.

Once the SDK is initialized, the user is logged in, and the app can begin making CRM API calls on their behalf.


Step 3: Accessing Zoho CRM

Once the user is authenticated and the Zoho SDK is initialized on the backend, the frontend can call custom backend endpoints like /create or /get_records. These endpoints use the authenticated SDK instance to make CRM API calls on behalf of the user.
  • GET /get_records?module=Leads : View all students
  • POST /create?module=Leads : Add new student
  • PUT /update?module=Leads&id=... : Edit existing entry
  • DELETE /delete?module=Leads&id=... : Remove existing entry

Deploying the sample project

To run this application, you will need two components:
  1. A frontend server to serve your HTML files (index.html, script.js, redirect.html). This can be done using any static web server (e.g., Live Server in VS Code).
  2. A Python backend server that handles login, token storage, and CRM API communication. You can run it using:
    python server.py
In the given example, both servers communicate over localhost. You should set your redirect URI accordingly when registering your app in the Zoho console.

Conclusion

Login with Zoho is a secure, OAuth-based mechanism that allows users to authorize your application to access their Zoho CRM data. In this example, we built a real-world use case, a student portal for Zylker Academy, that authenticates users and interacts with CRM directly using the Zoho CRM Python SDK.
By walking through the entire flow, you now understand:
  • Why OAuth is essential for secure CRM access
  • How to register an application in Zoho
  • What the login and token exchange flow looks like
  • How to implement "Login with Zoho" in your applications

What is next?

In this project, we have used a simple file persistence method to store the token files. But in a real world scenario, this may not always meet your business requirements. In next week's Kaizen, we will implement custom token persistence instead of file persistence in the current project. We will explain how to implement this using SQLite, In-Memory and List DBs. With that, you will be equipped to implement a persistence method that fits your application architecture and deployment environment.

We hope that you found this useful. If you have any queries, let us know the comments below, or send an email to support@zohocrm.com. As always, we would love to hear from you!!
