LOGIN REST api for Zoho CRM

LOGIN REST api for Zoho CRM

I'm developing a mobile app which is using Zoho CRM apis i.e fetching list of CRM users, records and insert record. Is there any Zoho CRM api for user login?

I've generated access token from web portal able to get response of insert/get records apis. Before accessing all these records, to validate users credentials(email id and password), which api should be used?

Note: I have checked generating access token api which inputs password which will be generated from web portal. Account password can't be used to generate access token. I cannot use this api for login unitl I get generated password from web portal.
https://accounts.zoho.com/apiauthtoken/nb/create?SCOPE=ZohoCRM/crmapi&EMAIL_ID=gg@g.in&PASSWORD=[Generated password and not accout password]&DISPLAY_NAME=test123

Thanks for the help.

Could anyone help with this please?

                                                                                                            • Side bar menu

                                                                                                              It would be great if you could stop the auto collapse of expanded menus when selecting a different module. It would save a lot of mouse clicks for a lot of users that frequently switch between sales & purchases as we do, it's easier to collapse them manually when not required !

Have anyone tried the Zoho connection to Microsoft Entra ID (https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/kb/one/admin-guide/directory-stores/articles/add-microsoft-azure-to-zoho-one?action=kbArticleFollow&actionId=4014605732522 ) This is a big operation and you

                                                                                                              Does anyone know of a way to allow multiple respondents to complete only one  survey and then also see (while completing the survey) the responses for their fellow colleagues who already answered that question? The situation is that our new customers have within their own organization, multiple employees that will need to assist in the one survey response. Since we don't always know which new respondent is the "who" that will have the answer, we need multiple respondents to be able to view the response

                                                                                                            • Can you remove the title from the forms?

                                                                                                              I am placing the iframes for my forms on my website.  Is it possible to remove or hide the title of the form so that it doesn't show up on the website? Is it possible to place text in the form like "clicking submit will take you to paypal." thanks

                                                                                                              Hi all, in the last week or so, we have lost the ability to sort tickets by Ticket Owner. Unlike the other columns which we can hover over and click on to sort, Ticket Owner is no longer clickable. Is it just us, or are other customers seeing this too?

                                                                                                            • Mask Name Field in Report

                                                                                                              Is it possible to have the Name field as "Last Name, First Name" in a scheduled report.

                                                                                                              Hi Zoho Team, I used to have a custom project view which showed all my active projects (not cancelled or completed) and the list was separated into projects groups. Some time ago, possibly a couple of months ago, I began to see all projects even cancelled

                                                                                                            • Unable to attach the file via the API.

We reviewed the following API documentation: 🔗 Upload Attachment While this API does allow file attachment via a URL, that’s not what we want — we do not want to attach public-facing

                                                                                                            • Zoho Books (UK) needs to be able to submit a CT600 CTSA return

                                                                                                              As well as a VAT Return, most (if not all) small businesses have to submit a CT600 Corporation Tax Self-Assessment. There are many providers who do this (like Xero) bujt not Zoho. Can you add this to the request list please? Many thanks Steve
