Hello Everyone,

A custom function is a software code that can be used to automate a process and this allows you to automate a notification, call a webhook, or perform logic immediately after a workflow rule is triggered. This feature helps to automate complex tasks and calculations. 

Lets take the below User Requirement - 

A customer wants a task to be automatically moved to a different tasklist once its status got updated.

// Replace yyyyy with move tasklist Id

moveTasklistId = "yyyyy";

endPoint = "https://projects.zoho.com/restapi/portal/";

moveTaskParameter = Map();

// Move Task

moveTaskParameter.put("from_todolist",tasklistId);

moveTaskParameter.put("to_todolist",moveTasklistId);

moveTaskResponse = invokeurl

[

url :endPoint + portalId + "/projects/" + projectId + "/tasks/" + taskId + "/move"

type :POST

parameters:moveTaskParameter

connection:"connectionprojects"

];

Creating custom functions in Zoho Projects is straightforward and well-documented. Zoho provides a range of built-in functions that you can use as a starting point, and you can also easily define your own functions using Zoho's scripting language, Deluge. Give it a try and see how it can save your time and boost your productivity!
