Programmatically associate Zoho Projects projects to Zoho CRM

Programmatically associate Zoho Projects projects to Zoho CRM

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to automatically associate an existing Zoho Projects project to my Zoho CRM deal by using a custom function triggered by a workflow. I'm unsure about the correct API code i have to write in order to achieve that. Could you please help me?

 
Thank you,

Justin
