Zoho Books & Zapier Integration Failure

Zoho Books & Zapier Integration Failure

Hi everyone, I recently created a Zapier "Zap" which would allow us to send Invoices to Customers over Whatsapp Business API.
It works perfectly as intended while testing, however, every time I tried to turn on the "Zap", it would act as if it was turned on but it didn't.
I would then receive an email from Zapier stating that "Zap could not be switched on" - every time I try to turn it on.
So, I took it up to Zapier Support and they told me that the error was coming from Zoho Books and that it was because I need an upgraded plan. I did have paid plan - Professional on Zoho Books and also paid plan- Starter on Zapier.

I am at loss on how to approach this problem and would request community members' help on it.
Thank you!
