What is Zoho Analytics?

Important update

The current version of Zoho Analytics has been deprecated. We do this when an app's API version or authentication scheme is updated. To ensure the smooth functioning of your flows, you must migrate or replace all deprecated actions with the new actions. With this new version, you will have access to more functionalities than in the previous one.

Key improvements

With the new version of the integration, you can now access all workspaces, including shared workspaces. In the previous version, you were restricted to using only your own workspaces, as shared workspaces were not supported in Zoho Flow.
You can use new actions like Create or update row, Create user group, Add group members, and Remove group members to better meet the use case needs.
With the updated Analytics API in the latest integration version, new actions and triggers can be introduced as soon as Zoho Analytics starts supporting them.

Steps to transition to the latest version

Clone the existing flow that uses the deprecated action.
If the deprecated action is Create row or Fetch row:
- Open the deprecated action block. This will take you to the new version of the action.
- You will be prompted to either create a new connection or choose an existing one, if available.
- You may need to reconfigure the entire action from scratch.
- To help with reconfiguration, you can refer to the original flow version (the one from which you cloned the new version) for mapping references.
Mappings used in Zoho Analytics actions are backward compatible(remains compatible in upcoming or connected actions). However, it is strongly recommended to update your mappings based on the fields available in the Insert variable section.
If the deprecated action is Update row or any action other than Create row or Fetch row:
- Open the deprecated action block. This will direct you to the read-only action mapping builder.
- Disconnect the deprecated action block from the flow and replace it with the new Update Row action available under Zoho Analytics from the left panel.
- For field references, you can refer to the original flow version (the one from which you cloned the new version) for the previous action’s mappings.
Since the action block’s variable name has changed, you will need to remap any linked action blocks.
As a workaround, you can replace the new Update row action block’s variable name with the deprecated action block’s variable name. However, it is highly recommended to update the mappings using the fields available in the Insert variable section.
After ensuring all deprecated actions are migrated/replaced with new actions, switch on the new flow and switch off the old one.
