Creating a Connection via Deluge in Writer

Creating a Connection via Deluge in Writer

Connections are used to authenticate requests that are sent to other services and can be utilized in Custom functions. To retrieve the required information from another service into Zoho Writer, you need to create a connection that integrates Zoho Writer with the other service and then write a function that allows you to execute this connection as needed.

To create a connection, follow the steps below within your Writer document:

  1. Navigate to Deluge Editor in the document.

  2. Now, click on Connections at the top right of the page.




  3. Then, click on Go to Connections and click on Create Connection.


To create a connection in the default services:

  1. Go to the Default Services tab under "Services" on the left panel.

  2. Select the respective service name and click Create Connection.




  3. Provide the following information under connection details:

    1. Connection Name: Display name of your connection.

    2. Connection Link Name: Link names must be unique and can be used in Deluge integration tasks and invoke URL scripts to establish authentication.The link name that you provide must satisfy the following conditions:

      1. It must begin with a lowercase letter.

      2. It can contain lowercase letters, numbers, and underscores (_).

      3. It can contain up to 50 characters.

    3. Scope (applicable only to OAuth 2 auth type): Scopes required to perform integration as specified in the desired service's API documentation. 



  1. After filling in the field values, click on Create and Connect.

  2. A summary of the created connection will be displayed.

  3. Upon successful authorization, the connection will be created and listed on your connections page under "My Connections".
