Date Transfer Issue: Zapier to Zoho CRM Formatting Problem

Date Transfer Issue: Zapier to Zoho CRM Formatting Problem

Hi there, 

I am trying to transfer a date field from Zapier to Zoho CRM. I have tried several date formats, including using Zapier’s Formatter tool, but the data is rejected. What exact date format does Zoho CRM expect, and how can I correctly reformat the date in Zapier, including handling time zones if needed? I understand that Zoho should accept ISO 8601 format, so I am not sure why YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ does not work.

      I'd like to pull new leads from the CRM system, into Creator, on a daily basis. Is this possible?   Yes, it is possible. Zoho Creator and Zoho CRM are integrated with each other, enabling you to synchronize data between them. This is done by fetching records from CRM into a Zoho Creator form. In order to achieve this, you'll have to configure a workflow alert in Zoho CRM.  For instance, you can maintain the lead details in CRM on a separate form in Zoho Creator by fetching the details automatically

        Keeping track of employees workload can be daunting but also necessary.

This will ensure a balanced workload and also improve employee's efficiency. Zoho Projects lets you identify resources who are available to take up a job when you add or edit a task.  ​ Assign the task to team members and the calendar in the Start Date field will display
