Auto-Create OneDrive Folder Structure Upon Lead Creation

Auto-Create OneDrive Folder Structure Upon Lead Creation

Hello,

New to Zoho and looking for help on a critical process automation I'm looking to implement. My company currently utilizes OneDrive for file management and the folder structure is Proposals -> Client Name -> Address (where I need to initially create the new folder) -> [Documents Folder, Word Proposal Template, & Excel Template].

I'm hoping to somehow automate this process by uploading documents to Zoho (which would go into the documents folder) and auto-creating the word proposal template and excel template that I already utilize. I also need to have the naming structure to be dynamic based on the CRM data entry. We already have a system for naming, so I'm looking for a high-degree of customization. I already utilize a python script to accomplish this task outside of a CRM, but our company is large enough that I want to integrate a CRM without creating additional work for myself each time I need to make a new entry. I often create 10 new projects a day and I don't want to double-up on entering the same data. 

Background Info:
We're utilizing a shared OneDrive account. AKA the owner has a personal OneDrive folder he has shared with all of us to operate out of. Hoping to continue using this, as we do not have SharePoint. I will listen to SharePoint suggestions as well, as I believe I could upgrade to Microsoft Business if needed to accomplish this task.

Thank you

          • Fetching leads from Zoho CRM into Zoho Creator, automatically

            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
