Converting Client back to Lead

Hi everyone,

I am following the instructions here (https://www.zoho.com/crm/resources/solutions/convert-contacts-back-into-leads.html) to build a custom button to convert a client back into a lead.

I am hitting the error Failed to save the function

Variable 'contId' is not defined Line Number: 1

Here is the code that I am using (taken from that website):

continfo = zoho.crm.getRecordById("Contacts", contId.toLong());

mp = map();

mp.put("Last_Name",continfo.get("Last_Name"));

mp.put("Owner",continfo.get("Owner").get("id"));

mp.put("First_Name",ifnull(continfo.get("First_Name"),""));

acctname = ifnull(continfo.get("Company_of_Employment"),"");

if(acctname != "")

{

mp.put("Account_Name",acctname.get("id"));

}

mp.put("Lead_Source",ifnull(continfo.get("Lead_Source"),""));

mp.put("Description",ifnull(continfo.get("Description"),""));

mp.put("Email",ifnull(continfo.get("Email"),""));

mp.put("The_un",ifnull(continfo.get("industry"),""));

mp.put("Lead_Rating_5_Being_the_Strongest",ifnull(continfo.get("Lead_Rating_5_Being_the_Strongest"),""));

mp.put("LinkedIn",ifnull(continfo.get("LinkedIn"),""));

mp.put("Mobile",ifnull(continfo.get("Mobile"),""));

mp.put("Other_Phone",ifnull(continfo.get("Other_Phone"),""));

mp.put("Other_Zip",ifnull(continfo.get("Zip_Code"),""));

mp.put("Other_State",ifnull(continfo.get("State"),""));

callmap.put("Who_Id","");

updatecall = zoho.crm.update("Calls",call.get("id"),callmap);

info updatecall;

}

// Campaigns

relatedcamp = zoho.crm.getRelatedRecords("Campaigns","Contacts",contId.toLong());

attachid.add(attachementId);

}

for each ele in attachid

{

downloadFile = invokeurl

[

type: GET

connection : "convert_to_lead"

];

resp = zoho.crm.attachFile("Leads",create.get("id"),downloadFile);

info resp;

}

deleteResp = zoho.crm.invokeConnector("crm.delete",{"module":"Contacts","id":contId});

info deleteResp;

Also here is a screenshot of my attempt to argument map:

Please help! Is it because my contacts are Clients and not Contacts?

Thank you.
