Zoho CRM v8 | Introducing Workflow and Actions APIs

Zoho CRM v8 | Introducing Workflow and Actions APIs

We are absolutely thrilled to announce the release of Workflow APIs and Actions APIs in Zoho CRM’s v8 API suite!  This powerful new set of endpoints gives developers unprecedented programmatic control over business automation.

For years, Workflow Rules have been the backbone of automation in Zoho CRM, helping businesses streamline processes, reduce manual tasks, and ensure consistency. Now, with the release of these APIs, you can manage these automations programmatically.

 What’s new? 

Now you can completely manage Workflow Rules through APIs:

A workflow is only as powerful as the actions it performs. They define what happens when a workflow rule is triggered. This release also unlocks programmatic management of the specific actions the you use within your workflows.

With the new Actions APIs, you can configure and manage different Actions:

But that is not all for Actions APIs. We have also rolled out a few new APIs to help you monitor, analyze, and troubleshoot your automations more effectively:

With these new Workflow and Actions APIs, you can take complete control of automation in Zoho CRM. To help you get started immediately, we have updated our official Postman collection with all the new Workflow and Actions APIs. Fork the collection and start testing these new endpoints right away.

We are incredibly proud to deliver this functionality that so many of you have asked for. Share your feedback and concerns with us on the Zoho Developer Forum, or write to us at support@zohocrm.com.
