Zadarma + Zoho CRM Integration – Missed Calls Saved as Contacts Instead of Leads

Zadarma + Zoho CRM Integration – Missed Calls Saved as Contacts Instead of Leads

Hello everyone,

I’m looking for input from anyone with experience using the Zadarma + Zoho CRM integration. Currently, I’m seeing that missed calls are automatically being created as Contacts instead of Leads.

From a CRM perspective, this doesn’t make much sense as it’s much more logical for missed calls to start as Leads, since Zoho allows you to convert a Lead into a Contact, but not the other way around. By defaulting to Contacts, it limits how we can work those missed opportunities through the pipeline.

Has anyone else run into this? If so, how are you handling it?

  • Do you have a workaround or automation to force missed calls to go into Leads instead of Contacts?

  • Or have you found a different way of managing this?

Any guidance or shared experiences would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

    • 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
