What should I do before configuration?
Before configuring the connector, you should decide and define the following points clearly:

- You need to provide mapping for the attributes you would like to get from Zoho CRM and sync to Insider. You can refer to the table below:
Column Name on Zoho CRM Table | Attribute Key on Insider's InOne | Identifier | Attribute Type on Insider | Attribute Type |
---|---|---|---|---|
Yes | Default Attribute | String | ||
phone_number | phone number | No | Custom Attribute | String |
How can I set up Zoho CRM?

- Log in to your ZOHO CRM account here.
- Click on the +Add Client button on the console screen to create a new client.
- When you click on the button, you will see a page with the title Choose a client type. Select the Server Based Applications option.
