Overview
The Zoho CRM Custom node for n8n allows you to interact with the Zoho CRM API. Specifically, when configured with the Resource: Deal and Operation: Delete, this node deletes a deal record from your Zoho CRM account based on its unique ID.
Common scenarios:
- Automating the cleanup of deals that are no longer relevant.
- Removing test or duplicate deals as part of data hygiene workflows.
- Integrating with other systems to ensure that deleted deals in one system are also removed from Zoho CRM.
Practical example:
Suppose you have a workflow that identifies deals marked as "Lost" in another system. You can use this node to automatically delete those deals from Zoho CRM by providing their IDs.
Properties
Name | Type | Meaning |
---|---|---|
Deal ID | String | ID of the deal to delete (required). |
Output
The output is a JSON object containing details about the deleted deal. The structure typically includes confirmation information such as the ID of the deleted deal and possibly a success message or status. Example:
{
"id": "1234567890",
"message": "record deleted",
"status": "success"
}
Note: The exact fields may vary depending on the Zoho CRM API response.
Dependencies
- External Service: Requires access to the Zoho CRM API.
- Authentication: Needs valid Zoho OAuth2 credentials configured in n8n (
zohoOAuth2Api
). - n8n Configuration: Ensure the Zoho CRM OAuth2 credential is set up in your n8n instance.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid Deal ID: If the provided Deal ID does not exist, the node will throw an error indicating the record was not found.
- Authentication Failure: If the Zoho OAuth2 credentials are missing or expired, authentication errors will occur.
- Insufficient Permissions: The connected Zoho user must have permission to delete deals.
Error messages and resolutions:
"No record found with given id"
: Check that the Deal ID is correct and exists in Zoho CRM."Invalid OAuth token"
or similar: Re-authenticate or refresh your Zoho OAuth2 credentials in n8n."Permission denied"
: Ensure the Zoho user has sufficient rights to delete deals.
