Overview
The Zoho CRM Custom node for n8n allows you to interact with the Zoho CRM API. Specifically, when configured with the Product resource and the Get operation, this node retrieves detailed information about a single product from your Zoho CRM account using its Product ID.
Common scenarios:
- Fetching product details to enrich data in automation workflows.
- Looking up product information before creating invoices, quotes, or sales orders.
- Synchronizing product data between Zoho CRM and other systems.
Practical example:
You might use this node to retrieve a product's details (such as name, price, and description) by its ID, then use that information in subsequent steps to generate a quote or update inventory records in another system.
Properties
| Name | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Product ID | String | ID of the product to retrieve from Zoho CRM. |
Output
The output is a JSON object containing all available fields for the requested product as returned by the Zoho CRM API. The structure will typically include properties such as:
{
"id": "1234567890",
"Product_Name": "Sample Product",
"Product_Code": "PROD001",
"Unit_Price": 100,
"Description": "A sample product.",
// ...other standard and custom fields...
}
- All fields present in the Zoho CRM product record will be included.
- No binary data is produced by this operation.
Dependencies

zohoOAuth2Api. - n8n Configuration: Ensure the Zoho OAuth2 credential is set up with appropriate scopes to read product data.
Troubleshooting
Common issues:
- Invalid Product ID: If the provided Product ID does not exist, the node will throw an error indicating the product was not found.
- Authentication errors: If the Zoho OAuth2 credentials are missing or expired, you may see errors related to authentication failure.
- API Limitations: Hitting Zoho CRM API rate limits can result in temporary failures; retry after some time.
Error messages and resolutions:
