Zoho CRM SMS Integration Steps
To integrate the SMS API with Zoho CRM, you can follow these steps:
- Log in to your Zoho CRM account and navigate to the "Setup" section.
- Click on "Developer Space" and create a new project.
- Add the necessary scopes to the project, such as "Contacts", "Leads", or "Deals", depending on where you want to send the SMS from.
- Generate a client ID and secret, and store them securely.
- Now, you can use the Zoho CRM APIs to send SMS through your SMS provider's API.
Here's some sample code to send SMS using your SMS provider's API:
Sample Code
function sendSMS(un, pwd, dstno, msg, type, sendid) {
var url = "https://www.isms.com.my/isms_send_all_id.php";
var data = {
un: un,
pwd: pwd,
dstno: dstno,
msg: msg,
type: type,
agreedterm: "YES",
sendid: sendid
};
var options = {
method: "POST",
payload: data
};
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
var result = response.getContentText();
Logger.log(result);
}
You can use this function in your Zoho CRM custom function or workflow rule to send SMS. The function takes six parameters:
- un: Your SMS provider's username
- pwd: Your SMS provider's password
- dstno: The phone number of the recipient
- msg: The message to send
- type: The message type (1 for ASCII, 2 for Unicode)
