ZOHO CRM CSHARP SDK 6.0 for API version 6

The C# SDK for Zoho CRM allows developers to easily create C# applications that can be integrated with Zoho CRM. This SDK serves as a wrapper for the REST APIs, making it easier to access and utilize the services of Zoho CRM. Authentication to access the CRM APIs is done through OAuth2.0, and the authentication process is streamlined through the use of the C# SDK. The grant and access/refresh tokens are generated and managed within the SDK code, eliminating the need for manual handling during data synchronization between Zoho CRM and the client application.

This repository includes the C# SDK for API v6 of Zoho CRM. Check Versions for more details on the versions of SDK released for this API version.

NOTE

• The access and refresh tokens are environment-specific and domain-specific. When you handle various environments and domains such as Production, Sandbox, or Developer and IN, CN, US, EU, JP, or AU, respectively, you must use the access token and refresh token generated only in those respective environments and domains. The SDK throws an error, otherwise. For example, if you generate the tokens for your Sandbox environment in the CN domain, you must use only those tokens for that domain and environment. You cannot use the tokens generated for a different environment or a domain.

• For Deal Contact Roles API and Records API, you will need to provide the ZohoCRM.settings.fields.ALL scope along with the ZohoCRM.modules.ALL scope while generating the OAuthtoken. Otherwise, the system returns the OAUTH-SCOPE-MISMATCH error.

• For Related Records API, the scopes required for generating OAuthtoken are ZohoCRM.modules.ALL, ZohoCRM.settings.fields.ALL and ZohoCRM.settings.related_lists.ALL. Otherwise, the system returns the OAUTH-SCOPE-MISMATCH error.

• For Mass Convert API, you will need to provide the ZohoCRM.settings.fields.ALL scope along with the ZohoCRM.mass_convert.leads.CREATE and ZohoCRM.mass_convert.leads.READ scope while generating the OAuthtoken. Otherwise, the system returns the OAUTH-SCOPE-MISMATCH error.
