To connect Zoho accounts to Aurinko through OAuth2 authentication, you'll need to register your application in Zoho's API Console. Afterward, you can configure Aurinko to use your Zoho application credentials. If you encounter any issues registering your application, reach out to support@aurinko.io for assistance.
Begin by visiting to the Zoho API Console (use https://api-console.zoho.eu/ if you're based in Europe). Sign in with your Zoho account, or create one if you don't already have it.
Click Add Client (or similar option based on your interface) and select the "Server-Based Application" Client Type.
You’ll see a registration form:
Set Client Type to Server-Based Application.
Set Name to your app’s name (this name will be visible to users).
Enter Homepage URL
Enter the Redirect URI where Zoho will redirect users after they authorize access. This URL is essential for completing the OAuth flow. Read this article for more information.
Congratulations, you’ve just registered your app!
Next, set the required API permissions (Scopes) for your application.
In the Scope section, choose the necessary permissions based on the features you want to access. Here’s an example of how Zoho Scopes align with Aurinko’s permissions:
Mail.Read
mailScopes("READ")
Mail.ReadWrite
mailScopes("CREATE", "READ", "UPDATE", "DELETE")
Mail.Drafts
mailScopes("CREATE")
Mail.Send
mailScopes("CREATE")
Add all required permissions for your application’s functionality.
Head to Client Secret in your Zoho application and click Generate to create a new client secret.
Copy the client secret and save it securely, as you won’t be able to retrieve it later.
Finally, copy the Client ID and Client Secret from the Zoho app page.
Log in to the Aurinko portal, select your app, navigate to Settings, and switch to the ZOHO tab.
Copy-paste your Zoho OAuth Client ID and Client Secret, then click Save.
You’re now ready to start connecting Zoho accounts to Aurinko!
