The Zoho Creator API toolkit lets LLMs interact directly with Zoho Creator — a low-code application platform — through Arcade. It covers the full lifecycle of records, forms, reports, and app metadata across workspaces.
Capabilities
- Record CRUD: Insert, update, and delete individual records or batches of up to 200 at a time from forms and reports, with form-level validation enforced on all writes.
- Bulk export: Initiate bulk read jobs to export large datasets from reports, then poll and retrieve job details and results.
- Metadata inspection: Fetch meta information for applications, workspaces, forms, form fields, reports, pages, and app sections — enabling schema discovery before constructing requests.
- Schema-driven execution: Write tools operate in two modes (
GET_REQUEST_SCHEMAthenEXECUTE), so the LLM can retrieve the correct request shape before submitting data. - Multi-region routing: A configurable server URL secret controls which Zoho data center the requests target.
OAuth
This toolkit authenticates via OAuth 2.0 through the Zoho provider. See the Arcade Zoho auth provider docs for setup details.
Secrets
ZOHO_SERVER_URL — The base URL of the Zoho Creator API endpoint for the target data center (e.g., https://creator.zoho.com, https://creator.zoho.eu, https://creator.zoho.com.au). Zoho hosts data in region-specific data centers, so the correct URL depends on where the account was registered. Find your region's base URL in the Zoho Creator API Getting Started guide under "Base URL" or "Data Center". Provide the full origin without a trailing slash.
