When to use this.

The "List Contacts (Zoho CRM)" action enables users to retrieve a paginated list of contacts stored in Zoho CRM, facilitating efficient management of customer relationships. Users can specify input parameters such as "limit" to define the number of contacts returned (in multiples of 25), "sort_by" to organize records based on specific fields, and "sort_direction" to determine the order of sorting. The output includes essential contact information, including contact ID, names, email addresses, phone numbers, account details, and timestamps for creation and modification, all categorized under semantic types like id, fullName, email, and date. This action is particularly useful for CRM administrators and sales teams looking to streamline contact management, enhance customer engagement, and generate targeted outreach campaigns.

FAQ.

Mostly. Fast actions fill the cell in a few seconds. Long-running ones run in the background and write back to the row when they finish, so you can close the tab.

No. A failed lookup costs zero credits. When a provider misses or times out, the waterfall moves to the next one and you only pay for the match you actually got.

No. Run it on one cell, on a selection, on the whole table, or on a schedule. Same action either way.

HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zoho, and GoHighLevel are bidirectional, with Salesforce coming soon. Smartlead, Instantly, Lemlist, HeyReach, Apollo Sequences, and Reply.io for outbound.
