How to Connect Zoho Inventory as Data Source
The integration allows you to get from Zoho Inventory new invoices, orders, contacts, items or packages, transferring this data to other systems. For example, you can transfer new orders to CRM or GoogleSheets, and send them as notifications to yourself or a group of managers. You can also post data to the SMS or Email Distribution service. This will allow you to maximize the automation interaction of Zoho Inventory with other services and systems.
