Deploying Node JS Functions

Deploying Node JS Functions

There are two ways for you to script functions in Zoho CRM. Each have their own advantages. You can either,

  • Script in Zoho CRM's editor.
  • Upload a package.

Inline Edit

The editor in Zoho CRM lets you write the function code from scratch within the product itself. The scripting and deployment is taken care of by the editor.

You can script the code in the editor that pops up.

Upload Zip File

The other way is to script the function in any programming language editor and upload the folder to CRM.

The file that contains the function code must be in "zip" format.



Once the file is uploaded, the in-product editor opens up in Zoho CRM, where you can make modifications to the code.
