Node JS SDK - An Overview

Node JS SDK offers a way to create client node js applications that can be integrated with Zoho CRM. This SDK makes the access and use of necessary CRM APIs easy. In other words, it serves as a wrapper for the REST APIs, making it easier to use the services of Zoho CRM.

A point to note would be that the developer of the client application should create programming code elements along with configuration-related properties files, interface implementations, instances or objects. Authentication to access Zoho CRM APIs is through OAuth authentication mechanism. Invariably, HTTP requests and responses are taken care by SDK.

A sample of how an SDK acts a middleware or interface between Zoho CRM and a client java application.

Node JS SDK allows you to:

1. Exchange data between Zoho CRM and the client application where the CRM entities are modelled as classes.
   
2. Declare and define CRM API equivalents as simple functions in your node JS application.
   
3. Push data into Zoho CRM, by accessing appropriate APIs of the CRM Service.
   

Response Handling

All API calls will give the actual API response given by Zoho APIs, except file download. For file download, the response will contain an extra field filename.

Error Handling

All errors will be thrown explicitly and care should be taken in catching the same.
