ZOHO CRM PYTHON SDK

Table Of Contents

Overview

Zoho CRM PYTHON SDK offers a way to create client Python applications that can be integrated with Zoho CRM.

Registering a Zoho Client

Since Zoho CRM APIs are authenticated with OAuth2 standards, you should register your client app with Zoho. To register your app:

  • Visit this page https://api-console.zoho.com

  • Click on ADD CLIENT.

  • Choose a Client Type.

  • Enter Client Name, Client Domain or Homepage URL and Authorized Redirect URIs then click CREATE.

  • Your Client app would have been created and displayed by now.

  • Select the created OAuth client.

  • Generate grant token by providing the necessary scopes, time duration (the duration for which the generated token is valid) and Scope Description.

Environmental Setup

Python SDK is installable through pip. pip is a tool for dependency management in Python. SDK expects the following from the client app.

  • Client app must have Python(version 3 and above)

  • Python SDK must be installed into client app through pip.

Including the SDK in your project

You can include the SDK to your project using:

  • Install Python from python.org (if not installed).

  • Install Python SDK

    • Navigate to the workspace of your client app.
    • Run the command below:
    pip install zohocrmsdk2_0==2.x.x
    
  • The Python SDK will be installed in your client application.

Token Persistence

Token persistence refers to storing and utilizing the authentication tokens that are provided by Zoho. There are three ways provided by the SDK in which persistence can be utilized. They are DataBase Persistence, File Persistence and Custom Persistence.

Table of Contents

Implementing OAuth Persistence

Once the application is authorized, OAuth access and refresh tokens can be used for subsequent user data requests to Zoho CRM. Hence, they need to be persisted by the client app.

The persistence is achieved by writing an implementation of the inbuilt Abstract Base Class TokenStore, which has the following callback methods.

  • get_token(self, user, token) - invoked before firing a request to fetch the saved tokens. This method should return implementation of inbuilt Token Class object for the library to process it.

  • save_token(self, user, token) - invoked after fetching access and refresh tokens from Zoho.

  • delete_token(self, token) - invoked before saving the latest tokens.

  • get_tokens(self) - The method to get the all the stored tokens.

  • delete_tokens(self) - The method to delete all the stored tokens.

Note:

  • user is an instance of UserSignature Class.

  • token is an instance of Token Class.

DataBase Persistence

In case the user prefers to use default DataBase persistence, MySQL can be used.

  • The database name should be zohooauth.

  • There must be a table name oauthtoken with the following columns.

    • id int(11)

    • user_mail varchar(255)

    • client_id varchar(255)

    • refresh_token varchar(255)

    • access_token varchar(255)

    • grant_token varchar(255)

    • expiry_time varchar(20)

MySQL Query

create table oauthtoken(id int(11) not null auto_increment, user_mail varchar(255) not null, client_id varchar(255), refresh_token varchar(255), access_token varchar(255), grant_token varchar(255), expiry_time varchar(20), primary key (id));

alter table oauthtoken auto_increment = 1;

Note

The Database persistence requires the following libraries

Create DBStore object

from zcrmsdk.src.com.zoho.api.authenticator.store import DBStore
"""
DBStore takes the following parameters
1 -> DataBase host name. Default value "localhost"
2 -> DataBase name. Default value "zohooauth"
3 -> DataBase user name. Default value "root"
4 -> DataBase password. Default value ""
5 -> DataBase port number. Default value "3306"
"""
store = DBStore()

store = DBStore(host='host_name', database_name='database_name', user_name='user_name', password='password', port_number='port_number')

File Persistence

In case of File Persistence, the user can persist tokens in the local drive, by providing the absolute file path to the FileStore object.

  • The File contains

    • user_mail

    • client_id

    • refresh_token

    • access_token

    • grant_token

    • expiry_time

Create FileStore object

from zcrmsdk.src.com.zoho.api.authenticator.store import FileStore
"""
FileStore takes the following parameter
1 -> Absolute file path of the file to persist tokens
"""
store = FileStore(file_path='/Users/username/Documents/python_sdk_token.txt')

Custom Persistence

To use Custom Persistence, the user must implement the Abstract Base Class TokenStore and override the methods.

from zcrmsdk.src.com.zoho.api.authenticator.store import TokenStore


class CustomStore(TokenStore):

    def __init__(self):
        pass

Configuration

Before you get started with creating your Python application, you need to register your client and authenticate the app with Zoho.

  • Create an instance of Logger Class to log exception and API information.

Class Hierarchy

Responses and Exceptions

All SDK methods return an instance of the APIResponse class.

After a successful API request, the get_object() method returns an instance of the ResponseWrapper (for GET) or the ActionWrapper (for POST, PUT, DELETE)

Whenever the API returns an error response, the get_object() returns an instance of APIException class.

ResponseWrapper (for GET requests) and ActionWrapper (for POST, PUT, DELETE requests) are the expected objects for Zoho CRM APIs’ responses

However, some specific operations have different expected objects, such as the following:

  • Operations involving records in Tags

    • RecordActionWrapper
  • Getting Record Count for a specific Tag operation

    • CountWrapper
  • Operations involving BaseCurrency

    • BaseCurrencyActionWrapper
  • Lead convert operation

    • ConvertActionWrapper
  • Retrieving Deleted records operation

    • DeletedRecordsWrapper
  • Record image download operation

    • FileBodyWrapper
  • MassUpdate record operations

    • MassUpdateActionWrapper
    • MassUpdateResponseWrapper

GET Requests

  • The get_object() returns an instance of one of the following classes, based on the return type.

    • For application/json responses

      • ResponseWrapper
      • CountWrapper
      • DeletedRecordsWrapper
      • MassUpdateResponseWrapper
      • APIException
    • For file download responses

      • FileBodyWrapper
      • APIException

POST, PUT, DELETE Requests

  • The getObject() returns an instance of one of the following classes

    • ActionWrapper
    • RecordActionWrapper
    • BaseCurrencyActionWrapper
    • MassUpdateActionWrapper
    • ConvertActionWrapper
    • APIException
  • These wrapper classes may contain one or a list of instances of the following classes, depending on the response.

    • SuccessResponse Class, if the request was successful.
    • APIException Class, if the request was erroneous.

For example, when you insert two records, and one of them was inserted successfully while the other one failed, the ActionWrapper will contain one instance each of the SuccessResponse and APIException classes.

All other exceptions such as SDK anomalies and other unexpected behaviours are thrown under the SDKException class.

Threading in the Python SDK

Threads in a Python program help you achieve parallelism. By using multiple threads, you can make a Python program run faster and do multiple things simultaneously.

The Python SDK (from version 1.x.x) supports both single-user and multi-user app.

Multithreading in a Multi-user App

Multi-threading for multi-users is achieved using Initializer's static switch_user() method.

# without proxy
Initializer.switch_user(user=user, environment=environment, token=token, sdk_config=sdk_config_instance)

# with proxy
Initializer.switch_user(user=user, environment=environment, token=token, sdk_config=sdk_config_instance, proxy=request_proxy)

Here is a sample code to depict multi-threading for a multi-user app.

MultiThread.call()
  • The program execution starts from call().

  • The details of user1 are given in the variables user1, token1, environment1.

  • Similarly, the details of another user user2 are given in the variables user2, token2, environment2.

  • For each user, an instance of MultiThread class is created.

  • When the start() is called which in-turn invokes the run(), the details of user1 are passed to the switch_user method through the MultiThread object. Therefore, this creates a thread for user1.

  • Similarly, When the start() is invoked again, the details of user2 are passed to the switch_user function through the MultiThread object. Therefore, this creates a thread for user2.

Multi-threading in a Single User App

Here is a sample code to depict multi-threading for a single-user app.

        t1.start()
        t2.start()

        t1.join()
        t2.join()


MultiThread.call()
  • The program execution starts from call() where the SDK is initialized with the details of the user.

  • When the start() is called which in-turn invokes the run(), the module_api_name is switched through the MultiThread object. Therefore, this creates a thread for the particular MultiThread instance.
