Implementation of the Week
- Zoho Recruit + WordPress Integration for custom Jobs Pages
- This implementation serves to automatically create custom WordPress pages upon creation of a Job Opening in Zoho Recruit
- It requires two WP plugins: Advanced Custom Fields, and WordPress REST API Authentication
- Using these plug-ins, we can define “Custom Fields” that can be used to fill in field-data into templated WordPress pages
- Once those were installed, we created a Deluge function within Recruit (triggered on button press) to post data specific to the chosen Job Opening to the Custom Field plug-in, which generates the page
Code Share of the Week
- Get Email Content from a Desk Ticket
- In Zoho Desk, there are Tickets and Threads. A Thread represents an individual communication such as an email, SMS, tweet, or post. A Ticket is the collection of all the Threads (communications) pertaining to a particular Contact and Subject.
- You may want to create a function that checks a new Ticket’s content for certain keywords or tags to assign it to the best agent or department for the job. While you can get things like the Contact or Subject from the Ticket using the zoho.desk.getRecords deluge task, if you want to get the full email content, you’ll need to get the Latest Thread. You will need the Ticket ID, and a Zoho OAuth connection with the Desk.tickets.READ scope.
