Implementation of the Week

  • PowerBI Integration for Scheduled Delivery of Zoho Surveys
    • In this implementation, our goal was to automate a process for sending Zoho Surveys to our client’s customers, based on data appearing within PowerBI
    • This client provides transportation services via a reservation system, and all of the reservation data pipes through PowerBI
    • Our first step was to set up a Databridge to pull the Client data from PowerBI into Zoho Analytics
    • Then, we set up a custom filtered data table showing completed Reservations from the last 30 minutes
    • Lastly, we set up a scheduled function triggering every 30 minutes (with a slight time offset from the DB sync), to pull this list of recently completed Reservations, and send them a pre-filled Zoho Survey via a 3rd party SMS platform

Code Share of the Week

  • Search for or Create Books Customer
    • This functionality is set up to help Developers search for books customers based on the company name and the full name of the contact.
      • For this functionality to run you will need to setup a connection to Zoho Books called “books” with the scopes of ‘ZohoBooks.contacts.READ’ and ‘ZohoBooks.contacts.CREATE’
      • When this function runs it should return the Books Customer Id of either the record created or the record found.
  • HTML Snippet for an NPS Gauge
    • This snippet can be used to display an NPS Gauge using HTML. It uses no Javascript, so it can be included in an email. 
    • To adjust the needle’s position, simply edit the “left” attribute inside the “.gauge .indicator” and “.gauge .indicator-label” style rulesets. The formula for the indicator is “left = (90 + NPS)px” and for the indicator label is “left = (100 + NPS)px”
