The CRM Zen Show Episode 263 – I Just Don’t Know What ToDo With Myself

Zoho News

Implementation of the Week

  • Automated QR Code Generation for Trade Show Specific Lead Source Forms
    • In this implementation, our goal was to create an easy way for our client to generate 
    • To accomplish this, we first created the Lead Capture form in Creator, so that we could have a great amount of control over the flow of the form
    • Then, we set up a module for our client to load in relevant Trade Shows where they’d want a unique form. This module has a field where the user can define what Lead Source should be used for that version of the form
    • Lastly, we created a custom button in the Trade Shows module that triggers a function to create a unique QR code for that Trade Show, that will direct the user to a unique version of that Creator page for the specific Trade Show. It saves the QR code as the Record Image for easy access
    • When the user submits this form, they are created as a Lead with the appropriate Lead Source within the CRM

Code Share of the Week

  • COQL in Zoho Flow
    • We’ll never stop raving about the beauty of COQL queries. They make searching CRM records via API much easier and more customizable. 
    • Unfortunately, Zoho Flow does not have a trigger for running a COQL query. Even worse, the CRM connection you can create in Flow doesn’t have the ZohoCRM.coql.READ scope necessary to make the call via deluge invokeurl. 
    • But not to worry! There is a solution: we’re going to hard code a connection in Flow to let us make COQL queries, trigger standalone functions, whatever we want!
