The CRM Zen Show Episode 293 – My, How The Zoho Tables Have Turned

Zoho News

Implementation of the Week

  • Referral Code + QR Code Automation via Zoho CRM
    • In this implementation, our goal was to automatically create unique referral codes for new customers, along with a QR code image that will direct prospects to the website attributed to this referrer
    • First, we set up a function that will generate the referral code based on an algorithm using the customer’s name. This referral code is then checked for uniqueness before the function confirms it
    • Then, we use a RapidAPI service to request the generation of the QR code for the specific referral URL with this code
    • This QR code is stored in an image field on the record, and is also uploaded to Workdrive to create an easily downloadable link for printing

Code Share of the Week

  • Random String Generator
    • Here is a deluge function to generate a random string, such as a password or encryption key, programmatically. This snippet allows you to set the password length. You can also add or remove options from the “specials” array to customize the special characters that could be used. 
    • One thing to note is that this snippet does not guarantee that there will be a certain number of special characters or letters or numbers. You could enhance this script yourself by adding regex matches() checks to test if your generated string matches your requirements.
