Schedule and Log Meetings via MCP Server

The `zoho_create_event` tool lets your agent schedule meetings or demos directly into Zoho CRM. You only supply the title, start time, and end time (all in ISO format); it handles linking that event to contacts, leads, or deals. Need to log a quick call? Use `zoho_create_call`. Just give it a subject, whether it was Inbound or Outbound, and what the purpose was. It's fast activity tracking for your agent.

Reviewing Zoho CRM Activities with OpenAI Agents SDK

You need to audit call volume? The `zoho_list_calls` tool pulls back call subjects, type, duration, and disposition. It's perfect for reviewing call history or tracking sales activity. Want a full calendar view instead? Run `zoho_list_events`. This gives you titles, start/end dates, location, and all the linked records so your agent knows exactly what's coming up.

Maintain Context with Notes and Tasks

`zoho_list_notes` lets your agent check the full history on any record—be it a Contact, Deal, or Account. You specify the module and `recordId`, and it returns the note title, content, and creation date. For follow-up work, use `zoho_create_task`. Your agent can set the subject, priority, due date (YYYY-MM-DD), and even track the status so nothing falls through the cracks.

Setup guide

Set up Zoho CRM Activities MCP in OpenAI Agents SDK

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
openai-agents package (pip install openai-agents)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install the SDK

Run pip install openai-agents to install the OpenAI Agents SDK. The MCP integration is built-in — no extra dependencies needed.
2

Connect via SSE transport

Use MCPServerSse with your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. The SDK auto-discovers all Zoho CRM Activities tools at runtime.
3

Create your Agent

Pass the MCP to Agent(mcp_servers=[server]). The agent receives Zoho CRM Activities tools as native definitions — JSON schemas resolve automatically.
4

Run the agent

Call Runner.run(agent, prompt) to execute. The agent invokes the appropriate Zoho CRM Activities tools and returns structured results. Copy the full example on the right to get started.

agent.py

import asyncio
from agents import Agent, Runner
from agents.mcp import MCPServerSse

async def main():
    async with MCPServerSse(
        url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ) as server:
        agent = Agent(
            name="Zoho CRM Activities Agent",
            instructions="You have access to Zoho CRM Activities tools.",
            mcp_servers=[server],
        )
        result = await Runner.run(agent, "List recent transactions")
