Perplexity

Manage the full sales lifecycle.

To build out a new client record, start with `zoho_create_lead`. You can input their email, company name, and even the source (Advertisement or Referral). This logs them into your pipeline for follow-up. When that lead is ready to become an account, you use `zoho_search_accounts` first. This ensures you have the correct company ID before calling `zoho_create_contact`, keeping your code clean and accurate.

Map out complex deal flows.

Building a new opportunity requires more than just a name. Use `zoho_create_deal` to set the stage, amount, and closing date for the deal. Remember, you need to link it back to an existing account via `Account_Name`. If your script needs to verify if a specific deal already exists or what its progress is, just fire up `zoho_search_deals`. It spits out the stage, amount, and linked account for immediate use.

Automate context logging.

Writing code that needs to reference past conversations? Use `zoho_create_note` to log activity. You just need a parent ID and module type (like 'Contacts'). This makes your data history actionable. Furthermore, if you want to write a function that summarizes recent CRM activity, use `zoho_list_records`. It gives you a list of recently modified records from almost every Zoho module.
