How to Use the Zoho CRM Marketing MCP in AutoGen

Q: Can AutoGen help me track contacts across different campaigns? How does Zoho CRM Marketing support this?

Yes. You can pass the output of zohocampaigncontacts into a discussion where agents compare contact status against lead data (zohocampaignleads). This helps pinpoint exactly which segment needs re-targeting efforts.

Collaborative Campaign Planning with AutoGen

Set up a group of agents: one 'Marketing' agent, one 'Finance' agent, and one 'Risk' agent. The Marketing agent calls `zoho_search_campaigns` to find potential initiatives. The Finance agent then challenges that plan by calling `zoho_get_campaign` multiple times to verify budget limits. This debate process forces the system to converge on a decision—for example, agreeing on a campaign type and dates that fit both revenue goals and actual spend.

Automated Lead Qualification with AutoGen MCP Server

A multi-agent system can be set up where one agent gathers initial data using `zoho_campaign_leads`. A second 'Qualification' agent then analyzes this list and decides if the leads meet conversion criteria. Finally, a third agent uses that filtered list to call `zoho_create_campaign` for follow-up efforts. The consensus mechanism ensures that the new campaign isn't started until all necessary data checks are performed.

Comprehensive Campaign Status Review with AutoGen

When a user asks about 'all current marketing initiatives,' three agents can be tasked: one uses `zoho_list_campaigns` for the overview. Another calls `zoho_search_campaigns` to check specific keywords. The final agent synthesizes these findings, flagging discrepancies between stated budgets and actual costs. This negotiation over data points provides a much richer, cross-validated report than any single tool call could manage.

Setup guide

Set up Zoho CRM Marketing MCP in AutoGen

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
autogen-ext[mcp] package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install AutoGen with MCP
Run pip install "autogen-ext[mcp]" autogen-agentchat. The MCP extension includes mcp_server_tools for stateless tool access.
2

Fetch tools from the MCP
Call mcp_server_tools(SseServerParams(url=...)) with your Vinkius endpoint. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Run your agent
Pass the tools to AssistantAgent and call agent.run(). The agent invokes Zoho CRM Marketing tools and returns structured results.

agent.py

from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import SseServerParams, mcp_server_tools
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient

server_params = SseServerParams(
    url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)

tools = await mcp_server_tools(server_params)

agent = AssistantAgent(
    name="Zoho CRM Marketing_assistant",
    model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
    tools=tools,
)

result = await agent.run("List recent Zoho CRM Marketing data")
print(result.messages[-1].content)

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
autogen-ext[mcp] + autogen-agentchat
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Same packages as above. McpWorkbench is ideal when your agent needs stateful sessions across multiple tool calls.
2

Use McpWorkbench as context manager
Wrap your agent in async with McpWorkbench(...) to maintain shared state and resources. The workbench manages the full MCP session lifecycle.
3

Run with workbench
Pass workbench=workbench to your agent. State is preserved across multiple tool calls within the same session.

agent.py

from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import McpWorkbench, SseServerParams
from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient

server_params = SseServerParams(
    url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)

async with McpWorkbench(server_params) as workbench:
    agent = AssistantAgent(
        name="Zoho CRM Marketing_assistant",
        model_client=OpenAIChatCompletionClient(model="gpt-4o"),
        workbench=workbench,
    )

    result = await agent.run("List recent Zoho CRM Marketing data")
    print(result.messages[-1].content)
