Build lead attribution reports using the MCP Server

The `zoho_campaign_leads` tool gets every lead tied to a campaign, giving you name, email, company, and source. You can pipe this data directly into code to measure exactly how many leads an initiative generated. Cline makes it easy to take that raw output—like determining which webinar drove the most sign-ups—and build a dashboard component right in your repository.

Programmatically check marketing campaign status

`zoho_get_campaign` retrieves complete details for any Zoho CRM Marketing campaign ID. You get budget, ROI metrics, and all custom fields, which you can then use in a script to validate against your internal records. If your build process needs to verify if a campaign is 'Active' before deploying code, this function gives you the reliable data point.

Search Zoho CRM Marketing campaigns for specific types

`zoho_search_campaigns` lets you find matching campaigns by name or keyword. It returns type, status, budget, and dates, which is perfect for scripts that need to validate a list of currently running promotions. This function allows your automated build process to quickly verify if the marketing team has updated the correct campaign ID before release.
