Zoho Projects MCP. Control tasks, milestones, and teams via natural language.

You're done clicking through dashboards. This MCP server hooks your AI client right into Zoho Projects V3, letting you manage entire project lifecycles just by talking to your agent. You tell it what needs doing; it handles the API calls. It lets you list, create, and update everything—tasks, projects, milestones, user assignments.

Here’s what your agent can do with this setup.

Mapping Out Your Workspace:
Your agent starts by finding where all the action is happening. You'll use list_portals to see every portal available in your account and find the necessary ID for any other calls. Once you have that, you can call list_projects to pull an inventory of every project sitting inside a specific portal ID.

If you need a new spot on the board, it'll use create_project, letting you spin up a brand-new project using just the portal and project name IDs.

Digging Into Project Details:
Once you're in a project, your agent can give you the full picture. It uses list_task_lists to show every task list that exists within that specific project. You can then get an audit of all the actual tasks by running list_tasks, which retrieves every single task belonging to that project ID.

Need to know who's on it? Your agent runs list_project_users and shows you every user and participant linked to that project ID, giving instant team visibility.

Controlling Task Flow:
It’s not enough just to see the tasks; you gotta manage 'em. You can add a brand-new task using create_task, which needs the portal ID, project ID, and the task name to make it stick. When things change—a status update or ownership handover—you don't touch the web interface.

Your agent uses update_task to change the status or details of any existing task in your projects.

Tracking Progress and People:
Your agent keeps an eye on deadlines by running list_milestones, which pulls all current milestones associated with a specific project, letting you check their target dates. It also helps keep track of the overall structure using the general directory capabilities that allow you to list tasks lists or view the main project inventory across your whole organization.

It handles it all: finding the right portal, building out new projects, listing every task and sub-list within them, updating statuses on the fly, knowing who's assigned, and tracking those critical milestones. You just talk to your agent; it executes the API commands.
