FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI edit an existing campaign?

    No. This connector only uses the zoho_create_campaign tool to make new records.

  • 02

    Does the AI create the actual marketing content?

    No. The AI only creates the campaign record in Zoho CRM. You still need to handle the creative work.

  • 03

    Can the AI delete campaigns I've already made?

    No. The tool is limited to creating new campaigns and cannot delete or modify existing ones.

  • 04

    Do I need to be logged into Zoho CRM while I chat?

  • 05
