API gotchas

  • Zoho uses datacenter-specific URLs for authentication. Make sure to use the correct datacenter domain extension (com, eu, in, com.cn, com.au) based on where your user’s account is registered.

  • Zoho has rate limits that vary by service. Check the specific service documentation for details.

  • If your application needs to access multiple Zoho services, you need to request scopes for each service during the authorization process.

  • For production applications, consider implementing multi-datacenter support to handle users from different regions.

​
Bigin-specific gotchas

  • You can make your OAuth app cross-data-centers with these instructions. This means that a single OAuth app will be able to query the Zoho API for Zoho accounts from the US, EU, etc.
  • Bigin API has a rate limit of 10,000 API requests per day per organization.
