Zoho SalesIQ Connector for Azure Data Factory (Pipeline)Zoho SalesIQ Connector can be used to integrate Zoho SalesIQ API in your App / BI Tools. You can exchange data on Chats, Visits and more. In this article you will learn how to quickly and efficiently integrate Zoho SalesIQ data in Azure Data Factory (Pipeline) without coding. We will use high-performance Zoho SalesIQ Connector to easily connect to Zoho SalesIQ and then access the data inside Azure Data Factory (Pipeline). Let's follow the steps below to see how we can accomplish that! Zoho SalesIQ Connector for Azure Data Factory (Pipeline) is based on ZappySys API Driver which is part of ODBC PowerPack. It is a collection of high-performance ODBC drivers that enable you to integrate data in SQL Server, SSIS, a programming language, or any other ODBC-compatible application. ODBC PowerPack supports various file formats, sources and destinations, including REST/SOAP API, SFTP/FTP, storage services, and plain files, to mention a few. |

Create ODBC Data Source (DSN) based on ZappySys API Driver
Step-by-step instructions
To get data from Zoho SalesIQ using Azure Data Factory (Pipeline) we first need to create a DSN (Data Source) which will access data from Zoho SalesIQ. We will later be able to read data using Azure Data Factory (Pipeline). Perform these steps:
-
Download and install ODBC PowerPack.
-
Open ODBC Data Sources (x64):
-
Create a User data source (User DSN) based on ZappySys API Driver
ZappySys API Driver-
Create and use User DSN
if the client application is run under a User Account.
This is an ideal option
in design-time , when developing a solution, e.g. in Visual Studio 2019. Use it for both type of applications - 64-bit and 32-bit. -
Create and use System DSN
if the client application is launched under a System Account, e.g. as a Windows Service.
Usually, this is an ideal option to use
in a production environment . Use ODBC Data Source Administrator (32-bit), instead of 64-bit version, if Windows Service is a 32-bit application.
Azure Data Factory (Pipeline) uses a Service Account, when a solution is deployed to production environment, therefore for production environment you have to create and use a System DSN. -
Create and use User DSN
if the client application is run under a User Account.
This is an ideal option

When the Configuration window appears give your data source a name if you haven't done that already, then select "Zoho SalesIQ" from the list of Popular Connectors. If "Zoho SalesIQ" is not present in the list, then click "Search Online" and download it. Then set the path to the location where you downloaded it. Finally, click Continue >> to proceed with configuring the DSN:

Now it's time to configure the Connection Manager. Select Authentication Type, e.g. Token Authentication. Then select API Base URL (in most cases, the default one is the right one). More info is available in the Authentication section.
OAuth Connection for Zoho CRM API [API reference]
Steps how to get and use Zoho SalesIQ credentials : OAuth [OAuth]
To register custom App, perform the following steps (Detailed steps found in the help link at the end)- Go to Zoho API Console
- Click Add Client link
- Select Server-based Applications option
- Enter desired client name (Display purpose only)
- Enter some URL for Company homepage
- For Authorized Redirect URI enter https://zappysys.com/oauth (Or enter your own but we recommend using ZappySys one if possible). This URL must match on Zoho Connector UI.
- Click CREATE.
- Copy Client ID and Secret and paste on Zoho Connector UI.
Fill in all required parameters and set optional parameters if needed:
ZohoSalesiqDSNZoho SalesIQOAuth [OAuth]https://salesiq.zoho.com/api/v2/[$Compnay$]Optional Parameters Company Screen Name for URL (e.g. mycompany) ClientId ClientSecret Permissions SalesIQ.operators.READ SalesIQ.conversations.READ SalesIQ.feedbacks.READ SalesIQ.departments.READ AccountUrl https://accounts.zoho.com RedirectUrl https://zappysys.com/oauth RetryMode RetryWhenStatusCodeMatch RetryStatusCodeList 429 RetryCountMax 5 RetryMultiplyWaitTime True -
Once the data source connection has been configured, it's time to configure the SQL query. Select the Preview tab and then click Query Builder button to configure the SQL query:
ZappySys API Driver - Zoho SalesIQZoho SalesIQ Connector can be used to integrate Zoho SalesIQ API in your App / BI Tools. You can exchange data on Chats, Visits and more.ZohoSalesiqDSN -
Start by selecting the Table or Endpoint you are interested in and then configure the parameters. This will generate a query that we will use in Azure Data Factory (Pipeline) to retrieve data from Zoho SalesIQ. Hit OK button to use this query in the next step.
SELECT * FROM Departments
Some parameters configured in this window will be passed to the Zoho SalesIQ API, e.g. filtering parameters. It means that filtering will be done on the server side (instead of the client side), enabling you to get only the meaningful datamuch faster . -
Now hit Preview Data button to preview the data using the generated SQL query. If you are satisfied with the result, use this query in Azure Data Factory (Pipeline):

You can also access data quickly from the tables dropdown by selecting <Select table>.AWHERE
clause,LIMIT
keyword will be performed on the client side, meaning that thewhole result set will be retrieved from the Zoho SalesIQ API first, and only then the filtering will be applied to the data. If possible, it is recommended to use parameters in Query Builder to filter the data on the server side (in Zoho SalesIQ servers). -
Click OK to finish creating the data source.

To start press New button:
-
Select "Azure, Self-Hosted" option:
-
Select "Self-Hosted" option:
-
Set a name, we will use "OnPremisesRuntime":
-
Download and install Microsoft Integration Runtime.
-
Launch Integration Runtime and copy/paste Authentication Key from Integration Runtime configuration in Azure Portal:
-
After finishing registering the Integration Runtime node, you should see a similar view:
-
Go back to Azure Portal and finish adding new Integration Runtime. You should see it was successfully added:
-
Go to Linked services section and create a new Linked service based on ODBC:
-
Select "ODBC" service:
-
Configure new ODBC service. Use the same DSN name we used in the previous step and copy it to Connection string box:
ZohoSalesiqDSNDSN=ZohoSalesiqDSN -
For created ODBC service create ODBC-based dataset:
-
Go to your pipeline and add Copy data connector into the flow. In Source section use OdbcDataset we created as a source dataset:
-
Then go to Sink section and select a destination/sink dataset. In this example we use precreated AzureBlobStorageDataset which saves data into an Azure Blob:
-
Finally, run the pipeline and see data being transferred from OdbcDataset to your destination dataset:
