# Send Zoho Bigin to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

## Documentation

### Zoho Bigin

Access the Zoho Bigin API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage contacts, companies, pipelines, and products with full CRUD operations.

### Quick Start

# List contacts
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-bigin/bigin/v2/Contacts?fields=First_Name,Last_Name,Email')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Base URL

https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-bigin/bigin/v2/{endpoint}

The gateway proxies requests to www.zohoapis.com/bigin/v2 and automatically injects your OAuth token.

### Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

### Getting Your API Key

Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
Go to maton.ai/settings
Copy your API key

### Connection Management

Manage your Zoho Bigin OAuth connections at https://ctrl.maton.ai.

### List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=zoho-bigin&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'zoho-bigin'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Get Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Response:

{
  "connection": {
    "connection_id": "21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "zoho-bigin",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Open the returned url in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

### Delete Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Specifying Connection

If you have multiple Zoho Bigin connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-bigin/bigin/v2/Contacts?fields=First_Name,Last_Name,Email')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

### Modules

Zoho Bigin organizes data into modules. Available modules include:

ModuleAPI NameDescriptionContactsContactsIndividual peopleCompaniesAccountsOrganizations/businessesPipelinesPipelinesSales opportunities/dealsProductsProductsItems you sellTasksTasksTo-do items (requires additional OAuth scope)EventsEventsCalendar appointments (requires additional OAuth scope)CallsCallsPhone call logs (requires additional OAuth scope)NotesNotesNotes attached to records (requires additional OAuth scope)

### Pagination

Zoho Bigin uses page-based pagination with page and per_page parameters:

GET /zoho-bigin/bigin/v2/{module_api_name}?fields=First_Name,Last_Name&page=1&per_page=50

Response includes pagination info:

{
  "data": [...],
  "info": {
    "per_page": 50,
    "count": 50,
    "page": 1,
    "more_records": true
  }
}

Continue fetching while more_records is true, incrementing page each time.

### JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-bigin/bigin/v2/Contacts?fields=First_Name,Last_Name,Email',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': \`Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}\`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();

### Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-bigin/bigin/v2/Contacts',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'},
    params={'fields': 'First_Name,Last_Name,Email'}
)
data = response.json()

### Notes

The fields parameter is required for list operations
Module API names are case-sensitive (e.g., Contacts, not contacts)
Companies are accessed via the Accounts module API name
Sales opportunities are accessed via the Pipelines module (not Deals)
Maximum 100 records per create/update request
Maximum 100 records per delete request
Maximum 200 records returned per GET request
Use field API names (not display names) in requests
Some modules (Tasks, Events, Calls, Notes) require additional OAuth scopes. If you receive a scope error, contact Maton support at support@maton.ai with the specific operations/APIs you need and your use-case
IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing
IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq or other commands, environment variables like $MATON_API_KEY may not expand correctly in some shell environments

### Error Handling

StatusMeaning400Missing Zoho Bigin connection, missing required parameter, or invalid request401Invalid or missing Maton API key, or OAuth scope mismatch404Invalid URL pattern or resource not found429Rate limited4xx/5xxPassthrough error from Zoho Bigin API

### Common Error Codes

CodeDescriptionREQUIRED_PARAM_MISSINGRequired parameter (like fields) is missingINVALID_URL_PATTERNInvalid API endpoint pathINVALID_MODULEModule does not exist or is not API-supportedOAUTH_SCOPE_MISMATCHOAuth token lacks required permissions for the endpointNO_PERMISSIONInsufficient privileges for the operationMANDATORY_NOT_FOUNDRequired field is missingINVALID_DATAData type mismatch or format errorDUPLICATE_DATARecord violates unique field constraint

### Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:

echo $MATON_API_KEY

Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

Ensure your URL path starts with zoho-bigin. For example:

Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-bigin/bigin/v2/Contacts
Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/bigin/v2/Contacts
