Zoho Projects Skill

Use the Zoho Projects V3 REST API (base: https://projectsapi.zoho.com/api/v3) to manage projects, tasks, milestones, and time logs.

Authentication

Every request must include:

Authorization: Zoho-oauthtoken $ZOHO_ACCESS_TOKEN

Access tokens expire hourly. If you get a 401, tell the user their token has expired and they need to refresh it using their refresh token (see Setup below). Store the refreshed token with:

openclaw config set skills.entries.zoho-projects.apiKey NEW_TOKEN

Environment Variables

Setup (First Time)

1. Go to https://api-console.zoho.com/ → Create a Self Client application
2. Grant scopes: ZohoProjects.portals.READ,ZohoProjects.projects.ALL,ZohoProjects.tasks.ALL,ZohoProjects.milestones.ALL,ZohoProjects.timesheets.ALL,ZohoProjects.bugs.ALL
3. Generate a grant token (duration: 10 minutes is fine for initial setup)
4. Exchange it for access + refresh tokens:

curl -X POST "https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/token" \
  -d "grant_type=authorization_code" \
  -d "client_id=$ZOHO_CLIENT_ID" \
  -d "client_secret=$ZOHO_CLIENT_SECRET" \
  -d "redirect_uri=https://localhost" \
  -d "code=YOUR_GRANT_TOKEN"

1. Save the access_token as ZOHO_ACCESS_TOKEN and refresh_token as ZOHO_REFRESH_TOKEN
2. Get your portal ID by calling List Portals below, then set ZOHO_PORTAL_ID

Refreshing an Expired Token

If you get a 401 Unauthorized error, refresh the token:

curl -X POST "https://accounts.${ZOHO_DC:-zoho.com}/oauth/v2/token" \
  -d "grant_type=refresh_token" \
  -d "client_id=$ZOHO_CLIENT_ID" \
  -d "client_secret=$ZOHO_CLIENT_SECRET" \
  -d "refresh_token=$ZOHO_REFRESH_TOKEN"

Parse the access_token from the JSON response and update ZOHO_ACCESS_TOKEN.

Tips

• All dates must be ISO 8601 format: 2026-03-24T00:00:00Z
• Rate limit: 100 requests per 2 minutes. If you hit 429, wait 30 seconds before retrying.
• Use | python3 -m json.tool after curl commands to pretty-print JSON responses.
• For EU/AU/IN/JP Zoho accounts, set ZOHO_DC to the correct domain (e.g., zoho.eu) and use projectsapi.zoho.eu as the API base URL instead.
• When listing projects or tasks, extract the id or id_string field to use in subsequent calls.
• If the user asks to "show all open tasks", call the mytasks endpoint with ?status=open and format the results as a readable list.
• When creating tasks for sarvahealth.ai or Katprotech work, apply appropriate project IDs stored in memory.
