Vendors
Import the ZohoCRMVendor
module
from zohocrm import ZohoCRMVendor
Zoho converts the module's field such that: * Spaces are replaced with underscores and * The capitalization of each word is preserved
For example, the field "First Name" becomes .Name
For this reason, you can get and set the fields of a ZohoCRMVendor
like this:
vendor = ZohoCRMVendor(zoho_client)
vendor.Name = "ACME Inc."
vendor.Email = "email@example.com"
Retrieve a vendor
vendor_id = 1234023423424
vendor = ZohoCRMVendor.fetch(
zoho_client,
vendor_id
)
print(vendor.Name)
Insert or Update a Vendor
If the vendor.id
is set and is not None
, the module will attempt to update the Vendor with that ID. Otherwise it will attempt to insert a new Vendor.
owner = {
'id': 1234234234,
'name': "<Your user's name>",
'email': "<Your user's email>"
}
vendor = ZohoCRMVendor(zoho_client)
vendor.Name = 'ACME Inc.'
vendor.State = 'CA'
vendor.Country = 'United States'
vendor.ZIP_Code = '94110'
vendor.Website = 'http://example.com'
vendor.Owner = owner
# if vendor.id is set, .save() will update
# if vendor.id is not set, .save() will insert
vendor.save()
print(vendor.id)
Alternately, you can use the .insert()
or .update()
methods.
Delete a Vendor
You can delete a vendor with or without retrieving it first.
Deleting a retrieved Vendor
If the vendor has already been retrieved, the .delete()
method will delete the record with the matching .id
:
vendor_id = 1234023423424
vendor = ZohoCRMVendor.fetch(
zoho_client,
vendor_id
)
# Delete
vendor.delete()
Deleting a Vendor by ID
If the vendor has not yet been retrieved, the .delete_id()
requires the id
of the record and can be called from the static class:
vendor_id = 1234023423424
vendor = ZohoCRMVendor.delete_id(
zoho_client,
vendor_id
)
