This guide explains the easiest and most robust way to connect your Zoho bigin account to Hermes. You can do this through either Composio Connect CLI or Composio Connect MCP. For personal use we recommend the CLI, but you won't go wrong with MCP either. ## Also integrate Zoho bigin with - [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/chatgpt) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/openclaw) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_bigin/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### What is Composio Connect?

The Zoho bigin MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Zoho bigin account. It provides structured and secure access to your CRM pipeline data, so your agent can manage contacts, track deals, organize records, handle attachments, and streamline your small business workflows—all on your behalf. - Automated record management: Add, update, or delete records in any Zoho bigin module to keep your CRM data accurate and up to date. - Tagging and categorization: Create new tags or apply them to records, making it easy to segment contacts, deals, or companies for better organization. - Attachment handling: Retrieve, download, or delete attachments associated with your records, letting your agent manage files and documents with ease. - Module and data discovery: List available modules and fetch records with sorting, filtering, and pagination—perfect for quickly surfacing the data you need. - Deleted records auditing: Access and review recently deleted records for auditing or restoration, helping you maintain data integrity and recover lost information. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `ZOHO_BIGIN_ADD_RECORDS` | Add Records | Tool to add new records to a module. use when you need to programmatically insert one or more records into bigin after confirming module name and field api names. provide required fields per module (e.g., contacts requires last name). | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_ADD_TAGS_TO_RECORDS` | Add Tags to Records | Tool to add tags to a specific record in a module. use when you need to categorize or label a record after creation or update. | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_CREATE_TAGS` | Create Tags | Tool to create tags for a module. use when you need to add new tags to a specific module in zoho bigin. | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_DELETE_ATTACHMENT` | Delete Attachment | Tool to delete an attachment from a record. use when you need to remove a file after confirming its record id and attachment id. | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_DELETE_RECORDS` | Delete Records | Tool to delete records from a module. use when removing one or multiple records after confirming their ids. | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_DOWNLOAD_ATTACHMENT` | Download Attachment | Tool to download an attachment from a record. use when you need the binary content of a specific attachment after confirming the record and attachment ids. | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_GET_ATTACHMENTS` | Get Attachments | Tool to retrieve attachments for a record. use when you need a paginated list of attachments for a given module record. | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_GET_DELETED_RECORDS` | Get Deleted Records | Tool to get a list of deleted records in a module. use when auditing or restoring recently deleted data (recycle within 60 days, permanent within 120 days). | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_GET_MODULES` | Get Modules | Tool to retrieve a list of all modules. use when you need to discover which modules are available in bigin. | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_GET_RECORDS` | Get Records | Tool to retrieve records from a bigin module. use when listing or querying module data with specific fields, sorting, filtering, and pagination. | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_UPDATE_RECORDS` | Update Records | Tool to update existing records in a module. use when you need to modify one or multiple records after confirming their ids and field api names. supports up to 100 records per call; specify an optional trigger to control workflow execution. | | `ZOHO_BIGIN_UPLOAD_ATTACHMENT` | Upload Attachment | Tool to upload an attachment to a record. use when you need to attach a file or specify a public url for upload to a bigin record. ensure module api name and record id are correct before calling. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Zoho bigin MCP server provides comprehensive access to Zoho bigin operations through Composio. Once connected, Hermes can perform all major Zoho bigin actions on your behalf using natural language commands. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Way Forward With Zoho bigin connected, Hermes can now act on your behalf whenever it detects a relevant task or you ask it to. From here, you can extend Hermes further: - Connect more apps: Calendar, Slack, Notion, Linear, and hundreds of others are available through the same Composio Connect setup. Each new integration compounds what Hermes can do for you. - Build workflows across tools: Once multiple apps are connected, Hermes can chain actions together — turn an email into a calendar invite, a Slack message into a Linear ticket, or a meeting note into a follow-up draft. - Let it learn your patterns: The more you use Hermes, the better it gets at anticipating how you'd handle recurring tasks. Give it feedback on drafts and decisions, and it will adapt.

With a standalone Zoho bigin MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Zoho bigin tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Zoho bigin and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Hermes? Yes, you can. Hermes fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Zoho bigin tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Zoho bigin while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Zoho bigin scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do. ### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router? All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Zoho bigin data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
