## Introduction

### How to connect Zoho Campaigns MCP with ChatGPT
[ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/) can take action across your apps and files, stay with a project for hours, and turn a goal into finished materials like sheets, slides, and docs, not just answers.
In this guide, I will explain the easiest and most secure way to connect your Zoho Campaigns account to ChatGPT via Composio Connect, so it can manage mailing lists, update contacts, review campaign reports, manage tags, and create segments through natural language commands without ever putting your account credentials at risk.

## Also integrate Zoho Campaigns with

- [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_campaigns/framework/hermes-agent)
- [Atomic Agent](https://composio.dev/toolkits/zoho_campaigns/framework/atomic-agent)

## TL;DR

### Why use Composio over default connectors?
- Apps with read and write access. Default connectors mostly can read your data. Composio's Zoho Campaigns integration lets ChatGPT take actions like creating drafts, sending updates, labeling records, and more.
- 1,500+ SaaS toolkits out of the box. Composio gives you instant access to a vast catalog of pre-built connectors, from Gmail and Slack to Notion, Linear, and Salesforce.
- One MCP server for every app. Connect any of your applications on demand through a single endpoint, rather than juggling a separate server for each app.
- Smart, context-aware tool loading. Unlike traditional MCP servers that dump every available tool into the LLM context window, Composio searches for and loads only the tools relevant to the task at hand.
- Cross-app automation. Chain actions across multiple apps in a single run - fetch a thread, summarize it in Notion, and post highlights to Slack without leaving the conversation.

## Connect Zoho Campaigns to ChatGPT

### Prerequisites
- A ChatGPT account. We will use the [ChatGPT desktop app](https://openai.com/chatgpt/download/), and the steps are the same on the web.
- Access to the Zoho Campaigns workspace you want to connect.
- [Composio plugin](https://dashboard.composio.dev/login?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_template&utm_campaign=chatgpt&utm_content=composio_connect&next=%2F~%2Forg%2Fconnect%2Fclients%2Fchatgpt).
Note: Composio connects through OAuth. You will be asked to sign in and approve specific permissions. Review the permission screen carefully if you are using a work account.
### Step-by-step: Connect Zoho Campaigns to ChatGPT
### 1. Install the Composio plugin
Click the button. ChatGPT opens the Composio plugin page. Click Install plugin.
[Install in ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/plugins/plugin_asdk_app_6a58503580c08191b78cc5bdaf4eba6e)
You can also find it inside ChatGPT: go to Settings, open Plugins, search the marketplace for Composio, and click Install plugin.
### 2. Authenticate
After you install, ChatGPT asks you to authenticate with Composio. Log in and click Allow access to authorize ChatGPT to use your Composio account.
### 3. Start using Composio
That is it. Composio tools are now available in ChatGPT. Type @Composio followed by your request, for example @Composio find unread Zoho Campaigns messages and summarize them, and it will run the actions you authorize. On first use it asks you to authorize Zoho Campaigns.
### Option 2: Add Composio as an MCP server
If you cannot use the plugin marketplace, add Composio as a custom MCP server instead.
### 1. Open the MCP settings
In ChatGPT, go to Settings and open the Plugins section. Inside the Plugins page, click the MCP tab.
### 2. Add the server
Click Add server. In the Name field enter Composio, for Type select Streamable HTTP, and in the URL field paste the Composio MCP server URL:

## What is the Zoho Campaigns MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Zoho Campaigns 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 Campaigns account. It provides structured and secure access to mailing lists, contacts, email campaigns, reports, topics, tags, custom fields, segments, coupons, and workflows, so your agent can manage subscribers, create and send campaigns, review performance, and organize audience data on your behalf.
- Mailing list and contact management: Have your agent create, rename, and remove mailing lists, add contacts, subscribe or unsubscribe people, count subscribers, and move contacts to the Do-Not-Mail registry.
- Campaign creation and delivery: Let the agent create campaign drafts, clone existing campaigns, schedule reviewed campaigns, or send campaigns immediately to their configured audiences.
- Campaign reporting: Direct your agent to review campaign details, delivery and engagement reports, recent campaigns, and recipient lists filtered by delivery or engagement status.
- Audience organization: Instruct your agent to create and manage tags, associate tags with contacts, list segments and their contacts, and review or update available contact fields.
- Topics, coupons, and workflows: Have your agent manage subscription topics, inspect topic products, review coupon details, mark coupons as used, and add contacts to custom workflows.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_ADD_CONTACTS_TO_MAILING_LIST` | Add Contacts to Mailing List | Add between one and ten email addresses to an existing Zoho Campaigns mailing list in one request. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_ADD_MAILING_LIST_AND_CONTACTS` | Add Mailing List and Contacts | Create a Zoho Campaigns mailing list and optionally add up to ten email addresses in the same call. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_ASSOCIATE_TAG_WITH_CONTACT` | Associate Tag with Contact | Associate an existing Zoho Campaigns contact tag with one contact email address. Zoho performs this state-changing operation through an HTTP GET request, so do not treat it as a safe read. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_CLONE_CAMPAIGN` | Clone Campaign | Clone an existing campaign into a new draft with a new name and subject. This action creates a draft and does not send it. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_COUNT_MAILING_LIST_CONTACTS` | Count Mailing List Contacts | Count contacts in a mailing list for one subscription, bounce, or spam status. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_CREATE_CAMPAIGN` | Create Campaign | Create an email campaign draft for mailing-list or segment recipients. This action creates a draft only and does not send or schedule the campaign. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_CREATE_CONTACT_FIELD` | Create Contact Field | Create a custom contact field in Zoho Campaigns. The documented API does not provide an update or delete operation for custom fields. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_CREATE_TAG` | Create Tag | Create a Zoho Campaigns contact tag with a description and color. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_CREATE_TOPIC` | Create Topic | Create a brand topic or brand-product topic. Zoho Campaigns documents no API endpoint for deleting a topic, so this action may leave durable account state. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_DELETE_CAMPAIGN` | Delete Campaign | Permanently delete one Zoho Campaigns campaign by exact campaign key. This destructive operation cannot be undone. Verify the campaign and obtain explicit confirmation before calling it. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_DELETE_MAILING_LIST` | Delete Mailing List | Permanently delete a mailing list. Contacts remain in the organization by default; setting delete_contacts to true also permanently deletes them and is more destructive, so that mode requires confirm_delete_contacts=true. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_DELETE_TAG` | Delete Tag | Permanently delete one Zoho Campaigns contact tag by exact name. Zoho performs this destructive operation through an HTTP GET request, so do not treat it as a safe read. Verify the tag and obtain explicit confirmation before calling it. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_DISSOCIATE_TAG_FROM_CONTACT` | Dissociate Tag from Contact | Remove an existing Zoho Campaigns contact-tag association without deleting the tag or contact. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_GET_CAMPAIGN_DETAILS` | Get Campaign Details | Get a campaign's status, sender, recipients, reach, and summary report data. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_GET_CAMPAIGN_REPORT` | Get Campaign Report | Get aggregate delivery, open, click, bounce, and reach metrics for one campaign. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_GET_COUPON_DETAILS` | Get Coupon Details | Get a coupon's code, recipient, campaign, sent and expiry dates, and current status. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_GET_LAST_CAMPAIGN_REPORT` | Get Last Campaign Report | Get aggregate delivery, open, click, bounce, and reach metrics for the organization's most recently sent campaign. Fails clearly when the account has no sent campaigns. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_GET_MAILING_LIST_DETAILS` | Get Mailing List Details | Get a mailing list's contact statistics, client and device breakdowns, and optionally filtered campaign details one page at a time. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_GET_SEGMENT_DETAILS` | Get Segment Details | Get the filtering criteria and metadata for a segment in a mailing list. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_CAMPAIGN_RECIPIENTS` | List Campaign Recipients | List recipients in one campaign delivery or engagement state, one page at a time. Pagination is provisional because no sent campaign was available to verify successful page output. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_CONTACT_FIELDS` | List Contact Fields | List standard and custom contact fields available to the connected Campaigns organization. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_MAILING_LIST_CONTACTS` | List Mailing List Contacts | List contacts in a mailing list, optionally filtered by subscription or bounce status, one page at a time. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_MAILING_LISTS` | List Mailing Lists | List mailing lists and their contact, ownership, segment, and status metadata one page at a time. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_OPEN_WORKFLOWS` | List Open Workflows | List open custom workflows one page at a time. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_RECENT_CAMPAIGNS` | List Recent Campaigns | List recent campaigns filtered by lifecycle status, one page at a time. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_RECENTLY_SENT_CAMPAIGNS` | List Recently Sent Campaigns | Return up to a requested number of the most recently sent campaigns; an account with no sent campaigns returns an empty list. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_SEGMENT_CONTACTS` | List Segment Contacts | List contacts belonging to a Zoho Campaigns segment one page at a time. Pagination is provisional because no live segment fixture was available during probing. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_TAGS` | List Tags | List all Zoho Campaigns contact tags and their metadata. Zoho requires contact UPDATE permission even though this action only reads. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_TOPIC_PRODUCTS` | List Topic Products | List products available for brand-product topics one page at a time. Organizations using the brand topic model receive an explicit incompatibility error because that model has no topic products. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_LIST_TOPICS` | List Topics | List subscription topics for the organization one page at a time. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_MARK_COUPON_USED` | Mark Coupon Used | Irreversibly mark a Zoho Campaigns coupon as used. The documented API provides no action to restore the coupon's prior status, so use this only after the user explicitly confirms the state change. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_MOVE_CONTACT_TO_DO_NOT_MAIL` | Move Contact to Do-Not-Mail | Permanently suppress one email address across the connected Zoho Campaigns organization by moving it to the Do-Not-Mail registry. This is broader than unsubscribing from one mailing list, cannot be reversed through the documented API, and was not live-tested because even a test call creates durable suppression. Requires confirm_permanent_suppression=true after the user explicitly confirms this consequence. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_SCHEDULE_CAMPAIGN` | Schedule Campaign | Schedule a reviewed campaign for future delivery. This commits the campaign to sending, and this toolkit has no cancellation action; call only after the user confirms the campaign, date, time, and time zone. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_SEND_CAMPAIGN` | Send Campaign | Immediately and irreversibly send a reviewed Zoho Campaigns campaign to its entire configured audience. This is not a preview, test, draft, or scheduling operation. Delivery cannot be canceled or undone after the call, so use only after the user explicitly confirms the campaign and audience are final. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_SUBSCRIBE_CONTACT` | Subscribe Contact | Add or update one contact in a mailing list. Depending on the mailing-list settings, Zoho Campaigns may send the contact a confirmation email. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_TRIGGER_WORKFLOW_CONTACTS` | Trigger Workflow Contacts | Add between one and 200 contacts to a Zoho Campaigns custom workflow. Triggering contacts can run the workflow's downstream automations, so this action requires confirm_trigger=true after the user confirms that effect. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_UNSUBSCRIBE_CONTACT` | Unsubscribe Contact | Unsubscribe one contact from a mailing list or topic. This is a reversible, list-level opt-out and does not add the address to the organization-wide Do-Not-Mail registry. |
| `ZOHO_CAMPAIGNS_UPDATE_MAILING_LIST` | Update Mailing List | Rename a mailing list and set its signup form visibility. |

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Zoho Campaigns MCP?

With a standalone Zoho Campaigns MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Zoho Campaigns tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Zoho Campaigns and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with ChatGPT?

Yes, you can. ChatGPT 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 Campaigns tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Zoho Campaigns while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Zoho Campaigns 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 Campaigns data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
