## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ZOHO_MAIL_ACCOUNTS_LIST_ACCOUNTS` | List Zoho Mail Accounts | Retrieves all Zoho Mail accounts associated with the authenticated user. Returns account details including accountId (required for other mail operations), email addresses, storage information, account status, user preferences, and security settings. Use this action first to get the accountId needed for subsequent mailbox, message, folder, and email operations. The accountId is a unique identifier for each mail account. Typical workflow: List accounts → Get accountId → Use accountId in other mail operations. |
| `ZOHO_MAIL_DOMAIN_OPERATIONS` | Domain Operations | Tool to perform domain operations like verify, set primary domain, hosting, aliases, MX/SPF checks, DKIM management, and notifications. Use after creating or retrieving a domain. |
| `ZOHO_MAIL_GET_ALL_BOOKMARKS` | Get All Bookmarks | Tool to retrieve all personal bookmarks from a Zoho Mail account. Use when you need to fetch saved bookmarks/links with support for pagination and field filtering. |
| `ZOHO_MAIL_GROUPS_DELETE_GROUP_BULK` | Delete Groups in Bulk | Delete multiple groups in a single API call. This action permanently removes the specified groups from your Zoho Mail organization. Use this when you need to: - Remove multiple obsolete or unused groups at once - Clean up groups after organizational restructuring - Batch delete groups for administrative purposes Note: Deleted groups cannot be recovered. Ensure you have the correct group IDs before deletion. |
| `ZOHO_MAIL_GROUPS_DELETE_GROUP_BY_ZGID` | Delete Group | Tool to delete a specific mail group by its zgid. Use when you need to remove a group from your organization after confirming the IDs. |

| `ZOHO_MAIL_MESSAGES_GET_MESSAGE_CONTENT` | Get Message Content | Tool to retrieve the full content/body of a specific Zoho Mail email. Use when you need to fetch the complete email content after listing or searching messages, as list/search endpoints typically return only metadata/summary. |
| `ZOHO_MAIL_MESSAGES_LIST_EMAILS` | List Emails | Tool to retrieve a list of emails from a Zoho Mail account folder. Use when you need to fetch emails from inbox or specific folder, with support for filtering by read status, attachments, flags, and pagination. |

| `ZOHO_MAIL_ORGANIZATION_UPDATE_SPAM_PROCESS_TYPE` | Update Organization Spam Process Type | Tool to update organization spam processing type. Use when changing the spam filtering strategy for an organization. |
| `ZOHO_MAIL_ORGANIZATION_UPDATE_USER_STORAGE` | Update User Storage | Updates a user's storage allocation within a Zoho Mail organization. Can modify either base storage plan or extra storage add-ons. Use this when you need to: - Change a user's base storage plan (e.g., from basic to mailPremium) - Add or modify extra storage add-ons for a user Prerequisites: You must have valid zoid (organization ID) and zuid (user ID) before calling this action. |
| `ZOHO_MAIL_SEARCH_MESSAGES` | Search Messages | Tool to search emails in a Zoho Mail account using Zoho's searchKey syntax.

Install the Composio SDK
```python
pip install composio_openai
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai
```

#### Path 1, Step 2: Initialize Composio and Create Tool Router Session

Import and initialize Composio client, then create a Tool Router session
```python
from openai import OpenAI
from composio import Composio
from composio_openai import OpenAIResponsesProvider

composio = Composio(provider=OpenAIResponsesProvider())
openai = OpenAI()
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
```

import OpenAI from 'openai';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from '@composio/openai';

const composio = new Composio({
  provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider(),
});
const openai = new OpenAI({});
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');
```

#### Path 1, Step 3: Execute Zoho mail Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent

Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Zoho mail actions with your Agent
```python
tools = session.tools
response = openai.responses.create(
  model='gpt-4.1',
  tools=tools,
  input=[{
    'role': 'user',
    'content': 'Get my latest 5 emails from the inbox'
  }]
)
result = composio.provider.handle_tool_calls(
  response=response,
  user_id='your-user-id'
)
print(result)
```

```typescript
const tools = session.tools;
const response = await openai.responses.create({
  model: 'gpt-4.1',
  tools: tools,
  input: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'Get my latest 5 emails from the inbox'
  }],
});
const result = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(
  'your-user-id',
  response.output
);
console.log(result);
```

### Path 2: MCP Server Setup

#### Path 2, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK and Claude Agent SDK
```python
pip install composio claude-agent-sdk
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mcp
```

#### Path 2, Step 2: Create Tool Router Session

Initialize the Composio client and create a Tool Router session
```python
from composio import Composio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions

composio = Composio(api_key='your-composio-api-key')
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
url = session.mcp.url
```

```typescript
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';

const composio = new Composio({ apiKey: 'your-api-key' });

console.log("Creating Tool Router session...");
const { mcp } = await composio.create('your-user-id');
console.log(`Tool Router session created: ${mcp.url}`);
```

#### Path 2, Step 3: Connect to AI Agent

Use the MCP server with your AI agent
```python
import asyncio

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    permission_mode='bypassPermissions',
    mcp_servers={
        'tool_router': {
            'type': 'http',
            'url': url,
            'headers': {
                'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key'
            }
        }
    },
    system_prompt='You are a helpful assistant with access to Zoho mail tools.',
    max_turns=10
)

async def main():
    async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
        await client.query('Get my latest 5 emails from the inbox')
        async for message in client.receive_response():
            if hasattr(message, 'content'):
                for block in message.content:
                    if hasattr(block, 'text'):
                        print(block.text)

asyncio.run(main())
```

```typescript
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from 'ai';

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: {
    type: 'http',
    url: mcp.url,
    headers: { 'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key' }
  }
});

const tools = await client.tools();

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai('gpt-4o'),
  tools,
  messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Get my latest 5 emails from the inbox' }],
  stopWhen: stepCountIs( 5 )
});

console.log(`Agent: ${text}`);
```
