Get Module Metadata

Table of Contents

You can get a particular module's metadata using the zoho.crm.invokeConnector() deluge task.

Note:

  • This task can be performed only in Zoho CRM Vertical Solutions.
  • Each time the zoho.crm.invokeConnector integration task is executed, it triggers an API request in the back-end. This call is deducted from the external calls limit available for the service from which the task is executed, based on your pricing plan.
  • Only actual executions that receive a response (whether success or failure) are counted, not the number of times the task appears in the script. For example, if zoho.crm.invokeConnector integration task is placed inside a for each task that iterates five times, the number of external calls consumed will be five, even though the task appears only once in the script. 

Syntax

<Response> = zoho.crm.invokeConnector("crm.modulemetadata", <module Map>);
