Get Records From Zoho Inventory

Note:

  • Each time the zoho.inventory.getRecords 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.inventory.getRecords 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.
