# Zoho CRM

Zoho CRM allows access to its services using OAuth, which is a way to authenticate Zoho users on other websites. This allows Zoho users to integrate and perform automated tasks on their account using the iMBrace platform.

## Account integration using OAuth <a href="#id-2mc4acv73zhw" id="id-2mc4acv73zhw"></a>

To begin, you will need:

* A Zoho CRM account.

**STEP 1:** Go to the **Zoho API Console** (<https://api-console.zoho.com/>).

**STEP 2:** Go to **\[Get Started] > \[Server-based Applications]**.

**STEP 3:** In iMBrace, create a new credential of type **Zoho OAuth2 API** and identify the **OAuth redirect URL**.
