Zoho Analytics API

Zoho Analytics API offers wide range of functions to help developers build & manage powerful reporting and analytical capabilities for their business application needs. You can add powerful business intelligence capabilities to your product/application, build add-ons to analyze data from third-party business applications (eg., Google Ad-words, Google Analytics, CRM systems etc., ) that you use and do much more. In-fact Zoho Analytics API is used by many Zoho Applications ( Zoho CRM , Zoho Creator , Zoho Projects , Zoho Books …) for seamlessly providing Reporting and Analytical features based on Zoho Analytics to their users.

Easy to use programming language wrappers called “Client Libraries” are provided to conveniently use the Zoho Analytics API from within your familiar programming language like Java, C#, Python, PHP, GO and Google Applications.

Prerequisites

  1. Users should have a valid Zoho login email address to use the API. If you do not have one, please Sign up into Zoho Analytics and create a login.

  2. It is mandatory to use HTTPS in all API requests instead of HTTP request. HTTP is not supported

  3. Choose your <ZohoAnalytics_Server_URI> and use the same in API request URI.

  4. An access token is mandatory to authorize the user. Refer this link to know how to generate an access token.

Note:

Authentication

Zoho Analytics REST API supports OAuth 2.0 protocol to authorize and authenticate API calls. Follow the steps listed here to use OAuth 2.0 protocol in Zoho Analytics APIs.


Registering New Client

Follow the below steps to register with Zoho's Developer console.

  1. Visit DeveloperConsole and click GET STARTED.
  2. Choose Client Type that suits your application type. Zoho Analytics
    • Client-based Applications: Applications that are built to run exclusively on browsers independent of web servers.
    • Server-based Applications: Web-based applications that are built to run with a dedicated HTTP server.
      NOTE:Server-based applications are chosen when your application is used by multiple users and requires user intervention during authorization.
    • Mobile-based Applications: Applications that are built to run on smartphones and tablets.
    • Non-browser Applications: Applications that run on devices without browsers such as smart TVs and printers.
    • Self Client: For standalone server-side application performing a back-end job, and you do not have a domain and a redirect URL.
      NOTE:Self Client type is recommended for users using ZohoAnalytics UploadTool and ZohoAnalytics Client Libraries.
  3. After choosing the client type, provide the required details and click 'Create'.

On successful registration, you will be provided with a set of OAuth 2.0 credentials such as <Client_ID> and <Client_Secret> that will be only known to Zoho and your application. (Do not share this credentials anywhere)


Generating Code

After generating <Client_ID> and <Client_Secret>, a grant code has to be generated. Based on the client type the code can be generated in two ways.

SELF CLIENT METHOD

Save this code and continue to step 3.

REDIRECT METHOD


The below URL is used to generate code.

https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/auth?scope=<SCOPE>&client_id=<CLIENT_ID>&state=testing&response_type=code&redirect_uri=<REDIRECT_URI>&access_type=offline&prompt=consent


Generating Tokens

REFRESH TOKEN

Refresh token is used to obtain new access tokens. This token has an unlimited lifetime, it can be revoked manually.

ACCESS TOKEN

A token that is sent to the resource server to access the protected resources of the user. Each access token will be valid only for an hour, and can be used only for the set of operations that is described in the scope.

After generating code, a POST request to be made for the following URI with the params given below, to generate refresh_token and access_token.

METHOD : POST

https://<ZohoAccounts_Server_URI>/oauth/v2/token?


The below URL is used to generate access token and refresh token.

https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/token?code=<CODE>&client_id=<CLIENT_ID>&client_secret=<CLIENT_SECRET>&redirect_uri=<REDIRECT_URI>&grant_type=authorization_code
Parameter Description
code* <code> which is obtained in the above step (Step 2)
client_id* <client_id> obtained during Client Registration (Step 1)
client_secret* <client_secret> obtained during Client Registration (Step 1)
redirect_uri This param should be same redirect url mentioned while adding Client (Step 1).
This param is not required when self client application type is choosen during Client Registration (Step 1).
grant_type* authorization_code (provide this literal string as value)
scope Scope (scope is nothing but a permission to access specific API) for which the token to be generated. Multiple scopes can be given which has to be separated by commas.
Example: ZohoAnalytics.data.all,ZohoAnalytics.modeling.create
Refer: available scopes
state An opaque string that is round-tripped in the protocol; that is to say, value will be passed back to the user.

Note: Fields with * are mandatory

1. The <access_token> will expire after an hour.

2. The <refresh_token> is permanent and will be used to regenerate new <access_token>, if the current access token expired.

NOTE: Each time a re-consent page is accepted, a new refresh token is generated. The maximum limit is 20 refresh tokens per user. If this limit is crossed, the first refresh token is automatically deleted to accommodate the latest one. This is done irrespective of whether the first refresh token is in use or not. (You can manually delete a refresh token by revoke request)


Refreshing Access Tokens

Access Tokens have limited validity. It expires in one hour. Once the access_token expires, user (or) the app will have to use the refresh token to request for a new access token. On using an expired access token, the request terminates throwing Invalid Oauthtoken.

NOTE: Using a refresh token a client can create up to ten access tokens in a span of ten minutes. If the limit is reached, the access token creation will be blocked for the rest of the ten minutes.

The following POST URI with the params given below, generates a new access token.

METHOD : POST

https://<ZohoAccounts_Server_URI>/oauth/v2/token?


The below URL is used to Generating Access Token From Refresh Token.

https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/token?refresh_token=<REFRESH_TOKEN>&client_id=<CLIENT_ID>&client_secret=<CLIENT_SECRET>&redirect_uri=<REDIRECT_URI>&grant_type=refresh_token
Parameter Description
refresh_token* <refresh_token> which is obtained in the above step (Step 3)
client_id* <client_id> obtained during Client Registration (Step 1)
client_secret* <client_secret> obtained during Client Registration (Step 1)
redirect_uri This param should be same redirect url mentioned while registering Client (Step 1).
This param is not required when self client application type is choosen during Client Registration (Step 1).
grant_type* refresh_token (provide this literal string as value)

Calling an API using OAuth authentication

Access Token can be passed only in header and cannot be passed in the request param.


Revoking a Refresh Token

You may choose to revoke a refresh token manually, when you no longer need access for a particular scope.

Call the following POST URL with the given params to revoke a refresh token.

METHOD : POST

https://<ZohoAccounts_Server_URI>/oauth/v2/token/revoke?

Request Example


The below URL is used to revoke the refresh token.

https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/token/revoke?token=<REFRESH_TOKEN>
Parameter Description
token <refresh_token> which is to be revoked


SCOPE

Zoho Analytics APIs use selected scopes, which control the type of API's that the client application (or) end user can access. Tokens are usually created with specific scopes to restrict it from acceessing other API's. For example, You can generate a scope to create a view (or) to view metadata and so on. Scopes contain three parameters — service name, scope name, and operation type.

<param>1=<value>1&<param2>=<value2>....

The parameters should be encoded in application/x-www-form-urlencoded format (This is the default format used by any simple html form).

Note: In the case of importing CSV or JSON files multipart/form-data format should be used. (This is the default format used by HTML forms that contain file type fields used for uploading files)


Response Format

Sample Response : For ADDROW


Sample response to a request adding a row to the table.

XML Format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<response uri="/api/EmailAddress/WorkspaceName/TableName" action="ADDROW">
    <result>
        <!-- All the columns in the row , including formula columns -->
        <row>
            <column name="Name">Gary</column>
            <column name="Date Of Birth">12-Jun-1980</column>
            <column name="Basic">10000</column>
            <column name="Country">USA</column>
        </row>
    </result>
<response>

JSON Format:

{
    "response":
    {
        "uri": "/api/EmailAddress/WorkspaceName/TableName",
        "action": "ADDROW",
        "result":
        {
            "column_order":["Name","Date Of Birth","Salary","Country"],
            "rows":
            ["Gary","12-Jun-1980",10000,"USA"]
        }
    }
}

The response format of the API request is controlled by the ZOHO_OUTPUT_FORMAT query parameter passed in the request. Currently Zoho Analytics supports XML and JSON response formats. CSV and PDF response formats are supported only for Export action.

Note: See this link for response formats in case of errors on API execution.

XML Format

The response will have the <response> tag as the root node. It might either contain a <result> or <error> node as it’s child, but not both. The <result> node will be present under normal circumstances, whereas <error> node will be present in case of error conditions.

Format

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<response uri="/api/EmailAddress/WorkspaceName/TableName" action="<specifiedaction>">

<result>

[specific XML response based on action]

</result>

</response>

JSON Format

JSON format follows the same pattern as that of XML format.

Format

{

"response":

{

"uri": "/api/EmailAddress/WorkspaceName/TableName",

"action": "<specified action>",

"result": {[action specific properties]}

}

}

Other Formats

Other formats such as CSV, PDF can be specified only when ZOHO_ACTION is EXPORT. These formats don’t have any generic parseable header/footer. See this link for more details about these formats.


Error handling

Sample error response : IMPORT DATA


Sample error response for import data in Table.

XML Format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<response url="/api/EmailAddress/WorkspaceName/TableName" action="IMPORT">
    <error>
        <code>7138</code>
        <message>
        Table "TableName" is not present in the workspace "WorkspaceName"
        </message>
    </error>
</response>

JSON Format:

            "message": "Table "TableName" is not present in the workspace "WorkspaceName""
        }
    }
}

API execution could result in Error conditions. In such cases, follow the below steps to identify an error condition and handle the same:

XML Format

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<response uri="/api/EmailAddress/WorkspaceName/TableName" action="<specifiedaction>">

<error>

[error details]

</error>

</response>

JSON Format

{

"response":

{

"uri": "/api/EmailAddress/WorkspaceName/TableName",

"action": "<specified action>",

"error": {[error details]}

}

}


Applying Filter Criteria

Example


(( "Department"='Finance' and "Salary" < 9000) or ("Department"='Admin'
and "Salary" < 8000))

Sample


A sample delete request that deletes all the rows that match
the criteria "s2">"Department"='Finance'
is given below.

URL:


https://analyticsapi.zoho.com/api/<OwnerEmail>/<WorkspaceName>/<Name>?
ZOHO_ACTION=DELETE&ZOHO_OUTPUT_FORMAT=XML&ZOHO_ERROR_FORMAT=XML
&ZOHO_API_VERSION=1.0 

Data Sent as POST parameters.


ZOHO_CRITERIA=("Department"='Finance')

ZOHO_CRITERIA is encoded for the url format. Unencoded value is provided below.
ZOHO_CRITERIA=("Department"='Finance') 

Zoho Analytics API allows you to apply filter criteria while you execute the various actions. When you apply a criteria, the action will be performed only on the data that matches the filter criteria given.

You can apply criteria as part of the following API actions:

The filter criteria has to be passed as a parameter, named ZOHO_CRITERIA, to the action request. This should be part of the body of the POST request.

Format

The filter criteria that is passed as part of the request, should follow the same format as that of the SQL SELECT WHERE clause.

The generalized format of a simple criteria is given below:

(<columnname/SQL expression/SQL function calls> <relational operator> <value/column name/SQL expression/SQL function calls>)

On using ZOHO_CRITERIA for views which involves multiple tables having same column name, the criteria should append with tablename to avoid name clash.

<tablename>.<columnname> <relational operator> <value/column name/SQL expression/SQL function calls>

Description

The criteria follows the SQL SELECT WHERE condition like format. You could also use SQL in-built functions as part of the criteria. These built-in functions should be the functions supported by any of Oracle, MS SQL Server, MySQL, DB2, Sybase, ANSI SQL, Informix and PostgreSQL databases.

Name Description
column name Refers to the name of the column in table or query table on which you are applying a criteria
SQL Expression You could provide any valid SQL Expression.
The above expression subtract the value in the “Cost” column from value in the “Sales” column. You could use any of the Arithmetic operator supported in an SQL SELECT WHERE clause.Supported
Arithmetic Operators:
+, -, *, /
SQL Function call Oracle, MS SQL Server, MySQL, DB2, Sybase, ANSI SQL, Informix and PostgreSQL databases
Eg.: year(date_column) = 2008 .
Note: All supported in-built function from different databases will be documented soon.
relational operator This could be any of the relational operators supported in an SQL SELECT WHERE clause.
Supported Relational Operators:
  • =
  • !=
  • <
  • >
  • <=
  • >=
  • LIKE
  • NOT LIKE
  • IN
  • NOT IN
  • BETWEEN
  • value Refers to the exact value to match.
    Eg.: "Department" = 'Finance'
    here 'Finance' is a literal value to match.

    NOTES FOR CRITERIA FORMATION:

    Refer to the SQL SELECT WHERE clause documentation of any database that we support, to know more on how to construct the filter criteria.
