Connect Zoho CRM from your Blinq dashboard and the contacts you capture flow into Zoho as leads or contacts, with no manual export. It's a one-way export: contacts and updates move from Blinq into Zoho, and changes you make in Zoho don't sync back to Blinq.
What you can do
Connect Zoho CRM from your Blinq dashboard, alongside your other integrations.
Export new captured contacts to Zoho automatically, or hold them for manual review first.
Choose whether contacts land in Zoho as leads or contacts.
Keep Zoho up to date when you change a contact in Blinq.
Sync your contacts to Zoho on demand.
Who can use this
Zoho CRM connects from the Blinq web dashboard. Connecting it and changing its settings is done by a workspace admin or owner.
Connect Zoho CRM
In the Blinq dashboard, go to Settings, then the Integrations tab.
Under Export contacts, find Zoho CRM and select Connect.
Choose how to authenticate: Use my admin credentials (recommended) or Use my non-admin credentials.
Review the access Blinq needs, then select Next.
Select your Zoho account type (region), for example US (zoho.com), Australian (zoho.com.au), EU (zohoapis.eu), Indian (zoho.in), Japanese (zoho.jp), or Canadian (zohocloud.ca). Make sure it matches the region of the Zoho account you're connecting, then select Open window.
Sign in to Zoho and authorise the connection when prompted.
Blinq sets up the connection. This can take a few minutes. When you see You're connected, select Finish.
Zoho CRM now shows a Settings button in your integrations list, and you'll see a "Zoho CRM connected successfully" confirmation.
Choose your sync settings
Open Settings > Integrations > Zoho CRM to control how contacts sync. These settings apply to your whole workspace.
Export Blinq contacts as. Choose whether contacts are created in Zoho as Leads or Contacts.
How new contacts sync. Choose Automatic to push new contacts to Zoho as they're captured, or Manual review to hold them for review first.
Automatically update changes to Blinq contacts. When on, changes you make to a contact in Blinq also update the matching record in Zoho.
Select Save to apply your settings. You can also select Sync contacts to push your contacts to Zoho on demand.
Why it helps
Skip the manual CSV export and re-import; contacts land in Zoho automatically.
Follow up faster, with leads in your CRM while they're still fresh.
Keep your pipeline current, with nothing lost between an event and Zoho.
FAQ
Which Zoho region should I choose?
Choose the region that matches your Zoho account (for example, zoho.com.au for Australia or zoho.com for the US). If the region doesn't match, the connection won't find your account.
Is the Zoho sync two-way?
No. It's a one-way export from Blinq to Zoho. New contacts and any changes you make in Blinq push into Zoho, but changes made in Zoho don't come back into Blinq.
Can I choose whether contacts land as leads or contacts?
Yes. Set "Export Blinq contacts as" to Leads or Contacts in your Zoho settings.
Who can connect Zoho CRM?
A workspace admin or owner, from Settings, then Integrations. Admin credentials are recommended when you authenticate.
