Zoho Inventory

Zoho Inventory API integration with managed OAuth. Manage items, sales orders, invoices, purchase orders, bills, contacts, and shipments. Use this skill when users want to read, create, update, or delete inventory items, sales orders, invoices, purchase orders, bills, or other inventory records in Zoho Inventory.

Zoho Inventory

Access the Zoho Inventory API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage items, sales orders, invoices, purchase orders, bills, contacts, shipment orders, and item groups with full CRUD operations.

Quick Start

# List items
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-inventory/inventory/v1/items')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Base URL

https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-inventory/inventory/v1/{endpoint}

The gateway proxies requests to www.zohoapis.com/inventory/v1 and automatically injects your OAuth token.

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Getting Your API Key

  1. Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
  2. Go to maton.ai/settings
  3. Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your Zoho Inventory OAuth connections at https://ctrl.maton.ai.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=zoho-inventory&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'zoho-inventory'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Get Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Response: json { "connection": { "connection_id": "21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80", "status": "ACTIVE", "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z", "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z", "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...", "app": "zoho-inventory", "metadata": {} } }

Open the returned url in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

Delete Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Specifying Connection

If you have multiple Zoho Inventory connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-inventory/inventory/v1/items')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

Pagination

Zoho Inventory uses page-based pagination:

GET /zoho-inventory/inventory/v1/items?page=1&per_page=50

Response includes pagination info in page_context:

{
  "code": 0,
  "message": "success",
  "items": [...],
  "page_context": {
    "page": 1,
    "per_page": 50,
    "has_more_page": true,
    "sort_column": "name",
    "sort_order": "A"
  }
}

Continue fetching while has_more_page is true, incrementing page each time.

Code Examples

JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-inventory/inventory/v1/items',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();

Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-inventory/inventory/v1/items',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}
)
data = response.json()

Notes

  • All successful responses have code: 0 and a message field
  • Dates should be in yyyy-mm-dd format
  • Contact types are customer or vendor
  • Item types: inventory, sales, purchases, sales_and_purchases
  • Product types: goods or service
  • The organization_id parameter is automatically handled by the gateway - you do not need to specify it
  • Sales order and purchase order numbers are auto-generated by default - do not specify salesorder_number or purchaseorder_number unless auto-generation is disabled in settings
  • Status action endpoints use POST method (e.g., /status/confirmed, /status/void)
  • Rate limits: 100 requests/minute per organization
  • Daily limits vary by plan: Free (1,000), Standard (2,500), Professional (5,000), Premium (7,500), Enterprise (10,000)
  • IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing
  • IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq or other commands, environment variables like $MATON_API_KEY may not expand correctly in some shell environments

Error Handling

Status Meaning
400 Missing Zoho Inventory connection or invalid request
401 Invalid or missing Maton API key, or OAuth scope mismatch
404 Resource not found
429 Rate limited
4xx/5xx Passthrough error from Zoho Inventory API

Common Error Codes

Code Description
0 Success
1 Invalid value
2 Mandatory field missing
3 Resource does not exist
5 Invalid URL

Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

  1. Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:
echo $MATON_API_KEY
  1. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

  1. Ensure your URL path starts with zoho-inventory. For example:
  • Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/zoho-inventory/inventory/v1/items
  • Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/inventory/v1/items
