Does n8n support Zoho Self Client 'Client Type' Authentication?

[sumith]

Describe the problem/error/question

I’m hitting an error when trying to create an OAuth client in Zoho API using ’ Server-based Applications as suggested in Zoho credentials | n8n Docs. I noticed that Zoho has another ‘Client Type’ - Self Client - if one only want to work with their Zoho data. That option provides a Client ID and Client Secret as required by n8n too.

What is the error message (if any)?

When I provide ‘Self Client’ OAuth ID and Secret, I do get the option ‘Connect my account’ on n8n. I’m running n8n locally in docker. However, when I complete the Zoho authentication in the popup, I get this

Any pointers on what could be the issue?

hello @sumith

I think n8n’s Zoho node is not supporting a self-client auth type. You can use the HTTP Node and OAuth 2.0 API with Client Credentials grant type

Thanks @barn4k
Unfortunately, Zoho has changed the key creation and is giving an error without much info. I’ll reach out to Zoho support to figure out what the issue is.
