Please read this article first of all here.

If you have not seen How to Create Lead using Zoho CRM then I recommend you to see that first. in that article, I described how to Create lead using Zoho CRM.

C# Code Example

Open the HomeController.cs file and add the below code in it.

Upload Attachments

public void UploadAttachmets()
  {
      ZCRMModule moduleIns = ZCRMModule.GetInstance("Leads"); //module api name
      BulkAPIResponse<ZCRMRecord> response1 = moduleIns.GetRecords();
      List<ZCRMRecord> relatedLists = response1.BulkData;
      ZCRMRecord recordIns = ZCRMRecord.GetInstance("Leads", relatedLists[0].EntityId);//module api name with record id
      APIResponse response = recordIns.UploadAttachment("Your File Path");
      ZCRMAttachment uploadAttachment = (ZCRMAttachment)response.Data;
  }

 

Get List Of Attachments

public void GetListOfAttachments()
 {
         ZCRMModule moduleIns = ZCRMModule.GetInstance("Leads"); //module api name
         BulkAPIResponse<ZCRMRecord> response1 = moduleIns.GetRecords();
         List<ZCRMRecord> relatedLists = response1.BulkData;
         ZCRMRecord recordIns = ZCRMRecord.GetInstance("Leads", relatedLists[0].EntityId); //module api name with record id
         BulkAPIResponse<ZCRMAttachment> response = recordIns.GetAttachments();
         List<ZCRMAttachment> attachments = response.BulkData; //attachments - list of ZCRMAttachment instance
 }

 

Download Attachments

public void DownloadAttachments()
 {
        ZCRMModule moduleIns = ZCRMModule.GetInstance("Leads"); //module api name
         BulkAPIResponse<ZCRMRecord> response1 = moduleIns.GetRecords();
         List<ZCRMRecord> relatedLists = response1.BulkData;

         ZCRMRecord recordIns = ZCRMRecord.GetInstance("Leads", relatedLists[0].EntityId); //module api name with record id
        
         FileAPIResponse response = recordIns.DownloadAttachment(your attachment id); //attachmentID

         Stream file = response.GetFileAsStream();
         CommonUtil.SaveStreamAsFile("Your File Save Path", file, response.GetFileName());
        
  }
