Sync interested replies to Zoho CRM with Zapier or n8n
When a reply is labeled Interested, a webhook sends the lead, company and thread link to Zapier or n8n, which creates the Zoho CRM lead with the source set to cold email.
Why teams run it
Teams on Zoho get the same reply to CRM flow as HubSpot teams, without copy and paste.
Set it up in Master Inbox
- In Master Inbox, open Settings, then Workflows, and click Add a workflow.
- Name it Sync interested replies to Zoho CRM with Zapier or n8n.
- Set the trigger to Add Label and choose Interested.
- Add the action Send a webhook: Send name, email, company, reply text and thread URL to Zapier or n8n, which creates the Zoho CRM lead.
- Save the workflow and switch it to Active.
Or create it with the API
Everything in the workflow builder is also in the Master Inbox API. This request creates the same workflow. Replace the example ids with your own label, list and campaign ids from GET /workflows/filter-fields.

Or ask Claude, ChatGPT or Grok to build it
Our workflow guide is written for AI agents to read. Give your assistant your API key and this prompt:
Read https://app.masterinbox.com/public-workflow-api.md and use my Master Inbox API key to create this workflow: "Sync interested replies to Zoho CRM with Zapier or n8n". First call GET /workflows/filter-fields and look up my label, list and channel ids, then create the workflow and tell me what you set up.Questions
Does Master Inbox connect to Zoho directly?
Zoho CRM sync runs through a webhook to Zapier, n8n or Make. Zoho mailboxes connect directly as sending channels.
Can I update an existing Zoho lead instead?
Yes. Search by email in Zapier or n8n first, then update or create.
Can I build this workflow through the API?
Yes. Send the create-workflow request shown on this page with your Master Inbox API key. The API checks the payload first and lists every problem by field if anything is off.
Which plan includes this?
This workflow works on the Revenue plan. Every plan has unlimited users and starts with a free 7-day POC.
