Apollo.io integration with Zoho CRMApollo prospecting that lands in Zoho CRM clean and tagged
Apollo has its own Zoho CRM connection. It pulls your contacts and accounts into Apollo, maps Apollo stages to Zoho statuses and pushes the records you choose back to Zoho CRM. We set up the mapping and push rules, then make Zoho CRM ready for the data with source fields, duplicate checks, assignment and reports.
- Apollo's native Zoho CRM connection set up and extended
- Fields and stages mapped to your Zoho CRM setup
- Apollo sourced records tagged and matched before they are created

Prospect lists that do not match the CRM
Without a planned setup, Apollo records reach Zoho CRM without a source, under one owner, or as duplicates of leads you already have. Stages in Apollo do not line up with statuses in Zoho, and nobody can report on what Apollo brings in.
What it does
What the Apollo.io integration with Zoho CRM handles
Connection setup
Apollo connected to Zoho CRM from Apollo's integration settings, with the right Zoho user and permissions.
Field mapping
Apollo's default fields mapped, plus your custom Zoho CRM fields for the enrichment data you want kept.
Stage to status mapping
Each Apollo stage mapped one to one to a Zoho CRM status, so records sit where your pipeline expects them.
Push rules
Which new records Apollo pushes to Zoho CRM, and at which stages, set to match how your team works.
Source fields
Lead Source and a source detail field set on records from Apollo, so reports separate it from your other sources.
Duplicates caught first
Duplicate checks and unique fields on email and phone in Zoho CRM, and existing duplicates cleaned up first.
Owner and assignment
Assignment rules that give Apollo records the right owner.
Custom additions
Where you need something the native connection does not cover, we build it with the Zoho CRM API and Deluge.

Built for real life
Apollo.io integration with Zoho CRM: the hard parts, already solved
One CRM at a time
Apollo connects to one CRM at a time. If another CRM is connected in Apollo today, it is disconnected before Zoho CRM is connected.
Stage mapping
Mapping one Apollo stage to more than one Zoho status confuses the sync. We keep the mapping one to one.
Opt-outs
Email opt-out and do not call fields mapped, so a prospect who opted out in Zoho CRM is not sequenced in Apollo.
