BBTech Zoho Connector Core

The foundational framework for all Zoho ↔ Odoo integrations. Provides OAuth2 instance management, automatic token refresh, robust job queue engine with retry logic, secure webhook gateway, external bindings with loop prevention, and comprehensive logging. Built with full multi-company support.

BBTech Zoho Connector Core

Complete Zoho Integration Foundation

The BBTech Zoho Connector Core is the essential foundation module that powers all Zoho ↔ Odoo integrations. It provides centralized OAuth2 management, a powerful job queue engine with exponential backoff retry, secure webhook endpoints, and an intelligent bindings system that prevents synchronization loops. Designed for enterprise-grade reliability with full multi-company and multi-region support.

Zoho Connector Core Overview

A) Instance & OAuth2 Setup

Centralized Zoho instance management with secure OAuth2 authentication:

  • Multi-Instance Support: Connect multiple Zoho accounts/organizations per company
  • Region-Aware: Automatic API domain configuration for all Zoho data centers (US, EU, IN, AU, JP, CA, SA)
  • OAuth2 Flow: Secure authorization code flow with automatic token storage
  • Token Refresh: Automatic background refresh before expiration with cron scheduler
  • Secret Masking: Tokens and secrets never exposed in logs or error messages
  • Test Connection: One-click validation of API access and token validity

B) Job Queue & Retry Engine

Enterprise-grade asynchronous job processing with intelligent retry:

  • Async Processing: All sync operations run as background jobs, never blocking the UI
  • Exponential Backoff: Failed jobs retry with increasing delays (configurable cap)
  • Max Retry Limit: Configurable maximum attempts before marking job as failed
  • Concurrency Control: SELECT FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED prevents duplicate processing
  • System Parameters: Configurable max_jobs_per_run, max_runtime_seconds, retry_backoff_cap
  • Job States: Pending → Running → Done/Failed/Cancelled with full state tracking
  • Payload Storage: Complete request/response payloads stored for debugging

C) Webhook Gateway & Security

Secure webhook endpoint for real-time Zoho notifications:

  • Unified Endpoint: Single webhook URL pattern for all Zoho apps: /zoho/webhook/<instance_id>/<app>/<object>
  • Secret Validation: X-Zoho-Webhook-Secret header verification per instance
  • Deduplication: Built-in protection against duplicate webhook deliveries
  • Burst Protection: Configurable rate limiting for high-volume webhook events
  • Job Enqueue: Webhooks enqueue jobs for async processing, immediate 200 response
  • Audit Logging: All webhook events logged with timestamp and payload hash

D) Bindings & Loop Prevention

Intelligent record linking with built-in synchronization loop prevention:

  • External Bindings: Links Odoo records to Zoho IDs with app/object classification
  • Hash-Based Detection: sync_hash field detects meaningful changes vs noise
  • Context Flags: zoho_skip_push context prevents circular sync loops
  • Helper Methods: get_binding(), set_binding(), update_hash(), has_changed() utilities
  • Multi-App Support: Single binding table supports all Zoho apps (CRM, Books, People, etc.)
  • Orphan Protection: Bindings deleted when Odoo record is deleted

E) Monitoring & Error Center

Comprehensive monitoring and error tracking capabilities:

  • Instance Health: Dashboard showing connection status, token validity, API reachability
  • Full Health Check: One-click comprehensive validation of all connector components
  • Job Statistics: Real-time counts by status (pending, running, done, failed)
  • Error Logging: Detailed error messages with timestamps and stack traces
  • Secret Protection: Automatic masking of tokens and credentials in all logs
  • Dashboard Stats: get_dashboard_stats() for aggregated metrics

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this module required for other Zoho connectors?
A: Yes, this Core module is a mandatory dependency for all BBTech Zoho connector modules. It provides the shared infrastructure (OAuth, jobs, bindings, webhooks) that all connectors use.
Q: How does OAuth2 token refresh work?
A: The module includes a scheduled cron job that automatically refreshes OAuth2 tokens before they expire. Tokens are securely stored and never exposed in logs or error messages.
Q: What happens when a sync job fails?
A: Failed jobs are automatically retried with exponential backoff (e.g., 1min, 2min, 4min, up to configurable cap). After max retries, the job is marked as failed for manual review. All errors are logged with full details.
Q: Does it support multiple Zoho organizations?
A: Yes, you can create multiple Zoho instances, each with its own OAuth credentials and settings. Multi-company support ensures data isolation with proper record rules.
Q: How are synchronization loops prevented?
A: The module uses a combination of sync_hash comparison and zoho_skip_push context flags. When a record is updated from Zoho, the context flag prevents it from being pushed back, breaking the loop.
