Introduction to Catalyst API

Overview

Catalyst API offers a wide range of functionalities that enable an application developer to work with the Catalyst components remotely in their application. You can build and manage your Catalyst application using the APIs, as well as perform remote operations on it, similar to working with it using the Catalyst web console.

For example, you can perform operations such as inserting data in a table in the Data Store, obtaining details of a folder in the File Store, or executing a function using the respective APIs.

Catalyst implements REST API standards, and supports HTTP requests and responses for accessing its resources. Catalyst resources are exposed through their endpoint URLs, and the HTTP clients can access these endpoints using their specific APIs.

Catalyst implements the following basic REST API principles:

  • The endpoint URL of each instance of a Catalyst resource is unique.
  • The HTTP method in the request dictates the operation to be performed on the resource.
  • Additional payload information is passed as parameters in the request. They contain the details of the operation to be performed.
  • Each request initiates a response from Catalyst.

You can refer to the request format and response format sections for details and examples.

Note:You can implement Catalyst functionalities in your application using the SDK provided for each programming environment. Catalyst SDKs provide better convenience and ease in your application building process, and enable you to perform all Catalyst operations that you can perform while working with the API. Refer to the SDK help documentations of the supported programming environments in Catalyst: Java SDK, NodeJS SDK, Web SDK, Android SDK, iOS SDK, Flutter SDK.

Prerequisites

Before you begin working with Catalyst API, you must ensure that the following prerequisites are satisfied:

  • A valid Zoho user account: Ensure that you have a valid Zoho login email address and password. You can sign up for a Zoho account here.
  • An authentication token: You must obtain a valid OAuth access_token to access Catalyst API.

The help pages in OAuth 2.0 Authentication section will guide you in the process of understanding and obtaining authentication tokens.

All Catalyst APIs will be accessible to a Catalyst user in the App Administrator role, (Catalyst application developer) after they obtain their access_token. All the collaborators of a particular project will also be able to execute all Catalyst APIs using their access_token.

However, only certain operations are accessible for the users in the App User role, i.e., the end users of a Catalyst application with a Catalyst user authentication. The end user can only perform operations related to accessing specific application data, and not operations that modify the application. Each API help page will provide you with information on the execution permissions defined for it.


Note:

  • If you want to execute Catalyst operations without generating any authentication tokens, you can use Catalyst SDK instead

  • Catalyst currently does not support a separate API authentication process for end users of Catalyst applications. If you implement Catalyst SDK in your application code, the authentication is automatically handled as an App Administrator authentication. To use Catalyst API independently, you must follow the steps described in th OAuth 2.0 Authentication section to generate OAuth authentication tokens.


Multi-DC Support

Overview

Catalyst is currently hosted in five data centers. The base API URI to access all Catalyst APIs and the Zoho Accounts Server URI will be different based on the data center you are accessing Catalyst from.

You must use the appropriate domain based on your location while sending an API request in Catalyst. This prevents conflicts with your browser and enables a smooth integration with your current session.

The five data centers and their respective base API URIs supported by Catalyst for all APIs are:

  • US (USA): https://api.catalyst.zoho.com
  • EU (Europe): https://api.catalyst.zoho.eu
  • IN (India): https://api.catalyst.zoho.in
  • AU (Australia): https://api.catalyst.zoho.au
  • CA (Canada): https://api.catalyst.zohocloud.ca

The corresponding Zoho Accounts Server URI for the five data centers that you must use while implementing OAuth 2.0 authentication are:

  • US: https://accounts.zoho.com
  • EU: https://accounts.zoho.eu
  • IN: https://accounts.zoho.in
  • AU: https://accounts.zoho.au
  • CA: https://accounts.zohocloud.ca

Usage

You must ensure you perform the following actions to make use of Catalyst’s multi-DC support:

  • You must use the appropriate Zoho Accounts Server URI in all the steps while implementing OAuth 2.0 authentication, such as while making an authorization request to generate the grant token, access token, or refresh token.

    For example, you can make this request to generate the grant token using a redirect method for the EU data center:
    
copy


A response with the grant token will be returned after redirecting to the redirect URI, which will contain a location parameter as shown below:



This location parameter specifies the domain of your account. In this case, the location is returned as eu.

  • You can enable multi-DC support after you register your client in Zoho’s API console. This lets you provide access to your application to users of a specific domain alone. For example, you can disable access to your application for the IN users and enable it for the other users. Refer to Register a New Client section for details.
  • As mentioned earlier, you must use the appropriate base API URI while sending an API request. For example, to fetch all rows in a table in your Data Store, you must execute the following request URL for the EU data center: https://api.catalyst.zoho.eu/baas/v1/project/{project_id}/table/{tableIdentifier}/row

Multi-Org Support

Overview

Catalyst allows you to create and manage multiple organizations within your Catalyst account. A unique Org ID will be generated for every organization you create. You can create individual projects in each organization and also assign access permissions to people contributing to the project.

You can only have one organization in your account as the default one. The organization marked as default will be logged in automatically when you sign in to your Catalyst account every time.

While you execute an API from Catalyst, it will be executed for the default organization automatically. For instance, when you pass the project ID in your API request, Catalyst will automatically look for a project with the same ID in your default organization. However, you can execute an API for other organizations that are not the default by exclusively passing the unique Org ID of those organizations in your requests.

Usage

You can pass the Org ID as a header in an API request to access a project in that organization in this format:

    
Sample API Header Format
copy

-H CATALYST-ORG: 15090237

You can check a complete sample request from the Request Format section.


Request Format

Request Methods

Catalyst API follows the REST standards and supports the following HTTP methods for client requests for the described purposes:

  • GET : To fetch records from a Catalyst resource
  • POST : To insert new records in a Catalyst resource
  • PUT : To update existing records in a Catalyst resource
  • DELETE : To delete existing records in a Catalyst resource

You must specify the request method for the operation while executing a Catalyst API request.

Request URL

The API requests are sent in the CURL format. A typical request URL is of the format:

https://api.catalyst.zoho.com/baas/v1/project/{project_id}
/{resource_name}/{additional_resource_details}


Note: The base API URL will be the following for the other data centers:

  • EU: https://api.catalyst.zoho.eu
  • IN: https://api.catalyst.zoho.in
  • AU: https://api.catalyst.zoho.au
  • CA: https://api.catalyst.zohocloud.ca

The common parameters passed in the request URL include the Project ID of the Catalyst project and the resource ID of the specific resource instance that is being accessed.

Request Headers

Mandatory header passed in the cURL request includes the following:

Recommended headers passed in the cURL request can include the following:

  • Content-Type: A REST API standard that indicates the original media type of the resource passed. It is highly recommended to pass this header when the API requests include JSON payload or form data, for example.

Optional headers passed in the cURL request can include the following:

  • Org ID: The Org ID of an organization that is not the default. You can obtain the Org ID from the multi-org portal in the Catalyst console.
Note: If you do not pass an Org ID in your request explicitly, the API will be executed for the default organization.
  • Environment: The environmental header to specify the environment the request must be executed for. You can indicate if the API request should be executed for the development or production environment of the project.
Note: If the project has been deployed to the production environment, then by default the API request will be executed for production, unless you specifically point to development using this header. If the project is not available in production, all API requests will be executed in the development environment automatically.

Request Body

Based on the purpose of the request, you can pass additional data in the body of the request in an API call, such as the column name and value for updating the column of a table, or the folder name for creating a folder.


The particulars of the request to be sent, such as the headers and JSON attributes to be passed in the request, are specified in each API help page for the specific request.

    
Sample API Request
copy

curl “https://api.catalyst.zoho.com/baas/v1/project/4000000006007/segment/4000000006023/cache" -X POST -d ‘{“cache_name”:“City”,“cache_value”:“London”}’ -H “CATALYST-ORG: 15090237” -H “Environment:Development” -H “Content-Type:application/json” -H “Authorization: Zoho-oauthtoken 1000.910*************************16.2f*************************57"”


Response Format

Overview

All Catalyst API responses will be in the JSON format. The response is sent after a request is processed by the Catalyst server.

A typical response contains the status of the request processing, which can be success or failure, and a set of data based on the request made. For example, if the request was made to delete a record in a resource, the data will contain the details of the record that was deleted. The response details of each API are specified in its help page in detail.

If the request was not processed successfully, the response will contain an appropriate error code to specify the error that occurred. The next section contains the error codes recognized by Catalyst and their descriptions.

OAuth 2.0 Authentication

Overview

OAuth 2.0 is an industry-standard protocol for authentication and authorization. The framework enables a host of third-party client applications to gain secure and delegated access to protected resources in Zoho through APIs.

Some common characteristics of OAuth 2.0 are:

  • Clients are not required to support password authentication or store user credentials. API calls can be made to access resources without having to provide user credentials for each call.
  • Clients will only have access to resources authenticated by the user.
  • Users can revoke the client’s delegated access at any time.
  • OAuth2.0 access tokens expire after a set time, which provides strong security.

Terminology

Before you learn about the steps involved in implementing OAuth 2.0, you must understand the following terms related to OAuth 2.0 in the Catalyst context:


Key Words Description
Protected Resource A Catalyst resource such as Cache, Cron, Table, or Folder
Resource Server The Catalyst server that hosts the Catalyst protected resources
Client An application that sends requests to the resource server to access the protected resources on behalf of the end-user
client_id The unique key generated for a registered client
client_secret The secret value generated for a specific registered client's client_id. When you register your Catalyst application in the Zoho API Console, a client_id and client_secret will be generated for it.
Authentication Server The Catalyst authorization server that provides the necessary credentials to a client, such as the access_tokenor refresh_token
Grant Token or code Catalyst authorization server generates a temporary token and sends it to the client via the browser. The client will send this code back to the authorization server to obtain the access and refresh tokens.
access_token A temporary token that is sent to the resource server to access the protected resources of the user. Clients use the access_token to make requests to the associated application using the APIs. Each access_token will be valid for a set time period and can only be used to perform operations described in the scope.
refresh_token A token that can be used to obtain new access tokens. This token has an unlimited lifetime until it is revoked by the end-user.
Scopes Scopes control the type of resources that the client application can access. Each token is usually created with selected scopes for better security. For example, you can generate an access_token with a scope to only read the data in the Data Store or File Store.The standard format to define a scope is scope=service_name.scope_name.operation_type. The next section lists the scopes available in Catalyst.

List of Scopes Available in Catalyst

Step 1: Register a New Client

Register the Client

The first step towards obtaining an OAuth authentication token is to register your application with Zoho’s API console and obtain your client_id and client_secret.

  1. To register your application, visit the Zoho API Console and click Get Started.

  2. Select a client type for your application.

    You can refer to Zoho’s OAuth documentation for more details.

Note: You can choose the Self Client type to test the client-server handling for your application, or if your application does not have a domain. You need not provide any details for this type. You can only create one Self Client client for your user account.
  1. Provide the required details to register your application for the client type you chose.

    • Client Name: The name of your application you want to register with Zoho
    • Homepage URL: The URL of your client’s homepage
    • Authorized Redirect URIs: A valid URL of your application that Zoho Accounts redirects you to with the grant token after a successful authentication
  2. Click Create.

After the registration is successful, Zoho will provide you a set of OAuth 2.0 credentials: the client_id and client_secret, which are known to both Zoho and your application.


Note: You must not share the client_id and client_secret anywhere. Ensure that you keep these credentials safe.

Enable Multi DC for the Client

As mentioned in the Multi-DC Support section, you can enable multi-DC support for your client from the Settings tab in the API console after you register it. This is available for all client types, except the Self Client type as it is used only for testing.

This feature lets you provide access to your application to users of a specific domain alone. As mentioned earlier, Catalyst is currently available in the EU, AU, IN, and CA domains. So you can enable or disable access to your application for specific DC users if you need.

To access the multi-DC configurations for your client:

  1. Open your client from the API console and click Settings.

  2. Enable or disable the client access for the data centers you need. You can only avail the data centers that Catalyst supports.

When you enable a DC, the console will generate a different client_secret for them by default. You can access it by clicking Show Code for the respective DC. The client_id will remain the same for all DCs.

You can choose to have the same client_secret for all DCs by checking the Use the same OAuth credentials for all data centers checkbox. You must then click OK in the confirmation pop-up.

You can again unselect the checkbox to have a different client_secret, and confirm the action similarly.


Step 2: Generate Grant Token

After you generate the client_id and client_secret, you must generate a Grant Token or code for your application.

Note: Generating a Grant Token is a one-time process, provided you generate the access_token and refresh_token within the time the Grant Token is valid for.

For Self Client Applications

If you previously selected the Self Client type, you must generate the Grant Token (code) in the following way:

  1. After registering your application, select Self Client from the Applications list in the API console and click Generate Code.

  2. Enter a valid scope. You can check the list of scopes available in Catalyst from this section.

  3. Choose a time duration from the dropdown list. The Grant Token generated in this step will expire after this time period.

Note: If the Grant Token is about to expire, you must generate a refresh_token before it expires, as described in the next step.
  1. Enter a description for the scope.
  2. Click Generate.

The API console will display the generated Grant Token or code value for your Self Client application.


For Other Applications

If you previously selected client types other than the Self Client type, you must generate the Grant Token using a redirect method:

  1. Send a request to the following URI with the params given below, to generate the Grant Token (code):

https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/auth?

Note: You must access the respective domains for the other data centers:

  • EU: https://accounts.zoho.eu/
  • AU: https://accounts.zoho.au/
  • IN: https://accounts.zoho.in/
  • CA: https://accounts.zohocloud.ca/

Parameter Description
scope* The scope the Grant Token is to be generated for. You can provide multiple scopes by separating them using commas. You can check the list of scopes available in Catalyst from [this section](/en/api/oauth2/scopes/#Scopes).
client_id* The Client ID that was generated during the client registration
state An opaque string that is round-tripped in the protocol, i.e., whatever value you provide here will be passed back to you
response_type* code(Provide this literal string as the value)
redirect_uri* One of the Authorized Redirect URIs you provided while registering the client in the previous step. You must not provide an unregistered redirect URI.
access_type The allowed values are offline and online. The online access_type only provides the Access Token for your application, which is valid for one hour. The offline access_type provides an Access Token as well as a Refresh Token for your application. The default value is considered to be online.
prompt Consent (Provide this literal string as the value) Prompts for user consent every time your app tries to access user credentials. If you don't specify this parameter, the user will only be prompted for credentials the first time your app requests access.

Note:

  • Fields marked with * are mandatory.

  • You can pass the parameters in the body of your request as form-data, for increased security.

Request Example

    
copy

  1. If you send the prompt parameter in this request, a user consent page will open.
    After you click Accept, Zoho will redirect you to the redirect_uri with the Grant Token in the code parameter. Save the code value for the next steps.

    Based on your login details, the system automatically detects your domain and uses the domain-specific authentication URL to generate the Grant Token. The state parameter is also passed in the URL.
    If you click Reject, the browser redirects to the redirect URI with the parameter error=access_denied.
Note: This code is only valid for 60 seconds. You must complete the next step within this time.

Step 3: Generate Access Token and Refresh Token

Request Execution

After you obtain the Grant Token, send a POST request to the following URL with the params given below to generate the access_token:

https://accounts.zoho.com/oauth/v2/token?

Note: You must access the respective domains for the other data centers:

  • EU: https://accounts.zoho.eu/
  • AU: https://accounts.zoho.au/
  • IN: https://accounts.zoho.in/
  • CA: https://accounts.zohocloud.ca/

Parameter Description
code* The Grant Token or the value of code obtained in the previous step.
client_id* The Client ID that was generated during the client registration
client_secret* The Client Secret that was generated during the client registration
grant_type* authorization_code (Provide this literal string as the value)
redirect_uri One of the Authorized Redirect URIs you provided while registering the client in the previous step. You must not provide an unregistered redirect URI.
scope The scope the access_token is to be generated for. You can provide multiple scopes by separating them using commas.
You can check the list of scopes available in Catalyst from [this section](/en/api/oauth2/scopes/).
state An opaque string that is round-tripped in the protocol. In other words, whatever value you provide here will be passed back to you.

Note:

  • Fields marked with * are mandatory.
  • You can pass the parameters in the body of your request as form-data, for increased security.
  • The access_token will expire after the time period (in seconds) mentioned in the expires_in parameter.
  • However, the refresh_token is permanent and can be used to regenerate a new access_token if the current one expires.
  • You can use the domain specified in api_domain in your requests to make API calls to Catalyst.
  • The “Bearer” value in the token_type indicates this is an access_token.

This completes the authentication process. Once you obtain the access_token for your application, you can use it in the authorization header of your HTTP requests to access Catalyst APIs. You can refer to the Request Format section for an example.

Note: Each time a re-consent page is accepted, a new refresh_token is generated. You can generate a maximum of 20 refresh tokens per user, and 5 refresh tokens in a minute. If this limit is crossed, the first refresh_token is automatically deleted to accommodate the latest one. This is done irrespective of whether the first one is in use or not.

Functions

Catalyst Functions enable you to build custom functionalities in your application, and seamlessly integrate it with other Catalyst components to provide a powerful backend for it. You can automate tasks, perform memory-intensive computations, or integrate with third-party services using functions.

Catalyst offers support to develop server-side functions in Java, Node.js and Python programming environments.

Note: You can create six types of functions in Catalyst: Basic I/O, Advanced I/O, Cron, Event, Integration, and Browser Logic functions. However, you can only execute Basic I/O functions using this API.

Execute a Function

Description

This API enables you to execute a Basic I/O function by referring to its unique function ID. Basic I/O functions are used to perform basic input and output operations, computations, and simple HTTP operations.

Input parameters can passed to the function in the API request either as a query string or in the request body. A query string is preferred over the request body to pass the function parameters in. The response will contain the function output.

Note: The function must already be available in the remote console. You can create a function in the console directly, or create it in your local system and deploy it to the console.

Get All Rows In a Table

Description

This API enables you to fetch all the rows from a particular table in the Data Store. You can refer to the table by its ID or name. The API incorporates pagination for fetching all rows. Pagination allows you to retrieve the records in pages through an iteration of API calls.

For example, if you require the rows to be fetched in batches of 100 as individual pages, you must include a max_rows parameter in your request, that specifies the maximum rows to be fetched in each page as 100.

Additionally, every API response will contain a token that you can pass in the next API call, to fetch the next page of rows. This token authorizes the subsequent fetching of data. You must pass the token string obtained in the response of the previous API call through the next_token parameter in the request. You need not pass the next_token parameter for the first API call. You can execute an API call for each iteration in this manner and fetch all rows in pages.

Truncate a Table

Description

This API enables you to truncate a specific table in the Data Store, by referring to the table’s unique ID or name.

The truncate operation deletes all the records in the table, while retaining its schema. The columns of the table and the table’s metadata will still be available, after the operation has ended.

You will receive notifications in your Catalyst console about the updates of the operation.

Bulk Read Records

The Bulk Read operation can read thousands of records from a specific table in the Data Store and generate a CSV file containing the results of the read operation, if the job is successful. This data-intense operation can be performed in a single API execution.

Catalyst supports three APIs for the bulk read operation: a Create Bulk Read API, a Check Bulk Read Status API to check the status of the job execution manually, and a Download Bulk Read Result API to download the results. You can also configure a callback URL to enable the automatic posting of the job status responses in it.

Note: You can also perform Bulk Read operation using the Catalyst CLI. Refer to Data Store Import and Export CLI documentation.

Create a Bulk Read Job

Description

This API triggers the bulk read operation to obtain the records from the table in the Data Store, that match the criteria you specify in the input JSON. The table is referred to using its unique table ID or the table name.

Scope

ZohoCatalyst.tables.bulk.READ

Request JSON Properties

The input for the Bulk Read API request must be sent in a JSON format. The request parameters are explained below.

table_identifier string
mandatory
The unique ID of the table or the table name. You can obtain the table ID from Data Store or from the URL when the table is opened in the console.
query json
optional

The section where you can define the conditions and criteria for the bulk read job

page numerical
optional

The CSV file generated as the result of the bulk read process contains two hundred thousand/two lakh records in one page.

Page value ‘1’ indicates that the first two lakh records matching your query will get exported. You can fetch subsequent records by increasing the page value.

For example, if you want to fetch records from the range 2,00,001 to 4,00,000, then you must specify the page value as ‘2’.

Default value: 1


select_columns array
optional

Specific columns in the records that need to be fetched from the table. If you do not specify the columns, all columns will be selected and fetched.


You can include multiple columns in an array. Refer to the sample request code window.


criteria json
optional

A set of conditions based on which the records will be fetched

group_operator string
mandatory (if specifying criteria)

The operator that will bind the criteria groups together.


Supported Operators: AND, OR


If you define two or more criteria groups, you can use the AND or the OR operator in your request. For example, you can specify a criteria like “column1 equal value 1 AND column2 contains value 2” in the format specified in the previous section.


Note: You will not be able to use combinations of both the operators in a single API request. You can either use AND or OR in one request.

group json
mandatory (if specifying criteria)

You can include upto 25 criteria sets in this section. The example shows 3 criteria sets.


Note: You can include only one overall group with one group operator in a single API request.
column_name string
mandatory (if specifying criteria)
Name of the specific column from the table that the criteria should be defined for

comparator string
mandatory (if specifying criteria)

The comparison operator that matches the column name with the criteria value


Supported Comparators: equal, not_equal, greater_than, greater_equal, less_than, less_equal, starts_with, ends_with, contains, not_contains, in, not_in, between, not_between


Note:

  • You can specify multiple values for in and not_in comparators, separated by commas.

  • Catalyst supports only the equal comparator for an encrypted column. You will not be able to use other comparators as the criteria for an encrypted column.


value string
mandatory (if specifying criteria)
The value for the specific column in the record that you require to be defined as a criteria

callback json
optional

The section where you can define the properties of the callback URL, where automatic JSON responses of the job statuses will be sent to

url string
mandatory (if specifying callback)

The URL where the automatic responses will be sent to using the HTTP POST method, each time the job status changes. Information about the job details will be contained in the body of the JSON response.


If you don’t configure a callback URL, you must manually check the status of the job processing when you need, using the Check Bulk Read Status API.


headers string
optional

Headers that you require to be passed in the JSON response to the callback URL.


You must specify the headers as:
{
"{header_name_1}" : “{header_value_1}”,
"{header_name_2}" : “{header_value_2}”
}


and so on. Refer to the sample request code.


params string
optional

Parameters that you require to be require to be appended to the callback URL


You must specify the parameters as:
{
"{param_name_1}" : “{param_value_1}”,
"{param_name_2}" : “{param_value_2}”
}


and so on. Refer to the sample request code.


Response Details

There are three job processing states which will generate three different responses:

  • In-Progress: When you execute the API, Catalyst will immediately and automatically send you a response indicating that the job execution in progress. If you have configured a callback URL in the request, the response will also be posted to the URL in the format defined by you.

    The response will contain a job_id parameter which you can use to check the status of the job execution for subsequent responses, if you have not configured a callback URL.

  • Success: The success state response will contain a download URL, where you can download a CSV file that contains the records matching your query. If you have not configured a callback URL, this response will not be sent by Catalyst automatically.

  • Failed: The failed state response will contain a description of the error occurred and the details. If you have not configured a callback URL, this response will not be sent by Catalyst automatically.

Download Bulk Read Result

Description

You can execute this API to download the result of a successful bulk read job that you initiated. This URL will also be sent in JSON response for the success state.

The downloaded CSV result file will contain a list of all the records matching your bulk read job query.

Note: The download URL will be valid for 1 day since its generation. The link will expire after that time period, and you will not be able to obtain the CSV result file containing the job details.

Bulk Write Records

The Bulk Write operation can fetch thousands of records from a CSV file uploaded in the File Store and insert them in a specific table in the Data Store. This data intense operation can be performed in a single API execution.

After the bulk write operation has executed successfully, a CSV report file containing the details of the job execution will be generated at a download URL.

Catalyst supports three APIs for the bulk write operation: a Create Bulk Write API, a Check Bulk Write Status API to check the status of the job execution manually, and a Download Bulk Write Result API to download the results. You can also configure a callback URL to enable automatic posting of the job status responses in it.

Note: You can also perform Bulk Write operation using the Catalyst CLI. Refer to Data Store Import and Export CLI documentation.

Create a Bulk Write Job

Description

This API triggers the bulk write operation to obtain the records from a CSV file in the File Store and export them to a table in the Data Store, based on the criteria you specify in the input JSON. The CSV file is referred to using its File ID in the File Store, and the table is referred to using its unique table ID or the table name.

Note:

  • You must upload the CSV file containing the data in the File Store, before you begin executing this operation.

  • The CSV file’s first row must be the header row i.e., the column names must be present as the header row.

  • The CSV file must contain data in the format that adheres to CSV file standards. If the file is not in the standard format, the data written to the table might be corrupted.

  • You can insert 5000 records in each table per project in the development environment using this API. If the CSV file contains records more than that, the first 5000 records will be written to the table. The others will be skipped in the development environment. There are no table limits for insertion in the production environment. However, the Bulk Write API can insert upto 100000 records in a single API call from a CSV file even in the production environment. If you require more records to be written, you can do so in batches of 100000 records by sending multiple Bulk Write API requests accordingly.

There are three operations that can be performed using this API:

  • Insert: Inserts new rows of data into the table from the CSV file
  • Update: Updates existing rows of data in the table. The records are identified either using a unique column in the table, or using their ROWIDs generated in the Data Store.
  • Upsert: Enables both insert and update operations at the same time. If the record already exists, the row is updated. If the record does not exist, a new row with the data is inserted.

Request Details

Request URL

The DC-specific domain to access Catalyst API

project_id

The unique ID of the project

Request Headers

Optional Headers

CATALYST-ORG: {org_id}

Environment: Development

Scope

ZohoCatalyst.tables.bulk.CREATE

Request JSON Properties

The input for the Bulk Write API request must be sent in a JSON format. The request parameters are explained below.

table_identifier string
mandatory
The unique ID of the table or the table name. You can obtain the table ID from Data Store or from the URL when the table is opened in the console.
operation string
optional

Specifies the operation to be executed using the API.

Allowed values: insert, update, upsert

Default operation: insert

file_id numerical
mandatory
The unique ID of the CSV file in the File Store which contains the records to be written.
find_by string
mandatory (update, upsert), optional (insert)

The unique column using which the records are identified.

For example, if you specify a unique column called ‘EmployeeID’ as the find_by value, Catalyst will search the records in the Data Store table using the EmployeeID value. For the update operation, Catalyst will update the rows that match the EmployeeID from the CSV file. For the upsert operation, Catalyst will update existing rows, and insert new rows if there are no records with matching EmployeeID values.

Update: This can be a column with unique values as configured in the Data Store, or the ROWID generated by Catalyst for the records.

Upsert: You can only specify a column with unique values as configured in the Data Store. You will not be able to specify the ROWID as the find_by value. This is because, upsert will insert new rows if matching ones are not found, and the ROWID values will not be available for rows not existing in the Data Store.

Insert: If you specify a find_by column for an insert operation, any records matching the column values from the CSV file will be skipped and not inserted into the Data Store table. This is because, insert cannot update if a given record already exists.

fk_mapping json
optional

Foreign key mapping for the columns that are primary keys in other tables. This is specified if any columns imported from the CSV file should be configured as foreign keys.

You must map foreign keys in the following format:
{
“local_column” : “local_column_name_1”,
“reference_column” : “reference_column_name_1”
}

where local_column is the name of the column in the table where the bulk write operation is processed, and reference_column is the name of the column in the table in which it is a primary key.

Refer to the sample request code.

callback json
optional

The section where you can define the properties of the callback URL, where automatic JSON responses of the job statuses will be sent to

url string
mandatory (if specifying callback)

The URL where the automatic responses will be sent to using the HTTP POST method, each time the job status changes. Information about the job details will be contained in the body of the JSON response.

If you don’t configure a callback URL, you must manually check the status of the job processing when you need, using the Check Bulk Write Status API.


headers string
optional

Headers that you require to be passed in the JSON response to the callback URL

You must specify the headers as:
{
"{header_name_1}" : “{header_value_1}”,
"{header_name_2}" : “{header_value_2}”
}

and so on. Refer to the sample request code.


params string
optional

Parameters that you require to be require to be appended to the callback URL

You must specify the parameters as:
{
"{param_name_1}" : “{param_value_1}”,
"{param_name_2}" : “{param_value_2}”
}

and so on. Refer to the sample request code.


Response Details

There are three job processing states which will generate three different responses:

  • In-Progress: When you execute the API, Catalyst will immediately and automatically send you a response indicating that the job execution in progress. If you have configured a callback URL in the request, the response will also be posted to the URL in the format defined by you.

    The response will contain a job_id parameter which you can use to check the status of the job execution for subsequent responses, if you have not configured a callback URL.

  • Success: The success state response will contain a download URL, where you can download a CSV report file that contains the details of the job execution. It will list all the records that were skipped from being written along with the reasons. If you have not configured a callback URL, this response will not be sent by Catalyst automatically.

  • Failed: The failed state response will contain a description of the error occurred and the details. If you have not configured a callback URL, this response will not be sent by Catalyst automatically.

Get the Details of Multiple Files

Description

This API enables you to retrieve the details of multiple files in a particular folder in the File Store. The folder is referred by its unique Folder ID.

This API request can retrieve the details of a maximum number of 200 files in the folder in one call. Therefore, if a folder has 300 files, you can execute a second API call to retrieve the details of files 201 to 300. This can be done by specifying the start and end values in the query params in the request as depicted below. The first 200 files are retrieved by default, if the query params are not specified.

Cache

Catalyst Cache is a small in-memory storage component that enables you to store data that is frequently accessed by your Catalyst application.

Catalyst cache is divided into partitions or cache units called segments. Each segment stores cache items in the form of key-value pairs.

Insert a Key-Value Pair In a Cache Segment

Description

This API enables you to insert a key-value pair as the cache item in a cache segment. The segment is referred by its unique ID. The key represents the attribute and the value is the data of the cache item.

copy

{ “column1_name”: “column1_value”, “column2_name”: “column2_value”, “column3_name”: “column3_value” }

where column_name is a key in the dataset required for predicting the target, and column_value is the data you provide for the corresponding column.


Note:

  • If you enter a value in a format that does not match the data type of the column, such as a numerical value for the date type, the value will not be parsed. Ensure that you provide the data in the right format.

  • You must provide the value for atleast one valid column while testing the prediction.

  • If you don’t enter the value for an input field, a default value will be entered for the column by Zia automatically. However, this will affect the accuracy of the prediction.

Response Details

The response returns the data of the OCR processing, which includes the text that was recognized from the input in the text key and the confidence score of the recognition in the confidence key.

Face Analytics

Zia Face Analytics performs facial detection in images, and analyzes the facial features to provide information such as the gender, age, and emotion of the detected faces.

Face Analytics also provides the confidence levels of each attribute prediction that enables you to make informed decisions. It can detect up to 10 faces in an image, and it provides predictions of the attributes for each detected face.

Execute Face Analytics

Description

You can use this API to perform facial detection and analytics in an image file, and specify the path to it in the API request as shown in the sample request.

You can optionally specify an analysis mode which determines the number of facial landmarks to be detected in a face. You can also enable or disable the attributes to be predicted, such as the emotion, age, and gender.

Identity Scanner

Identity Scanner is a Zia AI-driven component that enables you to perform secure identity checks on individuals and documents by scanning and processing various ID proofs or official documents. It is a comprehensive suite that incorporates multiple functionalities divided into two major categories- E-KYC and Document Processing.

Note: Catalyst does not store any of the files you upload in its systems. The documents you upload are used for one-time processing only. They are not used for ML model training purposes either. Catalyst components are fully compliant with all applicable data protection and privacy laws.

Facial Comparison

Facial Comparison, also known as E-KYC, is a part of Identity Scanner that compares two faces in two different images to determine if they are the same individual.

Note: While the Document Processing feature of Identity Scanner is only relevant to Indian users, the Facial Comparison API and SDK tools are available to a global audience. However, accessing and testing Facial Comparison or E-KYC from the Catalyst console is restricted to the users from IN DC alone.

Process Facial Comparison

Description

This API enables you to perform a face comparison between a source image and a query image. You must specify the paths to both the image files in the API request, as shown in the sample request.

Note: You can mark either the ID proof image or the individual’s photograph as the source or the query image. This will not affect the results.

Named Entity Recognition

Zia Named Entity Recognition is a part of Text Analytics that processes textual content to extract key words and group them into various categorizes. For example, it can determine a word in a text to be the name of an organization, the name of a person, or a date, and add it to the appropriate category accordingly. Refer here for a list of all categories recognized by NER.

The response will return the details of all recognized entities, and a tag indicating the category they belong to. It will also contain the confidence score of each recognition to showcase its accuracy, and the locations of the entity in the text.

Keyword Extraction

Zia Keyword Extraction is a part of Text Analytics that processes textual content and extracts the highlights of the text. The extracted terms are grouped into two categories: Keywords and Keyphrases. These highlights deliver a concise summary of the text and provide an abstraction of the whole text.

Keyword Extraction is a highly useful feature if you want to skim through long textual content and just obtain the essential information and action items from it. You will be able to identify the subject matter and the gist of the text easily from the response, and save valuable time.
