When to use it

Small business sales leaders, customer success leads and operational teams managing pipelines in Bigin.

Example scenario

An agent monitors Bigin for stalled high-priority contacts past 60 days without activity. It cross-references prior deal notes, past purchases and open support tickets to draft a tailored check-in email. Rather than sending automatically, it presents the draft, contact timeline and suggested follow-up task to the account owner. The owner adjusts the tone and approves sending, whereupon the agent records the sent email and schedules the next milestone task in Bigin.

Getting started

  • Register a Zoho OAuth 2.0 client with required Bigin scopes (ZohoBigin.modules.ALL or granular read/write scopes)
  • Map relevant Bigin pipeline stages, custom fields and loss reason picklists to playbook properties
  • Designate authorized human approvers for relationship outreach, audit writes and partner onboarding
  • Confirm fallback workflow for manual CRM data export when API integration is unconfigured

Common questions

Does this guide require a native pre-installed Pump Up connector for Bigin?

No. Configured access uses standard Zoho OAuth 2.0 with Bigin REST APIs (v2), or operators can export Bigin deal and contact records manually for agent analysis.

Can an AI agent update Bigin deal stages or contact records autonomously?

No. The agent prepares audit findings or recommended record updates, but changes to deal stages, loss reasons or contact attributes require authorized human approval before execution.

How does Bigin handle pipeline custom fields and multiple pipelines?

Bigin REST API v2 supports metadata inspection for custom pipelines and sub-pipelines, allowing field mappings to reflect specific team stage names and loss categories.
