General info: name, email, phone, owner name, and account (empty fields stay hidden).
Deals: linked to this contact.
Activities: such as tasks and calls.
Activities are listed with the newest at the top, so you’ll see the most recent updates first.

If multiple contacts are found, you’ll see potential matches listed in the Zoho widget.

If no match is found in Zoho during a call, select Create Record to add the contact.
Call logging to custom modules

Select Manage Settings > Call logging
Select Log call to custom modules

Tip
Can’t find your module? Check your Zoho CRM settings to be sure it’s configured.
Custom module field mapping
Admins can match each custom field to a value in the module field drop-down, but each value can only be used once.
Map all current call log fields so they appear in Zoho, and avoid unrelated mandatory fields that don’t apply to calls to avoid errors.
Fields with (*) are mandatory and must be mapped to a value, or your call log will not be saved.
If the field you’re selecting is greyed out, it means that it can’t be matched to that call log field.

Dialpad offers the following fields that can be mapped in Zoho V2.
