v2
The CData Tableau Connector for Zoho CRM models Zoho CRM API v2 data as an easy-to-use SQL database. There are three parts to the data model: tables, views, and stored procedures. Any changes you make to your Zoho CRM account, such as adding a custom module, adding a custom field, or changing the data type of a field, occur immediately when you connect using the connector.
Tables
The Tables section, which details standard SQL tables, and the Views section, which lists read-only SQL tables, contain samples of what you might have access to in your Zoho CRM account.
