Zoho Flow Update: Perform Third-Party App Actions Automatically

Zoho Flow Update: Perform Third-Party App Actions Automatically

Hello everyone!  

Greetings,

Hope you’re doing well. Today, PFC Group is happy to share a helpful update in Zoho Bigin that will make your automation work even smoother.

Zoho Flow Actions are now available inside Bigin  

This means you can now connect Bigin with many other apps and automate tasks in those apps—directly from your workflow and stage automation rules.
No coding needed.

What is Zoho Flow?  

Zoho Flow is a simple, no-code platform that connects different cloud apps.
It helps you automatically send data or trigger actions in other apps—for example:

  • Send a message to a team

  • Create a new record in another app

  • Notify the team when something changes in Bigin

All of this can now happen automatically when your automation runs in Bigin.

Where to find it  

The menus have been reorganized for clarity:

Setup > Automation > Automation Rules

Here, you will now see:

  • Workflow

  • Stage Automation

  • Zoho Flow Actions (new)

Updated Automation Permissions  

Permissions are now split into clear parts so users have better control:

Permission

What it means

Manage Automation

Full rights to create and edit workflows and automation rules

Manage Flow Connection

Can edit or delete connections made by other users

Access Flow Connection

Can create and use only their own connections; cannot modify others’

Note:
If Manage Flow Connection is turned ON, Access Flow Connection turns ON automatically.
You can also enable only Access Flow Connection if needed.

These permissions are enabled by default for Administrator and Standard profiles.



Credits and Billing  

Each time a Flow Action runs successfully, it uses 1 credit.

Here’s how credit usage works:

  • 100 free credits per month for every account

  • After free credits are used, extra usage will be billed

  • Admins can set a monthly credit limit to control spend

For example:
If your limit is 20,000 credits but you use only 10,000, you pay only for 10,000.

You can check credit usage anytime in the store.

You can purchase up to 500,000 credits. For more, contact support.

Availability  

  • Available only for paid Bigin editions.

  • For more details, check the official help document.

That’s all for now!  

We hope you find this update useful and easy to use. Try it out and share your feedback with us.

Stay tuned to PFC Group’s updates page for more helpful announcements.

With these changes, your asset’s history becomes richer, more accurate, and more useful.
