The Zoho People integration provides access to manage Zoho People forms, employees, attendance, leave requests, and time tracking through the Integrate MCP server.

## Installation

The Zoho People integration is included with the SDK:

```typescript
import { zohoPeopleIntegration } from "integrate-sdk/server";
```

## Setup

### 1. Create a Zoho People OAuth App

1. Go to [Zoho API Console](https://api-console.zoho.com)
2. Create a new OAuth application
3. Configure your redirect URI
4. Note your Client ID and Client Secret

### 2. Configure the Integration on Your Server

Add the Zoho People integration to your server configuration. The integration automatically reads `ZOHO_PEOPLE_CLIENT_ID` and `ZOHO_PEOPLE_CLIENT_SECRET` from your environment variables:

```typescript
import { createMCPServer, zohoPeopleIntegration } from "integrate-sdk/server";

export const { client: serverClient } = createMCPServer({
  apiKey: process.env.INTEGRATE_API_KEY,
  integrations: [
    zohoPeopleIntegration({
      scopes: ["ZohoPeople.forms.ALL", "ZohoPeople.employee.ALL", "ZohoPeople.leave.ALL", "ZohoPeople.attendance.ALL"], // Optional
    }),
  ],
});
```

You can override the environment variables by passing explicit values:

```typescript
zohoPeopleIntegration({
  clientId: process.env.CUSTOM_ZOHO_PEOPLE_ID,
  clientSecret: process.env.CUSTOM_ZOHO_PEOPLE_SECRET,
      scopes: ["ZohoPeople.forms.ALL", "ZohoPeople.employee.ALL", "ZohoPeople.leave.ALL", "ZohoPeople.attendance.ALL"], // Optional
});
```

### 3. Client-Side Usage

The default client automatically includes all integrations. You can use it directly:

```typescript
import { client } from "integrate-sdk";

await client.authorize("zoho_people");
const result = await client.zoho_people.listForms({});

console.log(result);
```

If you're using a custom client, add the integration to the integrations array:

```typescript
import { createMCPClient, zohoPeopleIntegration } from "integrate-sdk";

const customClient = createMCPClient({
  integrations: [zohoPeopleIntegration()],
});
```
