        FAQs

        I'm stuck on the widgets loading screen

        As the extension uses the Zoho API to perform the merges, check that the users profile has access to the Zoho API.

        Head to: Settings > Security Control > Profiles > Developer Permissions > Zoho CRM API Access.

        I don't have any merge templates

        Ensure that you have Zoho CRM Mail Merge Templates configured for the Module.

        Go to Settings > Customisation > Templates > Mail Merge

        I don't have any from emails

        The extension can only send emails from "Organisational" Emails.

        Head to: Settings > Channels > Email > Organisational Emails.

        Ensure that you have added organisational emails to your Zoho CRM account.
        I keep getting "An Error has Occurred" popup

        Open the extension settings: Settings > Marketplace > All > Auto Document Merge for Zoho CRM > Settings

        Check the Connector Status and Re-Authorise the extension connectors by clicking the green button and try merging again.
