A Connection in Zoho Flow is a saved authentication link between Zoho Flow and a specific application account. Once you create a Connection for, say, your Mailchimp account, all flows involving Mailchimp can reuse that Connection without re-entering credentials. Connections are shared across flows within the same Zoho Flow organisation.
Create connections by navigating to the Connections section in Zoho Flow and authenticating with your third-party app account (typically via OAuth for modern apps, or API key for simpler ones). The Connection stores the access credentials securely and renews OAuth tokens automatically.
If a Connection expires or its credentials are revoked, all flows using that Connection will fail. Monitor connection health in Zoho Flow’s dashboard. When a team member who created a Connection leaves the organisation, transfer their connections to another account owner before offboarding to prevent unexpected flow failures.
