Pipedream Overview
Pipedream is an integration platform that allows users to create, host, and run workflows that simplifies the process of building complex workflows to connect various APIs and web services. Pipedream has an extensive list of pre-configured actions and custom actions within workflows, enabling users to connect their Zoho Mail account with different applications.
