Zoho to BigQuery historic data import

I am working on a Zoho to BigQuery integration/zap.

It seems that only new data added to Zoho following the zap’s activation can be imported.

Does anybody know how to retroactively run a zap on historic data in Zoho?

Hi @img ,

Yes, Zapier only supports the data being added after the time the Zap workflow got activated. However, you can use a “workaround” with some small manual work to get it done.

What you can do:

  • Create a Zap workflow which parses CSV data to Bigquery
  • Export whatever Zoho data you want to have in a CSV
  • Upload the CSV to a google drive folder
  • Use the Zap explained above to transfer the data to BigQuery

Hope this helps you!
