Manage Zoho Projects portals, projects, tasks, task lists, milestones, issues and time logs.
Zoho Projects ships in the w6w first-party pack. It declares 34 actions, 2 health checks, and the host runs its code in a sandbox that never sees the credential.
io.w6w.zoho-projectsZoho Projects puts project management into a workflow: list portals, users and projects, create, update, trash and restore projects, manage task lists, tasks, milestones and issues (bugs), and read, log and edit time.
It uses the current V3 API (/api/v3). Zoho hosts every account in one of eleven regional data centres, each with its own sign-in endpoint and API host, so this app routes each region through its own dedicated connection rather than one that could send a request to the wrong region.
Filters, bulk operations, comments, attachments, dependencies, custom fields, forums, documents, users administration, templates and automation are deliberately left out.
Three routes to the same 34 actions. The Workflow tab is generated from Zoho Projects's own manifest and carries its real ids, so it is copy-pasteable; the Code and CLI examples are the same call for any action on any app, so every app-specific value in them is a blank you fill in.
issue-list List the issues (bugs) of a project. The vendor requires page and per_page, so they default to 1 and 100.
milestone-create Create a milestone (phase) in a project. The vendor requires an owner and a status.
portal-list List the portals (organisations) the connected user can access. Portal IDs feed every other action.
project-create Create a project in a portal. Optionally copy the configuration of a template or existing project.
project-update Update a project's name, description, owner, dates, visibility or status.
task-create Create a task (or a subtask when a parent task is given). With no task list the general task list is used.
task-update Update a task's name, description, status, priority, dates, completion or billing type.
timelog-list List the time logs of a project for a day, week, month, custom date range or the whole project span.
user-list List the users of a portal. Filter by user type (users, client users, contacts, resources) and active/inactive.
A workflow step names the app and the action, and the editor fills in the
connection when you pick one. This is the Step shape from the
workflow spec, carrying Zoho Projects's real ids.

Every app-specific value here is a blank you have to fill in. An
app action is reached through the connection that authenticates it, so the
address is a connection id, not the app id — and connections belong to your account,
so a public page cannot know yours. Create one for Zoho Projects, then fill in
the three blanks: conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID, the action key, and the
parameters that action declares. The call itself is real — the shape is transcribed
from the studio's own snippet builder, which prints the same kind of blanks — but
nothing in it is specific to Zoho Projects. The Workflow tab is where this app's
real ids are.

One MCP endpoint exposes every app, function and workflow the caller is entitled to, as tools it can discover and run. Access is granted per team while we onboard.
One tool call{
"name": "w6w_invoke",
"arguments": {
"ref": "app:io.w6w.zoho-projects#issue-create",
"input": {
"portalId": "<portalId>",
"projectId": "<projectId>",
"name": "<name>"
}
}
}
Every tool names its target with a single ref. The
app: form above doesn't name a connection at all — the
host resolves which of the caller's Zoho Projects connections to sign
with, and refuses rather than guesses when the answer is ambiguous.
The token is attached host-side, at the moment of the call. It is never a tool argument, never in the model's context, and never in a transcript — so a prompt injection has nothing to exfiltrate.
Tools are derived per end user from what that person has actually connected and is entitled to — not one shared bot identity carrying the union of everyone's access.
Multi-step work runs on the workflow engine and returns a run handle the agent can poll — retries, branching and state survive the conversation that started them.
Zoho Projects's declared health checks are on the surface too, so an agent can tell "the vendor is down" from "your credential expired" before it burns a retry on either.
The MCP surface is part of the hosted platform. Zoho Projects itself is MIT, and the runtime that executes it is source-available (FSL).
Zoho Projects declares its own checks, so its health is a property of the app rather than something the host guesses at.
