(or)
scope=ZohoCRM.modules.{module_name}.{operation_type}

Parameters

fieldsstring, mandatory
Specify the API name of the field whose details you want to receive in the response.
pageinteger, optional
To get the list of records from the respective pages. Default value for page is 1.
Possible values: Positive Integer values only.
per_pageinteger, optional
To get the list of records available per page. The default and the maximum possible value is 200.
Possible values: Positive Integer values only.

Note

The page and per_page parameter is used to fetch records according to their position in the CRM. Let's assume that the user has to fetch 400 records. The maximum number of records that one can get for an API call is 200. So, for records above the 200th position, they cannot be fetched. By using the page (1 and 2) and per_page (200) parameter, the user can fetch all 400 records using 2 API calls.
If the requested related list is not present or hidden in a layout, the system will return an INVALID_DATA response.
