Zoho Expense MCP server for AI agents.

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 139 Zoho Expense actions, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Zoho Expense.

Your own Zoho Expense OAuth app, registered with Zoho Expense (its client id and client secret), and the access and refresh tokens from one admin sign-in. actionlake has no Zoho Expense app of its own, so this is not a one-step consent. actionlake renews the access token as it expires. Plus your api domain and your organization id. actionlake finds api base for you when you connect. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "zoho_expense" } lists exactly what to paste.

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 23 Zoho Expense actions are destructive, including delete an user, delete an expense and delete a customer. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Zoho Expense service file: 100 calls a minute per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (32 Zoho Expense actions can be), which never reaches Zoho Expense.

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (139 Zoho Expense actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Zoho Expense refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

The Zoho Expense API 1 at your Zoho Expense instance's API base URL, which you enter when connecting (path /expense/v1). It is built from Zoho Expense's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 139 actions in 1 area, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Yes. ask joins Zoho Expense to ConnectWise PSA or HubSpot CRM on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. Zoho Expense maps crm.company, which 227 other connectors also map.

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to an hour, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Zoho Expense credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
