 * Hi,
 * Just started using the plugin but getting errors on submission:
    `[{"code":"INVALID_DATA","
   details":{"expected_data_type":"bigint","api_name":"Contact_Name"},"message":"
   invalid data","status":"error"}]`
 * We tried using a custom value for Contact_Name in stead of standard field but
   no luck.
 * Found this topic on zoho website: [https://help.zoho.com/portal/community/topic/custom-function-22-automatically-update-field-details-from-contacts-in-deals](https://help.zoho.com/portal/community/topic/custom-function-22-automatically-update-field-details-from-contacts-in-deals)
 * > At the moment, the only way to do this, is to fetch the Contact ID and then
   > pass it.
 * Is there a solution?
 * Thanks.

 * Contact_Name is a lookup field , it accepts Contact_ID only.
    in pro version 
   you can assign one Object(Contact etc) to other Object (Lead etc)

 * Ok, thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I’m wondering, how does the free
   plugin work if you cannot submit a contact’s name?

 * You can enter “Contact_ID” in Contact Lookup field
    which object you want to 
   create in zoho ? Contact field is not available in Zoho Leads , Accounts , Contacts

 * Ok, my client has purchased and installed the pro version. He wants to create
   a ‘potentials’ object but Contact_ID still isn’t in the select dropdown so it’s
   not clear how to add it anyway.
