Try these queries on your website:- “Where is my order SO-00012?” (use a real order number and the customer’s email)
- “Show me your products”
- “Do you have this in stock?”
- “What did I order last time?”
Troubleshooting
Reconnect required
Reconnect required
If you revoked BubblaV’s access from your Zoho account (or Zoho invalidated the grant), the chatbot will stop answering store questions. Click Connect again on the Zoho Commerce card to re-authorize — no data is lost.

If your Zoho account has more than one Zoho Commerce store, BubblaV connects to the first active store. Make sure the store you want connected is the active one, then reconnect.

Your Zoho account lives on a different data center (EU, India, Australia, or Japan). Start the connection again with the region parameter appended to the connect link:
&dc=eu (or in, au, jp). BubblaV then routes Zoho sign-in through your regional accounts server and automatically calls the matching store API endpoints afterwards.Security: We use OAuth 2.0 with read-only scopes (
ZohoCommerce.items.READ, ZohoCommerce.salesorders.READ, ZohoCommerce.sitesIndex.READ). Your credentials are encrypted and stored securely — BubblaV can never modify your store.
