| metadata.modules.create | Creates a single custom module in Recruit. Requires the Recruit_Implied_Customize_Zoho_Recruit permission. This operation is not idempotent; submitting the same api_name multiple times will result in validation errors. Only one module can be created per request; batch creation is not supported. |

The operation is idempotent - calling it multiple times with the same payload produces the same result. |
| metadata.customViews.list | Get all custom views of a module |
