• Update Existing Records: Compares all Moodle users with previously stored JSON data and updates any changes in Zoho CRM.

• Logging: Maintains logs of successful syncs, errors, and transaction details.

• Secure Credentials: Stores API keys and credentials securely using a .env file.

• Automated Execution: Runs daily via a CRON job on the hosting server.
