I am writing a code to make changes in monday as they change in the datbase.
I am using python, does any one have a better idea how to do this.

Thanks

Hey Rodney, welcome!

monday’s data structure is very similar to a table, so it’s quite suitable to connect to a database. Here’s some stuff to keep in mind when you’re building your connector:

API syntax – you’ll need to use our GraphQL API to update monday data when your db changes. Documentation - The basics

Scale and rate limits – There’s a limited number of changes you can make in one minute. If your DB has a lot of changes in a short period, you will need to implement some kind of queueing or limiting logic. Learn more here - Complexity
