Hello. I wanted to look into developing an app based on the ideas board. Two of the ideas mention writing a Search and Replace app for boards and workdocs. I’ve also noticed that Monday.com already has a very powerful search facility that seems like an ideal starting point for doing a search and replace app.


Ideally there would be a way to extend the search facility, so I turned on the Chrome web developers tools to see what’s happening under the hood when we do a search on Monday.com. When it does a search it makes an XHR request of the form monday.com/search/cross_board?q=item.


This search endpoint is not officially mentioned on the API or SDK. My questions are:



  • Can we make use of an undocumented endpoint like the one mentioned above?

  • Will there be plans to extend the API to allow for a general search?

  • If no to the above questions, can I be cheeky and ask for the graphql and js code that is used to make the search facility work

Hello there @danielball and welcome to the community!


I hope you like it here 💪


Regarding your questions:



  1. The endpoint should not be used

  2. There are no such plans right now

  3. I checked with the team and we can not share that publicly


You can create a request here!


Let me know if you have any other questions!


Cheers,

Matias
