Hi!


I’m quite new to developing with monday API and I run into the following case:

How is it possible, to read all status or tags, that can be set in a column?


Explanation: I want to to a mutation, which sets a specific status. Therefore I need to know the ID of the status. Is there any way to retrieve this information for all status at once?


As for tags: I got all global tags, that are available in my monday, but not all of them can be used in my column. How can I get only those, that can be used in my column? We don’t use board tags.


Best regards

Anke

Hello there @AnkeAS and welcome to the community!


I hope you like it here 💪


Regarding statuses, you can use something like this to get the labels and indexes:


{
boards(ids: 1234567890) {
columns(ids: "status") {
settings_str
}
}
}

Regarding the tags, in which scenario are you not being able to use an existing tag in a board?


Looking forward to hearing from you!


Cheers,

Matias


Hi!


Thank you very much! I will try this 🙂


These are some example tags, which I got with the following query

grafik

tags {

id

name

}


But I can’t user i.e. “Caravan12024” in my Board:

grafik


Therefore I would like to only get the tags, which are available to me.


But when I use tags in boards (I erased the id for the screenshot), I don’t get any:

grafik

Hello again @AnkeAS,


What happens if you try adding that tag to that board via a mutation, using the tag’s ID?


Hi!


First again thanks for the status-snippet: this works 🙂


And I tried the mutation with the id for "Caravan12024’.

I don’t get an error message, but afterwards the entry is just empty:

grafik

I just noticed, that it got changed… but I only see that, after switching to anoather board and back
