Hi everybody,

can somebody please tell me how to connect monday.com API with Postman.

It´s my first use of an API.


On Post-Method i´ve used the URL: “https://api.monday.com/v2/

For the “Authorization” Tab i´ve used the Type “Bearer Token” and the Token given in the Admin Section of Monday.

In the “Headers” Tab i´ve used the Keys “Content-Type” and “Authorization”

For the “Body” Tab i´ve used “GraphQL” and the example of monday like this:


query {


boards {


items {


id


}


}


}


Can somebody please tell me what i made wrong or where i made a mistake and help me to run the API?


Best Regards, Michael

Hey @DeRpa,


Can you explain a bit more about the error you’re getting?


When I use Postman I usually format the request body as raw JSON, so I can better understand what request is being made:


As for the authorization, try this:


Hope that helps!


Hi @dipro,


Thank you for your quick response.

the error is “Could not send request” and “unable to get local issuer certificate”.

Now i have the body and authorization Tabs as you did but there is still the same error.

Can you please help me?

Hey @DeRpa,


Strange, I’ve never seen that before. It might be an issue with your Postman configuration.


From a brief Google I found these resources, I hope they get you on the right track:



Do let me know if that helps!


Hey @dipro,


yes, thats very strange. One of my colleagues can normally use it.

But he uses “OAuth 2.0” for Authorization-Type and on the Headers he gets a Cookie. So he had 10 Headers. So it is all fine.

The issue for me is that I can´t get a cookie at Postman and only get 9 Headers.

So I think my colleague can help me.


Thank you for your support.

Best Regards!
