Hi, This is my first try building an integration app, and I was following quickstart-python on github, which is an integration example built with python’s flask. I set up the monday.com app configuration from the description in SETUP.md (without the part of deploying the app to monday code). After tunneling with the CLI, and running the application locally, I’m having problem with the authorization process: the auth endpoint is being called successfully, but the following flow is unsuccessful: monday_request_auth (a wrapper for the authorize function in routes/auth.py file) → JWTService.decode_monday_jwt → SecretService.get_secret(SecretKeys.MONDAY_SIGNING_SECRET) → api_instance.get_secret(key) The above is the function calls flow in the example, probably best to see the github project. The signing_secret which is the result of the last function call returns NONE. What should be updated in the code in order to have the app run locally? Thanks, Eyal

in below ui: what option should be select when publishing our app? we want anyone to be able to install but not for free. thanks.

Hi team, have you run into a problem with the Doc header AI assistant? We are trying to implement the Doc header AI assistant feature, but it is not showing up in the document. We see two Doc command AI assistants in the document, which is also not correct when we have only one defined. App features: Feature not showing in doc header: Two features displayed in the Doc toolbar, one with the wrong name: Thanks.

we are creating a product website for our app that we intend to publish on the marketplace. can we use the monday.com logo next to our app name on the website or should we be using our app icon?

we are getting ready to publish our app on the marketplace. are there any resources to help create promotional video and other design assets? what software to use etc.?

I have released an app and the version is locked now. How do I now test a new version of my app before releasing it? I hope the question is self-explanatory. I don’t want to promote the test version to live as it may have bugs and I don’t want customers to get the buggy version. Sorry if I am missing something here but I couldn’t figure it out.

I’m trying to publish a post to instagram with a post being a row/item in a Monday table. The way I’m starting the flow is by selecting my app (Board Menu Item Feature) from the item menu. Problem I’m running into is that I want to open up a modal with my app so I can go through the publishing workflow I have planned. I’m using the monday.execute(“openAppFeatureModal”, {… which is opening the modal as you can see but it also opens up the standard Monday app window beside it (behind the modal). Is there a way for me to listen to the button click and open the modal only?

Hey Monday Team! I’ve been working on a custom React App form that board members fill out and then expect a trickle down of that information to add items to multiple boards. As of recently, this custom app only works for board owners I’ve made members able to “Edit Everything” with all boxes checked and I’m still getting the following error message: There was an error in response from monday.com graphql API: [{"message":"User unauthorized to perform action"....] Is there anything else I might be missing? All help will be greatly appreciated 🙏

I’m trying to load settings into the app, specifically the board menu item feature which I know I can do using react (manifest.json) etc. but I’m wondering if there is a way to load app settings from the Monday context? This way I can allow the user to set the columns that would contain the post fields I need to post to social media (caption, image, hashtags, etc). It seems like you can do this with a Board View feature just not a board menu item feature? Example this line of code doesn’t actually load anything or even get called. monday.listen(“settings”, (res) => { console.log("Settings: ",res.data); setSettings(res.data); });

Hi All, I am wondering if monday.com has a public issue tracker where users can file bugs? i searched online but could not find it. i have run into many issues as a developer: there is no way to change the visibility of a board if i duplicate a board and then immediately start iterating over it, i get an empty collection a board_relation column type returns null for the column value (even though relation exists) in call to get_items_page no way to set value of a board_relation column the API is extremely slow. it takes seconds just to copy an item and move it from one board to another. there is no batch endpoint …

Hi, Is there any current way to get how many days a timeline item is overdue using the Monday API? Currently we are just getting how many days are between the ‘from’ and ‘updated_at’ on the Timeline documentation. However, we are noticing not all items match what it says online. Is there a way to get the number we see online when you hover over an item that is overdue? Thanks, Nathan.

hello, does monday.com have any youtube videos explaining how to release multiple tiers of my app: free version paid version with 14 day trial will there be a single marketplace listing or two independent listings for the two apps? the free version of my app won’t have premium features and so the release binary is different for the two cases. in case of 14 day trial is there any work i have to do on the backend or will monday.com automatically uninstall the app after 14 days if user does not upgrade? thanks.

I’m building an integration app using Monday Code and the JavaScript SDK. Every time I make a code change, I have to deploy a new version, which takes 3–4 minutes to push to the Monday environment. This significantly slows down the feedback loop. Is there a way I can run this locally to test my API?

Lets say I have a webhook (server-side code) that gets called in response to an event. In this webhook I now want to call the Monday API and perform some operation e.g., reading/writing to a board. How do I authenticate my request? Reading Choosing an authentication method it seems the only way is to use Method 2: Using OAuth to issue access tokens. however when i tried to implement this there are some issues i ran into which raise some doubts. First, i will need to store the oauth token on the backend. it can be done but i have never seen such pattern before where an app stores a user’s tokens in a database. The link does say: If your app needs to store a user’s API token or make API calls in the background, OAuth is a good option. Second, within an account there can be thousands of users (taking worst case). Storing thousands of tokens raises some red flags in my mind. Above point is maybe explained by following: https://support.monday.com/hc/en-us/articles/360014664060-The-m

we want to update the visibility of a board (public, share, private) but cannot find any method to do that:monday.com Platform API what gives?

can anyone tell me what is this { message: 'BoardReflectedLimitsException', locations: [ { line: 1, column: 10 } ], path: [ 'duplicate_board' ], extensions: { code: 'RecordInvalidException', status_code: 422, error_data: { error_data: 'BoardReflectedLimitsException' } } } i get this when calling Boards

I’m trying to create app that create some columns automatically. I got that working just fine by adding BOARD_ID variable in environment variables of the app. but, I want to let that app work on all Boards not just the board i have already hard coded to that variable. I tried to use: const BOARD_ID = process.env.BOARD_ID;. but no luck. any help or advise to make that working just fine? Note: the app doesn’t have front end. Just a back end using Board multi item action feature. Just by clicking it. it should create custom columns.

I need to obtain an OAuth token when a user installs my app: Apps Framework How can I do this? are there any YouTube videos explaining it? Basically when someone installs my app how can I kick off the OAuth flow? Any github examples? i have found this User onboarding but not sure if its the right link to answer this question. it says: Starting point The starting point is the feature or template that opens when a user tries to set up your app for the first time. Is this the page user sees when they open my app? that is not what i am looking for. what i am looking for is an endpoint i can provide when user installs my app. this is a one-time page they will see vs. a page that they see every time when they open my app. can someone guide me? thanks

Hi Dev Community, I’ve built a custom workflow trigger (“When Time Tracking stops…”) and action. My backend needs to activate the trigger’s specific webhookUrl (saved during subscribe) when a relevant Time Tracking column stops. To detect this change, I understand I need an app-level webhook listening for change_column_value. How and where exactly in the Developer Center do I configure this app-level webhook subscription to send events to my backend endpoint (e.g., /monday/events)? Or maybe I’m wrong and it actually happens in a different way? In conclusion - how to correctly call a custom trigger from Monday and not from another application? Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Good morning, Sir, Madam, I am building a custom monday.com application. I would like to make it mandatory to get customer oauth authorization during app install. Do you have a guide that explains it?

Hi All, I am using this code to create a column using the API: mutation{ create_column(board_id: xxx, title: "Name", description: "", column_type: name) { id title description } } but it gives me this error: { "data": { "create_column": null }, "errors": [ { "message": "This column type is not supported yet in the API", "locations": [ { "line": 1, "column": 10 } ], "path": [ "create_column" ], "extensions": { "code": "InvalidColumnTypeException", "status_code": 200, "error_data": { "column_id": null, "actual_type": "name" } } } ] } i checked over here all the column types Other types and name is listed. why is it then returning an error and what can i do to fix it?

Hello everyone, I was wandering if there is a way of querying Emails & Activities form of specific item. To be more specific I need to extract all sent emails for selected item with the information (who sent it, to whom it was sent and status if the email was read). Thanks!

Greatings developers, I’ve found from the documentation that I can create a new board using graphql using the following mutation: mutation { create_board (board_name: “my board”, board_kind: public) { id } } I have a requirement to create project board in Monday.com enterprise edition using graphql, but I cannot find any example. Has anyone succeeded with this? What mutation syntax can I use?
