API & Apps framework

Hey, There are many use cases where item views added by apps would have a much better and more feature rich UX if they can occupy more screen space than the current right sided drawer, which is very limited in size. My specific use case is using eazyform to edit an existing item, so I’d like to be able to display eazyform in the same way I display it in eazyform’s board view, including the ability to edit the structure of the form for items. Would be nice to have a generic expand button that expands the item view drawer to take on the entire board view space, and then a collapse button to go back to the regular drawer size. A similar more specific feature request has been upvoted 10 times, but this will solve it for all item views. @Ben , @dipro is this on the roadmap? Thanks, Ronen

Hi, as an administrator I should be able to see all boards, right? With this query I only get the boards I have subscribed to. boards { id name } I haven’t found a way to do this on monday.com either?

Is there a way to add the user id to the Create Item mutation so when a new item is created via the v2 API it shows up on the CREATION LOG column with the user specified in the query/mutation. In the v1 API when a new pulse was created you had the option of sending a user id with what ever user you wanted.

I’ve scoured the forums for every suggestion on how to use the create_item manipulation and adding column values, but the column values never seem to update. I currently have a group that has a column called “Submission ID”. Here is my python code that is trying to create an item and populate it with a column value: headers = build_auth_header() column_data = {"Submission ID": "Test"} board = XXXXXXXXX group = 'topics' item_name = 'TEST' query = (""" mutation ($name: String!, $board: Int!, $group: String!, $columns: JSON!) { create_item (board_id: $board, group_id: $group, item_name: $name, column_values: $columns) { id } } """) graph_var = { "board": board, "group": group, "name": item_name, "columns": json.dumps(column_data) } response = requests.post('https://api.monday.com/v2/', json={"query": query, "variables": graph_var},

I have a custom integration which was developed and tested using port 8080. All working well and I have setup on a vm with node server. Attempting to implement ssl to secure the traffic and all updates are then failing. Initial intention was to use Cloudfront LB to provide the secure certificate. and translate to port 80 behind the firewall. This was not working for me, so I have then tried to implement a self signed certificate in the code base. All attempts to use tls/ssl from the monday integration donot seem to run in the app. e.g. log statements dont fire. If I disable the middleware jwt and use a postman post. I get a successful exection of the code. But calls from monday Dont seem to get there. I dont believe its a firewall issue as I have configured for all incoming traffic. The cloud front approach I could see the post arrive, but I didnt get a successful update. (this may be a different networking issue) That is all background. Question. Is the correct approach to bu

Hi there, I’m trying to create task and define status of the task, but it is not easy to understand how to properly do this. My query: mutation {create_item (board_id: 377902169, group_id: "new_group18793", item_name: "new item", column_values: "{"status": "Search Active"}") {id}} This query failed with error: [{"message":"Parse error on \\": \\" (STRING) at [1, 117]","locations":[{"line":1,"column":117}]}] I’ve also tried this query: mutation {create_item (board_id: 377902169, group_id: "new_group18793", item_name: "new item", column_values: {status: "Search Active"}) {id}} And this query fails with 500 status code and message “We’re currently experiencing some technical issues which our developers are working hard to resolve” (but the status page shows there are no incidents…) So, the question is how I can set the correct value for columns for a new task? Thank you!

Monday.com is a wonderful platform and it has the potential to grow even more but the current state of it’s API can have very serious negative consequences on it’s adoption by developers. The developers at Monday.com can’t implement every feature, just like the developers at Google or Apple. Imagine Google trying to create every app on the app by itself. It is impossible. That is why companies create APIs and make them available for developers to be able to create applications on their platform. Monday.com claims to be a Work OS, and the beauty about OS’s are that, they are highly extendable. We enjoy using our computers because of the flexibility of the OS that has made developers to create different applications on that. In my current view, Monday.com is striving to be an opposite of what an OS is supposed to be. For users, it’s mostly great but for developers, it’s just terrible. I’m currently developing an application and the number of times that I have encountered problems withi

Hi all! I am curious how others are publishing their builds(wether it is from a custom URL or by upload). I’m wondering because I am having problems running opening my Monday App on accounts other than my own and Im worried that the fact that my builds are published via upload may be causing the issue. Thanks!

How in the world do I upload a file using the example PHP code format: $update_id = "XXXXXX"; $query = " mutation { add_file_to_update (update_id: ".$update_id.", $file: !File) { id } }"; $data = @file_get_contents($endpoint.'file', false, stream_context_create([ 'http' => [ 'method' => 'POST', 'header' => $endpoint_headers_file, 'content' => json_encode(['query' => $query]), ] ]));

When using the API Playground GraphiQL interface, it seems like it supports the ability (like the default GraphiQL from Apollo) to have multiple queries in the editor, then choose which one to run. It doesn’t work though and gives the error "An operation name is required" even though I have specified operation names for each query/mutation.

Hello, monday.com community. I am trying to get the name of a column given its id and board id. My code is query($boardId: [Int], $columnId: [String]) { boards(ids:$boardId){ columns(ids:[$columnId]){ title } } } const variables = { boardId, columnId }; const response = await mondayClient.api(query, { variables }); I am facing the following error { [0] errors: [ [0] { [0] message: 'List dimension mismatch on variable $columnId and argument ids ([[String]]! / [String])', [0] locations: [Array], [0] fields: [Array] [0] } [0] ], [0] } Would appreciate any help. Thank You!!.

Hi all! 🙂 I went through the Quick Start and installed my starter app. The app isn’t showing in Safari but is working fine in Chrome. I don’t have any extra content blockers running in Safari. When the window loads in Safari, I get this error in the console 7 times: Unrecognized Content-Security-Policy directive 'worker-src'. Followed by 3 401s, for : https://...cdn...chunk.css https://...cdn...chunk.js https://...cdn...chunk.js Any ideas if there’s anything I can do on my side to make this work in Safari? I don’t typically write in React and am not super familiar with working with service workers.

Hey there, I added both the DEV and PROD Redirect URLs in the Redirect URLs field on the OAuth & Permissions page within my Monday App and kept getting the following error on the /oauth2/token call: Data: { “error”: “invalid_grant”, “error_description”: “Authorization code and redirect_uri mismatch” } I found this curious because in the field it says “If you pass a redirect_uri in an OAuth request, it must exactly match one of the URLs you enter here”, and within the /authorize endpoint request body, you pass the redirect_uri parameter only if you have multiple Redirect URLs listed in the field above (else it defaults to the first configured URL in the list). Once I removed one of the Redirect URLs from the list (now only having 1), it started working again. The only thing I can think of here is that the Multiple Redirect URLs Logic is broken. Let me know what you find!

Is there any way to create custom trigger or maybe existing trigger to subscribe/unsubscribe and pass some config to external application - e.g. api_key for specific client. I know we can create recipe with outbound filed but this does not looks like proper way from security perspective Any recomendations ?

Those past days, regularly, the integrations from our listed App (QR Code Item Tracking) disappear: You can not find see them in the integration center anymore It doesn’t trigger the actions already configured In the developer backend, I can’t even see any recipe See that is action here: recipes not listed anymore - YouTube It was resolve yesterday, then, today, it failed again. I’m worried about that, because many customers are using this App. Is it a known issue? @VladMonday @amir

The create_column mutation accepts a ColumnType argument with one of the options being integration. What is the purpose of this type?

Hi, I’m trying to use the API v2 to change the values in a dropdown column. The first instruction works. The other two are not. But should work according to the instructions at https://monday.com/developers/v2#column-values-section-dropdown The following three actions should all always lead to the same result. That’s not the case. Only the first one results as expected. My primary interest is an update using the labels instead of the ids. Can someone help please? Thnx a lot Michael Instruction: mutation { change_column_value(board_id: 123, item_id: 456, column_id: “status2”, value: “{"ids":[1]}”) { id } } Expected: value: "{"ids": [1]} Result: value: "{"ids": [1]} Instruction: mutation { change_column_value(board_id: 123, item_id: 456, column_id: “status2”, value: “{"id":1}”) { id } } Expected: value: "{"ids": [1]} Result: value: "{"ids": null} Instruction: mutation { change_column_value(board_id: 123, item_id: 456, column_id: “status2”, value: “{"label":"xyz"}”) { id } } Expected: val

Hi, I am trying to build a List Field Type based in Custom Blocks. I have a requirement to prepare the list based on the boardId to which the recipe is being added. I found that only below parameters are passed to the “Remote Options URL” from monday.com as part of payload: recipeId integrationId Is there any way to also retrieve the boardId? Because i need to use it for preparing the list to be returned.

Hello everyone! this is my first topic here, so i hope that i’m doing it in the right section so, i1m having a strange problem, that i can’t seem to find the cause i made a simples app view in react, where i did a console.log with the response from the monday.listen(“eventes”), and, for some reason, i get multiple logs with just 1 action on the boards hope someone can shed a light on whats is going on full code of the app: import React, { useState } from “react”; import “./App.css”; import mondaySdk from “monday-sdk-js”; export default function App() { const monday = mondaySdk(); monday.listen(“events”, res => { console.log(res) }) return ( <div className="App"> Automações </div> ) }

Hi Community, I’m trying to create a new pulse, the query works fine but, if the item_name have a long text with spacebar it give me a 400 response or parse I’m working with Java.

Aloha, Is it possible to create an app that would use a location column to auto-populate a world clock column?That way if you set the location as Los Angeles, CA, the world clock would automatically convert to PST/PDT?

Hi, I’ve used some of the examples on here to develop an API load for data to a new board (the final location will change) and I’ve got the script creating the new item but it won’t load the content we want for the columns. EG Item Name, Text Column, Date Script happily creates the item but that is all. Board is mapped to the same structure etc so I’m not sure why this won’t run. Script is in Google App Script as we intend to use it to update regularly from a sheet, but we’re falling at thefirst hurdle. I’ve looked at all the topics on here and the Quickstart guides. function makeAPICall(key, query, variables) { var url = “https://api.monday.com/v2”; var options = { “method” : “post”, “headers” : { "Authorization" : key, }, “payload” : JSON.stringify({ "query" : query, "variables" : variables }), “contentType” : “application/json” }; var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options); Logger.log("API results: " + response.getContentText()); return response; } function Create_Line() { va
