Hi, Is it possible to return meaningful person data via a query? I’m new to monday and may be attempting to handle this in the wrong manner. In a simple query the data brought back as part of the payload within column_values is something like the following: “{”“personsAndTeams”“:[{”“id”“:16491444,”“kind”“:”“person”“}],”“changed_at”“:”“2020-10-06T15:04:20.130Z”“}” This is not much good in my use-case which is reporting: I want a name or email address rather than an id. Is it possible to write the query such that it returns a more useful value, or can this id be used in an additional query to return either the specific user in each case, or a list of users that could then be ‘matched’ using the id as a key?

Hi Just wondering if there’s an API for duplicating / cloning an Item? Like we can do from the UI I can’t seem to find any reference in the API

Is there any demand for full duplication of a board using the V2 API? I would like to create boards (out of templates) from my Wordpress site and then assign users and guests to the newly created boards. Any ideas?

Hello All, I am using this small code in M query (power BI) to extract data out of monday board. But when i try to schedule a refresh in power BI platform it says “not authenticated”. Can any one help me to find a way to add authentication in the code or how can i login to this https://api.monday.com/v2 so that power BI can authenticate itself. Any help will be appreciated. here is the code. let Key = “api token”, Board = “board id”, Source = Web.Contents( “https://api.monday.com/v2”, [ Headers=[ #“Method”=“POST”, #“Content-Type”=“application/json”, #“Authorization”=“Bearer " & Key ], Content=Text.ToBinary(”{““query””: ““query { boards(ids: " & Board & “) { items { name, columns: column_v

Hello everyone, I was trying to create a new Monday integration to my app and I had some issues after I finished with the OAuth process (my integration doesn’t need the user to enter any particular board_Id on any other data I get access to it from the token). As I confirmed my integration I was getting this error on this particular request ( when I pressed on the “Add to board” button),

Hello all, Is there any way to get the information (name, email address) of account administrators from within an app? I’d like to know if using the SDK I can know who the admins are, and it seems I can’t get that from the API (the schema doesn’t describe anything related for neither user nor account unless I’m missing something). Is it possible?

Hi All I developed a board view app which works perfectly when a full member of the board uses it. However, it doesn’t work when a guest or viewer is logged in. The issue seems to be that a call to the api via the Sdk doesn’t return any data when A viewer or a guest is logged in to the parent monday web app. This is consistent with the response from the API playground (although via the Sdk, I get a more cryptic error message m, but the status code is the same: 403). My question is: how are board view / widget apps supposed to be built so they can access board data even when a guest is logged in? This is one of the main reasons why we chose Monday: the ability to expose bespoke content to external parties. Thanks Jaacquees

So it seems once you’ve uploaded your icon once it cannot be changed anymore. I’ve tried everything, change the filename, resolution, saving again with a different description. here’s a screenshot, I’d love from the dev team can help 🙋‍♂️

Hi, I have two accounts on Monday.com: Account 1 and Account 2 I’ve created an Application in Account 1 and invited the Account 2 as a Collaborator. Then I’ve installed the app in Account 1 and I can see it from Account 2. So, when trying to do the OAuth using Account 2 credentials I get the following: { “message”: "Error while authenticating: {"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"App not available for user"} " } What could be the issue? Really stuck Thanks in advance

Hi there 👋 When I read the doc here, I’m expecting to get: token_type scope access token expires_in refresh_token in response to: https://auth.monday.com/oauth2/token But expires_in and refresh_token are missing in the response (everything goes well, I don’t have any error or problem). Does it mean that the tokens are now valid without any expiration date (the doc mentionned 30 days)? For me, it would make sense, as the integration can be removed by the user in Monday.

Hi ! I’m looking for monday’s 0Auth client ID in order to set up correctly the Panel control security section of our company’s Gsuite. I can’t find this code/number anywhere and monday’s helping center have told me they can’t get back to me before 2 business days. Any luck that one of you guys know the Monday’s 0Auth client ID please ? Thanks.

I’m using the GraphQL API and I’m not sure if the issue I’m facing is due to an error or a mistake on my side. I’m trying to get all groups and items on a particular board. While the query works in general, it has a complexity that doesn’t make sense to me. The query complexity seems to assume I potentially parse all items in the account, not only the ones in the specified board. Here is my query: { boards(ids: 123456789) { groups{ title items(limit:100) { name column_values(ids: [“firsti_d”, “second_id”]) { text } } } } } Running the query with different limits on “items” gives the same result, but with vastly different complexity, making me hit the rate limit really quickly, although the board is rather small. A workaround might be a limit in groups, but that doesn’t seem to exist?

Hey there, Looks like there was an api change today or recently where providing true and not “true” for checkbox column “checked” property stopped working when using a boolean and not a string. If anybody else experienced the same issue, here the fix: { checked: "true" } // instead of { checked: true } Cheers, Ronen Eazyform

Hey, i’m using the monday sdk in a server env with my own personal token and when calling items_by_column_values immediately after create_item it doesn’t find the created item. If I “sleep” a few seconds between create_item and items_by_column_values then it finds the item. I need this to work for my unit tests, without sleeping - what’s the solution? Will calling the monday api not via the monday sdk solve the problem? Thanks, Ronen

Hey there, I just noticed that the developer account has a complexity limit of 1,000,000 instead of 10,000,000 for a regular account. This really limits me development and testing wise. Any chance to increase that limit to at least a regular’s account limit? Thanks, Ronen

Hi all I would like to share a simple repo for making Vue based Monday apps. It is a very simple app (simpler than the Vue CLI starter). An ngrok tunnel is automatically setup and url copied to clipboard if turned on. Feel free to fork, update as your wish. GitHub

Hi! I’m trying to update a checkbox column but if I send the checked value as false it still checks the column: mutation { change_multiple_column_values(item_id:295524638,board_id:287994487,column_values: "{\\"check\\": {\\"checked\\": \\"false\\"}}"){ id } } Any advice?

Hi I wonder if anyone has connected to monday`s API from PowerBI, and want to share a step by step… I dont want to dev a API in the middle to translate. Thanks /Jo

Where can I find information on date and text formatting codes/tokens for Monday.com, as used in the formula functions FORMAT_DATE and TEXT, specifically? I was able to find some date formatting tokens here: Tokens for date/time formatting Help Docs | Integromat Help Center, but these listed tokens do not 100% match Monday.com’s token functionality. I have not found anything regarding text formatting tokens.

Hi there, just a quick question. Everything is in the title! I did not see anything like this in API V2. Seems strange in my opinion, so please answer this post if you know a way!

I am using change_multiple_column_values mutation for updating column values but while updating the “week” column value through API, I am continuously getting internal server error, it is blocking development. Can anyone please clarify what is wrong with the following query. mutation{change_multiple_column_values (board_id:xxxxx,item_id:xxxxx,column_values:"{\\"week\\":{\\"week\\":{\\"startDate\\":\\"2020-12-12\\",\\"endDate\\":\\"2020-12-19\\"}}}") {id}} Thank you.

Hi there 👋, I’m working on an App that should check if if the maintenance of a site was done on time. For instance, a task is planned for 10am. If it is 10:15am and nobody went on site, we should send an email to the project manager to say: “you should send someone else”. We can’t wait for the next day. How would you do that?

Looks like Workspace Templates beta is out for Apps! Looks pretty straightforward but we do have a couple of questions: What are the recommended dimensions for screenshot thumbnails and other images, for the upcoming Marketplace listings? Does the video link have to be a Cloudinary link? Or can we use YouTube or Vimeo instead?

Hey, The api session didn’t broadcast and now the current as well. Is it happening to others? Thanks, Ronen
