API & Apps framework

Hello Community, I’ve been working on developing an app idea for Monday.com. From the past 2 days, when I was trying to start the app server in local instance, I am getting the below error. [11:13:37.471] WARN: retrying connection to the server (attempt 5)… [1] [11:13:38.473] WARN: retrying connection to the server (attempt 6)… [1] [11:13:39.474] WARN: retrying connection to the server (attempt 7)… [1] [11:13:40.477] WARN: retrying connection to the server (attempt 8)… [1] [11:13:41.480] WARN: retrying connection to the server (attempt 9)… [1] [11:13:42.485] WARN: retrying connection to the server (attempt 10)… The server is not able to start, and I am not able to verify the changes done. Any leads to the issue resolution would be much appreciated! Thanks Koti

Hello i think there’s a bug with monday item where my app wasn’t able to open a new tab to my website’s registration page. The error message in console is Blocked opening URL in a new window because the request was made in a sandboxed frame whose ‘allow-popups’ permission is not set.

I am new to Monday. I have a Board. I want to add an item. The GUI for the App shows three interesting things about an item An item has a name, a week, a quantity and an order number. So I would see columns like that. “foomanchu”, “June 27”, 3, “#327656” So now I use GraphQL Mutation to insert a new item in the board. Thing is, I cannot wrap my head around Monday in terms of item column values. I do a GET on an existing item, and I see what I consider to be unstructured data. Specially, for an item named “foomanchu”, these column values. {“value”=>“"JUN 27"”, “text”=>“JUN 27”}, {“value”=>“"1"”, “text”=>“1”}, {“value”=>“"30204"”, “text”=>“30204”}, So there is no reference to week, quantity or order #. So if I want to POST a Mutation with a new item for this board, and I have the board ID and the name of the item, what are the column values I present, so that they fall into the Week, Quantity and Order Number columns all other items are created with? It like this add ne

I’m forced to believe that, monday devs don’t create workflow blocks the same way we do through the UI, because it is hard to imagine that, they also go through the same pain developers go through when creating multiple workflow blocks. They would have implemented a duplicate feature right from the start if they did. Since monday at the moment does not support conditional workflows (even it did, workflow block duplication is still needed), multiple duplicate workflow blocks will have to be created with the same parameters and just minor changes. This is exactly where the problem lies. First, it is error prone since you could mistype the ids or names of the Input fields. That means, you would need to keep any tab open to compare. That is where another problem comes in. Since you have the same page of with conflicting data (old tab doesn’t yet contain the new action being created), should you save any data on the old tab, monday crushes. That means, any progress you have made in the new

I’m working through the Quickstart Guide and have installed node.js for VS Code following this tutorial. I did not install the Express package. I can see the node.js version is v18.16.1, and npm is v9.5.1. The package from nodejs.org also installed chocolatey v2.0.0. Is there another step I’m missing? Because when I attempt to setup the dev environment for Monday - by copying and running the npx command from within my account - I get the following:

I’m trying to create a board using VBA. Here is the code I’m trying: Sub MigrateToMonday() Dim monday As New MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP60 Dim response As Variant Dim status As Variant Dim query As String myurl = “https://api.monday.com/v2” mytoken = “*********” query = " { ““query”” : ““mutation{@@@}””}" query = Replace(query, “@@@”, “create_board(board_name: ““zzTestGJF””, board_kind: public){id}”) With monday .Open "POST", myurl, False .SetRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/json" .SetRequestHeader "Accept", "application/json" .SetRequestHeader "Authorization", mytoken .Send query response = .responseText status = .status & " | " & .StatusText End With MsgBox response MsgBox status MsgBox query End Sub All I get back is a “Run-time error ‘-2147012894(80072ee2)’; Automation error” Can someone point out where my error is and how to correct it?

I’m building a workdoc feature and would like to hit the Monday API from my backend. How do you recommend I get the monday access token to perform this API request? Currently, I created a Sign In button inside the window that is shown when doing a slash command in the workdoc. Once a user clicks the button, it triggers the OAuth popup, which lets the user authorize the app. Then it automatically closes the OAuth popup and refreshes the original window that was opened via the slash command. Is this the best way of handling getting an API access token from the workdocs context or is there a better way?

Hi there, Some questions about the recent update of the seat-based apps mechanism: First quetion, how can I test if my apps are subject to this new mechanism? My Idea was to use the set mock app subscription API but our monday.com developer instance is seen as a 0 user plan (by the Plan API): { "data": { "account": { "plan": { "max_users": 0, "period": "infinity", "tier": "free", "version": 9 } } }, "account_id": xxxx } So any seat-plan from my app is accepted with that number of user. Next question, regarding the changelog it’s stated: This logic applies to view apps, dashboard widgets, and custom objects (essentially any UI feature). Does this logic also apply to Workdoc? And more precisely to Workdoc Action? If no, any plan to add compatibility? One last thing regarding the updated seat-based monetization documentation, the link in the sentence: we will block or allow user access by comparing account size to plan size l

I have created the app using reactJS that works with monday. But I can not find that app anywhere and also if i did find the app, I do not want a separate view for my app. I want to update the view of updates. How can I achieve that? For now I have created an app and built a Board view feature and then in ReactJS quickstart I have made some changes and then published the app, but I can not find the app when I try to add it. Also, I am thinking even if I find the app, I won’t be able to see that inside the updates section. I want to be able to edit the updates section. How can I achieve that? Thanks.

I asked ChatGPT and yes, I understand it can be wrong, "How would I write an update script using Google script and monday.com’s API? Amusingly it gave me the following: To write an update script using Google Script and Monday.com’s API, you’ll need to follow these steps: Set up a Google Script project: Open the Google Script editor Create a new project or open an existing one. Enable the Monday.com API: Go to Monday.com’s Developer page at https://monday.com/developers/v2/. Sign in to your Monday.com account. Click on the “API Access” tab. Click on the “Create API Token” button and generate an API token. Make sure to keep the API token safe, as you’ll need it later. Install the Monday.com API library in Google Script: In the Google Script editor, click on the “Libraries” icon (it looks like a square grid). Enter the library’s script ID: 1GfeZbDgKqEg5-6DaWNqqoP2XfX3y4E7VkakHyhZQ8y6xqYPpF03W3bn0 and click “Add.” Select the latest version of the library and click “Save.” …et

Hello, I’m trying to develop an automation tool with python that creates an item with two subitems, when each subitem has a number of link columns and file columns. So far, all works. After running the automation script, all .tsv files and links are uploaded successfully. But after I refresh my browser, all the files are permanently disappears. Response’s status code is 200. Query returns all the data about the file (id, name etc.) File is still exist in local. Don’t know where else to debug and how to troubleshoot. Not sure where the problem comes from.

Is it possible to render custom content within a column? For example I’m looking to achieve something like the progress tracking column but rather than being mapped to status columns in the board it would keep track of changes within the item view component. At the moment I can only think of needing to add the status columns collapsed somewhere in the board to keep it out of the user’s way but this is not particularly extensible (10+ steps to track would make for a lot of clutter). It would be nice to have a column to put some html + css to feedback the current status to the user.

When the “integrate” button at the top of a board is pressed, and then “Board Integrations” tab is selected, it shows “no active integrations yet on this board” until it loads the integrations. This really needs to be changed to “Loading your board’s integrations…” until the loading phase completes. If there are no integrations, it should then say “no active integrations yet on this board”. The problem is, while it churns for 10-15 seconds loading integrations, the user sees there are no integrations. They either panic, or they think its been deleted and recreate it resulting in duplicates. Telling the user there are no integrations when in fact the page does not yet know if there are or are not integrations is a poor user experience. Customers are being told information that is known in advance to be potentially incorrect. Also, improve Board Integrations screen load load time. Waiting 10-15 seconds (I’ve seen it hit almost a minute before) definitely makes customers think its broken

Hi Everyone! In Make.com I am using Graph QL to insert the linked pulse id to another board and also would like to change a status column. The linked pulse works great, or anytime I try this with 1 column, but anytime I try adding more than one column change in the mutation, it instantly gives me a 200 error. Any help would be appreciated! mutation { change_multiple_column_values(item_id:123456789, board_id:11223344, column_values: “{"connect_boards" : {"item_ids" : [4670722142]}, {"status5":"PUSHED"}”) { id } }

Hi, We didn’t find any API for retrieving the list of installed apps and app integrations. We’d be glad if you could attach a reference if such an API exists. Thanks.

Mirrored Column Item values are being displayed as null when requested through API, this is the API request. Shouldn’t this be fixed?: query { boards(ids:[BOARD_ID]) { items(ids:[ITEM_ID]) { column_values { id value } } } }

Hi, I tried to use the <Tab> component from the monday-ui-react-core lib as described in the Vibe design system but it seems to be missing. I tried import { Tab } from "monday-ui-react-core"; …but to no avail. What am I missing?

After creating a new item with mutation { create_item ( board_id: 1234567890, group_id:"emailed_items", item_name: "new item for testing 20230620T2341" ) { id } } And verifying it exists, using the simple “items” query, I was expecting the item to appear in the board UI but it is not there. I refreshed the page and it didn’t help. I also tried the “search everything” and it didn’t find the new item. It only shows in the graphql results. I also tried duplicating an item from the board, since I thought, maybe there are columns or fields I needed to set to make it work. So I used: mutation { duplicate_item ( board_id: 1234567890, item_id: 234234234 ) { id } } With similar results: the item was created successfully and I could see it using the graphql query, but it is not showing in the board and the “search everything” fails to find it.

While exploring the GraphQL API, I have encountered a problem in making a group in a specific board: The board query returns the board_id as an ID! , while the create_group expects the board_id as an Int! . When I try to send my board_id as an Int! , I get a message that my library cannot coerce the number to an Int! . When I try to send my board_id as an ID!, I get a type mismatch message between my variable (ID!) and the board_id argument (Int!). How do I create a group in a specific board via the GraphQL API ?

Hi, Is there any way to make sure that all users of a board have the same default sorting when they enter a board ? Can I restrict users to save their own sorting ? Can I use the API to get the sorting settings for a user, board combination ? Thanks

Hi there, I created a new issue for the monday-sdk-js package: [Bug] monday.execute for 'openItemCard' does not resolve promise for kind 'updates' · Issue #92 · mondaycom/monday-sdk-js · GitHub I wanted to report it here as well in case I am missing someone or to check if someone else also experienced this issue. This is a blocking bug for us in creating a custom view in monday.com. Thank you for checking this and helping us out!

Hi there, I am facing an issue while opening the item card inside a dashboard widget using the function monday.execute(‘openItemCard’, { itemId: itemId, kind: ‘columns’ }) This seems to be working fine in a board view app The sdk version in my package.json is “monday-sdk-js”: “^0.1.6”,

Hello, We have an app in monday.com and are using users token that we get from oauth to make request to the monday.com graphql service, We make query for each specific users request with token we get for specific user. Does this mean each user request will be treated separately for complexity limits for our app or do we use up our apps complexity limits?

Hello, colleagues! I am starting to use the Monday.com API to extract data and use it at Power BI. I used the following algorithm: A function that sends the API KEY, the board id, the limit, and the page number and receives only the itemId. A function uses the first function and paginates the results. A function that sends the itemId and receives all information from the column values. PS.: the functions will be available at the end. This algorithm takes around 20 minutes to extract a board with around 900 items with 40 columns. I am doing some actions to reduce time and would like your advice. My first attempt was to reduce the number of column values; however, this did not change the time consumption. One point that I would like to understand is the limit logic. Besides my option, my first function is receiving all items. Does the API send all records if the complexity is under the limit? First Function => (apikey as text, QuadroId as text, limite as number, pagina as numb

Hello, We have the option to manually add a monday Doc to file columns, But is it possible to connect/upload/add a Doc to a file column via the API? Thanks
