API & Apps framework

Hello! Something strange happens when my webhook receives some data from Monday. It gives me the wrong board id. This is the board id I’m getting: When actually the board id is: 2167071773 When I’m trying to put the board id I got from the web hook in the url, it redirects me to the correct board id. Thanks! 🙂

Hello, i’m trying to build an API call to get all time tracking information about all boards and all items to use them for a more detailed controlling. But currently I am faced with the problem of filtering out all the zero values. My Code: query queryname { boards { name items { id name column_values (ids: "zeiterfassung") { id value } } } } The result i get: "data": { "boards": [ { "name": "Board 1", "items": [ { "id": "2268502411", "name": "Subitem", "column_values": [] } ] } { "name": "Board 2", "items": [ { "id": "2066324479", "name": "1.Introduction to Sales Professional (15min)", "column_values": [ { "id": "zeiterfassung", "value": "{\\"running\\":\\"false\\",\\"duration\\":19800,\\"startDate\\":1642092461,\\"additional_val

Hi There, TLDR: I’m having trouble with the monday OAUTH redirect_uri (post client authorization) as the monday system does not forward the state field as per the documentation. Currently the Oauth flow setup I have is as follows User is directed to the Monday app authrization page where the user clicks Authroize and approves the app’s scoped permissions: https://auth.monday.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<our apps client id>&state=<nonce generated by our system>&redirect_uri=https://<our app> Note: When this authorization page loads I can see the url changes to a new format i.e.: https://<subdomain>.monday.com/oauth2/authorize?oauth_payload_token=<jwt formatted token> I can see the jwt token when decoded clearly contains the state nonce that was passed to monday, suggesting it has been received (for the avoidance of any doubt that it has not). When the User clicks Authorize they are redirected to the redirect_uri however monday passes the state

I have been working with a client who wants to connect dashboard with Monday. I have successfully had webhooks working I can’t create a new one as I’m now getting this very descriptive error “Failed to communicate with URL provided.” I uploaded a basic challenge-response script to this url: https://dashboardonline.com.au/connect/monday.php Which works but not through Mondays Webhooks. Why would it work fine for 3 weeks then not work? I suspect the dashboardonline.com.au domain is blocked by Monday.com which seems strange. Can tech from Monday tell me why this is not working now? EDIT: Please note I moved the script to a test server and it works fine. Can a Monday.com tech help here? Another EDIT: I pointed another domain to the server and now it works on https://www.onapage.net/connect/monday.php. So its to do with the dashboardonline.com.au domain. Can anyone shed some light on that. the challange script used is: <?php $data = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'), true);

Use case: We want wo create an item in Monday when action item is created in our platform and sync future changes from our platform to Monday item Solution: we have created a custom trigger and custom action to achieve this and using GraphQL API to create an item when action is called. We want to sync future changes and therefore we need to “link” our action item id to the Monday’s item id and store this in our DB. Problem: we are providing actionItemId and actionItem fields as output fields to the trigger’s webhook endpoint but it doesn’t populate actionItemId as an input field in the request to our custom action endpoint. What might be a reason of this? Below are screenshots with out configurations Custom Action item Id field (actionItemId) Trigger I/O field Action Input fields Trigger request Action payload (actionItemId is missing)

Hi everyone, I’m wondering if anyone has any way that they use Monday to keep track of bookmarks of websites they want to remember. My use case: I’m a furniture sales company, and when I see a supplier that I’d like to keep in my vendors list, I would like a way to quickly add the webpage to my vendors list. As of now, I have to create a new item in Monday, then copy the link, and paste it into the new item. Ideally, I’d like to be able to just click an “add link as an item in Vendors board” button in my web browser. Anyway, is this something anyone is familiar with? Thanks!

Hi, Please advise how to track the board linked to a calendar item, thru API.

HI, Is there a way to figure out if a board is normal board with actions or a meeting board with calendar and discussion points; thru API framework ?

I have been using a cron backed by a database to update data in Monday. The database has received an Item ID greater than the maximum 32 bit integer. I know that Item ID is globally unique, so it makes since that it has gotten this large. How large will I have to set this in order to not have an issue in the future?

Subscriber to a board vs normal user in a board

I have several apps I have written in C# that create new boards and rows. After I created between 70 and 90 rows I get server timeout error. I’ve tried increasing the timeout value in my service talking to your server and it times out well before my timeout is reached. Can someone help with this? It is not that much data. The actual error is ’ The response from https://api.monday.com/v2/ was GatewayTimeout’ Thanks.

Hey Monday.com Team, Our Monday App (Custom Board View) creates a webhook on behalf of our user and we’re noticing some strange behavior. It looks like the User ID in the Webhook Event Payload is being returned as -4 about half of the time (please see the screenshots below). We rely on the userId in the event payload to notify the user via Monday.com notifications for when errors occur during background processes. Please let me know if this is a bug or has something to do with OAuth Scopes or something else!

Hi, I am new to Monday.com. I have a number of datasets in Microsoft Access and wonder if it’s possible to integrate Access with Monday. So, Access retains the datasets but Monday can update the data, dynamically. Has this been done? thanks, JP

Hello! Something strange happens when my webhook receives some data from Monday. It gives me the wrong Timestamp on the triggerTime variable. It’s off by excatly 60 minutes. Time here was 11:29 when I received the data, but on the data I get back it says “10:29”. I’ve tried it on different times and it always gives me the time with one hour shaved off. I’m in Sweden which puts me in the timezone “GMT+01:00 Stockholm”. Can anybody give me a reason for that? I need the correct time to be able to calculate what to do with the data. Thanks! 🙂

Is there any way to create a column only if it does not exist? At the moment, there is a chance that a race condition could result in duplication. Before adding data to a board, we need to be sure the board is correctly configure and create the correct columns… The only way we can do that now if through two API calls (read, create) and that can result in concurrency issues. Is there any solution to this? We need to avoid corrupting our data due to this…

Hi everyone, So I have this Python code: query = ‘mutation ($myBoardID: Int! , $myItemName: String!, $columnVals: JSON!) { create_item (board_id:$myBoardID, item_name:$myItemName, column_values:$columnVals) { id } }’ vars = { ‘myItemName’: serverName, ‘myBoardID’: self.board_id, ‘columnVals’: json.dumps({ ‘status’: {‘label’: str(status[0])}, ‘status1’: {‘label’: str(status[1])}, ‘status2’: {‘label’: str(status[2])}, ‘date4’: {‘date’: str(datetime.date(datetime.now()))}, ‘Error’: {‘text4’: Error} }) } Unfortunately I can only write to date and status. How can I know the name of the column in order to write to it? p.s. The name of the column I used ‘status’ to fill is not status. Can I even fill via code more than one status column? Thanks for your help

Hello! So I’m creating webhooks through an API call, which works great, and my program handels the challenge string as it is supposed to do. But my problem is: When I change a column or create an item it doesn’t get sent to my specified URL. I’ve tried tracing the script just to see if it receives something, but nothing comes through except for the challenge(even though I’ve integrated the possibility to create item and change column value). I even checked the Integration Activity, but it’s completely empty. Do I have to refresh something after creating an item or changing a column? Or is it supposed to just send the info straight away? Thankful for any help!

There’re a few IDs in monday that i’m not quite sure of, Board id User id Account id Item Id Could you explain a little more ?

Hey all, One of our dashboard’s widget app flows is to create boards on behalf of our users. As the dashboard might be located in different workspaces, we need to get the workspace’s id to which the dashboard is attached to, so we will create the board in the right workspace. How can we retrieve the workspace_id? We couldn’t find it using the monday.get("context") api call. Thanks, Etay

Hi guys! I’m wondering. What is included on the create_update mutation on Webhooks. Is that when an entire board is created? The rest I understand, but create_update I’m not sure of. Anybody has a clear explanation? I didn’t get it from the documentation. 🙂 Thanks!

do monday generate and encode the token in server side ?

Hi, I’m trying to use the pagination in my API query and getting the error message “Field boards doesn’t accept argument ‘pageint’” I’m not sure what the issue is, perhaps someone can help. My query is as follows: query = '{boards (limit:5000, newest_first:true, pageint:2 ) {name workspace{name id}}}' Thank you!

Hello there! I am working on the integration application. I am puzzled how I can add an “Authentication screen” for my app similar to the Jira or GitHub integrations(see screenshot bellow) so that user can connect to my integration app. I wasn’t able to find any documentation on how to add this screen if there is any please point me out. Thanks, Severyn

I am looking at setting up a cicd pipe line and I was wondering if it was possible to publish an app through the API. Basically when you are on the “App Versions” tab under the actions you have an option ‘Promote to Live’. I was just wondering if this was possible using your API.

Hey guys! Quick question: I’m trying to send this string to populate a column, but I get an empty response, which I figured out means that the syntax is completely wrong. If it would be “close” it would give me an error-message back. I’ve tried many different ways but keep getting an empty response. Can anybody see an obvious mistake I’ve made. I’ve managed successfully to send many other forms of mutations and queries, but not this one. If anybody sees something clearly obvious I would appreciate the help. Thanks! 🙂
