Mutation on column value works via API Playground but not via REST-

Hello there,

I am not sure how you are sending the HTTP request but I have a few notes that might help:

This is not a REST API, it is GraphQL.

The request is always a POST request

The endpoint is always the same one: https://api.monday.com/v2 (unless you are uploading a file)

Here is a Postman example on change_simple_column_value

As you can see in that example, you can use something like this (again, this is Postman):

{
    "query": "mutation {change_simple_column_value(item_id: 1234567890, board_id: 1122334455, column_id: \\"text\\", value: \\"Some text\\") {id}}" 
}

I hope that helps!

Thank you that solved it, two issues

I did not have the /" escape and I was also sending “mutation” instead of “query” at the start of the string.

Changed that and it worked straight away, thank you
