Hi @arunicbe,

Welcome to the community!

You’re missing the operator argument in your query (see more here). Since you’re filtering by the phone number as a string, you would use contains_text.

I added the operator and removed the + sign from the phone number string, and it successfully returned the items for me.

Here’s the updated query:

query { boards (ids: 1917599964) {
items_page (query_params: {rules: [{column_id: "mobile", compare_value: ["912222333345"], operator:contains_text}]}) {
cursor
items {
id
name
}
}
}
}

Let us know if you have other questions!

Best,
Rachel

I just copied the query in my code. Now it is giving just null as result.

I am using PHP to call the api. My full code is below:

<?php $token = 'xxx'; $apiUrl = 'https://api.monday.com/v2'; $headers = ['Content-Type: application/json', 'Authorization: ' . $token]; $query = 'query { boards (ids: 1917599964) { ' . ' items_page (query_params: {rules: [{column_id: "mobile", compare_value: ["912222333345"], operator:contains_text}]}) { ' . ' cursor ' . ' items { ' . ' id ' . ' name ' . ' } ' . ' } ' . ' } ' . ' } ' ; $data = @file_get_contents($apiUrl, false, stream_context_create([ 'http' => [ 'method' => 'POST', 'header' => $headers, 'content' => json_encode(['query' => $query]), ] ])); $responseContent = json_decode($data, true); echo json_encode($responseContent); ?>

Upon investigation, I found PHP showing warning like this.
Warning: file_get_contents(https://api.monday.com/v2): Failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found

However, another api call I have is working fine.

Hello there @arunicbe,

Our logs appear to indicate that the column you are trying to use (of ID “mobile”) is not being found.

You can check the IDs of your board with a query like this one:

{
  boards(ids: 1234567890) {
    columns {
      id
      title
    }
  }
}

Also, I recommend using something like this instead of your query:

{
  items_page_by_column_values(
    limit: 50
    board_id: 1234567890
    columns: [{column_id: "phone__1", column_values: ["9720531111111"]}]
  ) {
    cursor
    items {
      id
      name
    }
  }
}

I hope that helps!

Cheers,
Matias
