Hello,
I would like to propose an extension to the app migration deadline, which is currently set for April 30.
In my view, the time provided to adapt existing apps has been too short, especially for more complex implementations. Since this migration was only announced at the end of January, developers have effectively had just three months to redesign, test, and deploy their solutions. For many apps, that is simply not enough time.
The new system also introduces significant changes, not only for developers but for end users as well. It requires additional effort to understand the new setup and, in many cases, to explain it internally to the people who will be using it.
In our case, we developed a private internal app that syncs Google Calendar events from each user’s work calendar. The entire solution is currently hosted on monday code and relies on a fairly intricate webhook architecture to handle both incremental and bulk updates on the monday side. This setup required a substantial amount of time to build, and migrating it is not a simple update.
On top of the technical migration itself, this change will also require us to manually reconfigure each user’s integration in order to adopt the new app setup, which adds a significant operational burden.
Of course, I do not know how many public and private apps have already been migrated, but I believe many developers are finding this transition difficult to implement. The documentation is not always clear, and the structure can be complex to navigate.
For these reasons, I believe extending the migration deadline would help developers deliver more stable migrations and give companies more time to adapt properly.
