Hi everyone,I'm running into an issue with the Apps Framework regarding custom automations, and I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this or if it's a known bug.The Setup:I've built an integration that relies on a custom trigger for file uploads. In the setup, the user authorizes and selects their credentials, which are tied to their external platform's team ID and user ID.The Issue:When a user builds the automation from scratch using the custom recipe, everything works perfectly. The credentialsValues object is properly populated in the webhook payload, allowing us to route the request to the correct external team.However, when we package this exact same setup into an Automation Template and the user installs it, the webhook fires but the credentialsValues object drops entirely and comes through as empty ({}).I think this wouldn’t be the expected behaviour. 

HiIs there a way to connect to the Document DB with admin/write permissions?I’m aware of the https://developer.monday.com/apps/docs/command-line-interface-cli#mapps-databaseconnection-string command, but it generates read-only connection (https://developer.monday.com/apps/docs/document-db#step-3-generate-a-temporary-connection-string). I’m working on an app and I’m testing some stuff in my development environment. I would appreciate having more control, like for example an ability to clear the database.

In the Status column documentation, it says that “The column's value as text. Returns null if the column has an empty value.” This is true, and can initially be verified when querying for the `settings` value within the column that there is no entry for the default label, which is the gray label that looks like this in the label editor: However, If the user clicks on the Default Label, enters text, applies the changes, and then goes back and deletes all the text so the default label is empty again, and applies, then an entry appears in the column’s settings that has an empty string for the label:                 {                    "id": 5,

Hi monday.com dev community 👋 Sharing a new app from LupApps: Column Clone & SyncTHE PROBLEMFormula, Mirror, Timeline, and Connected Boards columns hold critical data — but monday.com locks them out of automations.You can't select a Formula column in the automation builder. Mirror is read-only. Timeline dates can't split into separate columns natively.The Workflow Builder now supports some of these scenarios, but Pro accounts are limited to 5 workflows — and building a full workflow just to make one column value usable doesn't scale.     OUR APPROACH CCS is built as a column extension — not an automation. Click the three dots on any column header → Apps → Column Clone & Sync → pick your source → done.No workflow builder. No automation recipes. No operations cost. Setup takes ~5 seconds. WHAT CCS COVERS

Hi, I would like to know if it’s possible to create a table in a Workdoc that can automatically calculate values, similar to an Excel table.For example, can I select specific cells and apply a formula (like =1*3) so that the result is calculated directly within the table?

If I price per user, and I want these Accounts to be able to subscribe as many users as they want to my app, is that possible? For example, if the Account has 100 Monday users, but only 3 users want to use my app, how do I set that up? Thanks!

Hi everyone,I’m currently facing an issue where credentialsValues is returning an empty object {} in my automation.Here’s what I’ve done so far:I’m using an automation block and have added the credentials there The keys match exactly between the feature configuration and my server code Despite this, credentialsValues is still coming through as {}Has anyone encountered this before or knows what might be causing it? Any help would be appreciated 🙏

Hello! I am working on developing an application using an Outlook subscription. For the subscription to function correctly, I need to schedule a job that runs every six hours to renew it.However, even though my application is active, the scheduled job for creating the subscription is failing, and I am receiving an error message: “Request failed with status code 400, Bad Request.”mapps scheduler:create -a 11098366 -s "0 */6 * * *" -e "renew-outlook" -n "renew-outlook-job" -d "Renews Outlook Graph subscriptions every 6 hours." -r 3 -z us, and similar commands do not work. I have tried all the possible combinations of passing or omitting arguments, but none of these work.

Hi,Has anyone been successful in using the Item Values field in the new workflows infrastructure?From https://developer.monday.com/apps/docs/breaking-changes-and-deprecated-features, it seems like Item Values is the new equivalent of the Item Mapping field.In the legacy sentence builder, the when you click on the Item Mapping field, it used to bring up a UI to help map custom object fields to the item columns.However, when replacing it with the new Item Values, this UI doesn’t pop-up with the item columns.Any idea?

I'd like to replicate this kind of UI from sentence builder within workflows:The image above shows monday's standard Outlook Calendar configuration.While learning to do similar in workflows, I'd like the ability to replicate this UI.In workflows we can use "sub fields" – https://developer.monday.com/apps/docs/object-fields – and because the calendar event in Outlook has a fixed number of things to configure, we can use a static schema without the need for a remote URL.I'd done the following to configure the static schema:I've connected this t

Hi,My app downloads assets from a board using the public_url queried from the API and httpx.When deployed on Monday Code, the DNS of the URL host (prod-euc1-files-monday-com.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com) resolves but the downloads time out.My app is live but private to the client’s account. It is hosted in US region by default since this is where my personal account is, but the client’s data in the EU region. I suspect this region difference is what causes the packets to be dropped, but activating networking allow list for prod-euc1-files-monday-com.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com hasn’t made a difference.Would you have an idea of what is happening?My instinct would push me towards asking the client for a licence in their account in order to deploy the app from there but that would make them have to pay for an extra licence.Thank you. 

Is there a easy way to change the base url of an api endpoint in an automation block for a draft version?Just trying to avoid having to manually update each feature every time and then remembering to update when pushing the version to live.

Suppose I have a mirror column which sums the amounts on a numbers column. That column is connected to multiple items. When I make a query like this:query { items(ids: [ids]) { column_values { ... on MirrorValue { display_value } } }}I get a response like this:"items": [ { "column_values": [ { "display_value": "101, 202" } ] }]I would expect that the “display_value” would match what is displayed on my board, and if I want the individual values, I could dig into “mirrored_items”. Is there a way to get the aggregated value from this column, without parsing this string and performing the calculation myself (and determining which calculation I need to perform)?

Is Project Health / RAG status on Project Boards accessible via the public GraphQL API? If not, is there a plan to expose it?

The docs mention creating, deleting and publishing articles but not updating their content. How can the API be used to update article content?https://developer.monday.com/api-reference/reference/articles#mutations

Hey everyone! I’m new here and looking for some perspective on a workflow issue.In my team, we constantly struggle with 'premature completion', people marking a parent task as 'Done' before the sub-tasks are actually ready. I'm thinking of building a small app that 'locks' the parent task until a certain percentage of sub-tasks hit a specific status.Does anyone else run into this? I’d love to hear how you handle it or if there are specific rules your team uses that I haven't thought of. what is the best way to connect with people who have similar problems here?

Hello,Lately, I've been struggling with automations. I want to maximize the use of Monday.com by creating an automation that updates a connected board column on all linked items whenever a status changes. However, it seems this isn’t possible with the standard automations or workflows.So my question is: does anyone know if an app already exists that can handle this type of automation, or could someone help me build such a workflow in an app?

Hi everyone,I’ve been diving into the updates and it’s great to see the new support for querying multi-level subitems and the hierarchy_types: [multi_level] argument.However, I’ve hit a wall regarding programmatic creation. Currently, create_board seems to default to the classic structure. While we can now query deep hierarchies, I don't see a way to initialize a board as "Multi-Level" via the API.Are there plans to support multi-level boards creation via API?

I am working on the board view app feature.I have deployed / hosted that app on the monday CDN . It is nothing but the react app.I want to share that view or react app using public shareable link.  

Good day, I am developing a custom application in React. Ideally, to be used as a board view. The issue I am having is that, while the custom board view renders and works fine on PC, I get met with: This feature is currently unavailable on mobile. Please go to desktop to use it. However, using the exact same, identical code as a dashboard widget instead of a board view, allows for the app/feature to be used on mobile (testing done with the most recent version of the Monday app on iOS 16.6.1). This is not ideal, as using a widget for my application feels clunky, and the scrolling is not intuitive. I was wondering if there are certain features that may restrict my application from being used as a board view, or if this is just the case with all React apps. Any advice/info would be appreciated. Thanks, Liam

Hi everyone,Recently, I’ve been experiencing an issue with my monday app when creating a new version.ProblemWhen I click Create Version, the system often shows an error message, so it looks like the version creation has failed.However, after waiting around 5–10 minutes, I notice that the new version is actually created successfully.Why this is a problemBecause the update is delayed and the UI shows an error, it’s very hard to know whether the version creation really failed or is just being processed slowly.As a result, I sometimes click Create Version multiple times, and this ends up creating several duplicate versions with the same name.Additional infoI’ve attached screenshots to help illustrate the issue.Has anyone experienced something similar, or is this a known issue on monday’s side?Thanks!

I have an automation block (well, actually several of course). It can be triggered fromA workflow An automation Within Sidekick AII want to track usage so that I can assess how my app is being used.How can I tell where the block was triggered from? How can I tell which of the above use cases is the most popular?  Can the payload in the block be used to differentiate where it was triggered from? If not, why not? Make it so pleeeeease.
