Hello! I want to know if it’s possible to develop custom columns to add on a board. If not, is there any chance to customise somehow the value that appears on a column? In the end, we want to allow the users to select one or multiple values, but we don’t like to use the we don’t want to use the dropdown for three reasons: A user can add another value and we don’t want to allow that We want to add a link on the value selected to go to some board integration. We want to customise what the users can see on a selected value, like adding an image or something else. Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks!

Hello, Im pulling monday.com board to excel with this but I am struggling to have the items grouped by a group name. Can anyone help? {“query”:“{ boards (ids: 00000000) { items { name column_values (ids: ["status", "status_1", "date", "long_text"] ) { text } } }}”}

Does anyone know what happened to the built-in trigger “When a status changes to something”? Is there something I’m doing wrong?

I have a question which seems pretty basic, yet I haven’t been able to find a clear answer as I went thru the docs. I have an app which I’m trying to convert from using the short-lived access token to using the oauth token, so I can have a longer time span for the work my app needs to do. I’ve figured out the oauth process, got the oauth token and can store it if needed. Great. My question is…now what? How do I actually use the oauth token in my code to provide the authorization? My code currently has a number of places where it uses the short-term access token. Could this be as simple as directly substituting the oauth token for the short-term access token, passing it the oauth token to all the places where it’s set up to receive the short-lived token? Or am I totally on the wrong track here? Thanks for your help.

Hi all! I have an integration that mirrors updates between mirrored item, and when an update is created, the update’s creator will always be the integration’s installer. Is there a way to change update creator via monday’s API? thank you!

Hi, New to monday I ahve just set up an account for our company. We have created a standard board template that will be used and shared via dashboards with managers. We have a client dropdown field in the table that we have manually populated with the current list of clients. As new clients arrive we would like to add them to the list and for them to become available to all the users using the company template. Is it possible to add an option to a dropdown list in the way. Ideally we would keep the list outside monday and call the content via API if that makes sense ? So as we add the clients to the external list they would update and be available in the dropdown list in monday

Hi, I’m trying to send the challenge test using python, I’m stuck with that any input. jorge

Hi, Just want to report what seems like a bug, and ask you to resolve it quick. I’m trying to update the people column, and getting errors. I even tried using the api graph playground, with the mutation command copied directly from the documentation, and this is what I got (Other column updates worked fine thru the api playground): mutation { change_multiple_column_values(item_id:1889308806, board_id:1889308796, column_values: “{"people" : {"personsAndTeams":[{"id":2292943,"kind":"person"}]}}”) { id } } SyntaxError: Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0

The query below results in the query complexity budget being exhausted, especially if users are not being limited: me { id, name, teams { id, name, users(limit: 100) { id } } } complexity { before, after, query, reset_in_x_seconds } However the query cost for the query below is only about 1000. teams { id, name, users { id } } complexity { before, after, query, reset_in_x_seconds } Am I misunderstanding about the usage of the first query or is this a bug?

We want to collapse a column (e.g. hide) via the API. Does the API support this feature? Thanks.

Hi monday lovers. We are proud to announce our Round Robin Assignments (see marketplace) app got on update. With the addition of a status based trigger the app now supports three different trigger types and two methods to define the team. The available trigger types are: When item is created; this recipe can only exists one time in a board. When checkbox is ticked (multiple checkboxes are supported); when the checkbox is unticked the assignment for that item will be cleared. When status change; you can add multiple of these recipes as long as the status value is unique. This enables you to: Define a team to pick from for reviewing the item Define another team to pick from for pricing the item Etc. The team can be defined by: An existing monday.com team By selecting an item and column on the boar

I’ve been looking at the column types and syntax to get the different values from the columns. But sometimes it seems that the data/structure shown via the api playground is different than when I use my nodejs debugger. for example, the status (“color”) column. The API playground lists the info like this: { “title”: “Status”, “type”: “color”, “id”: “status”, “value”: “{"index":0,"post_id":null,"changed_at":"2021-08-09T07:23:10.900Z"}”, “text”: “Working on it”, “additional_info”: “{"label":"Working on it","color":"#fdab3d","changed_at":"2021-08-09T07:23:10.900Z"}” }, my debugger shows the following in the value field: value: { label: { index: 0, text: “Working on it”, style: { color: “#fdab3d”, border: “#E99729”, var_name: “orange”, }, }, post_id: null, } note that via the api playground, it

Hi 👋 I know it has to be something obvious, and that it’s my fault but for the life of me I can’t get items_by_column_values to return any items. I’m using the API explorer and this is my query: { items_by_column_values(board_id: 266640420, column_id: "link3", column_value: "helpscout", state: all, column_type: "link") { id name } } I’ve checked the board id, and column id and data a hundred times 😦 And that same query on monday.com returns tens of items. Thank you! edit: just to be clear, I’m not getting any errors but an empty data set: { "data": { "items_by_column_values": [] }, "account_id": 4243510 }

Hi dear Community! I’m very new to monday.com. I want to develop some boards in the future, but I’m stuck at the beginning. I saw that for an own App, I have to “run the command scaffold in your command line” After some searches, I found this forum topic. So, for the command to be done, I have to have NodeJS and/or NPM on my Windows? What else do I need for monday.com before start developing? Sorry for my english. Thank you for any help! Chris

Hello monday.com community! We at Trix Solutions are excited to announce the beta release of Moncli v2! We have put a great deal of work into simplifying existing pain-points and providing some awesome new features that will simplify your development experience! Firstly, we have largely redone how we handle column values. With v2, all column values are retrieved as their corresponding Python native type or class using only the value property. They can be set with the same data type or , in some cases, with a convertable data type like a simple string. Take the following code retrieving a date column as an example. item = client.get_items(ids=[12345678], limit=1, get_column_values=True)[0] date_value = item.column_values['Date'] print(date_value.value) # Returns datetime.datetime(2021, 11, 15, 0, 0) # Update value with simple string date_value.value = '2021-11-16'

hi, I need to create setting view for board view app, How I can send dynamic data to feilds, and create a custom dropdown.

I wanted to make an integration with Monday.com which will extract audit logs through API in JSON format file & wanted to place it on SFTP automatically not manually. Is that possible ? Wanted to know the best practice also for the same.

I’m building a search engine that my customers can use to search their Monday items and other apps in one place. Some of my customers are on Monday’s enterprise plan, so I need to be able to test that my integration works with all the enterprise features. Is there a Monday sandbox account I can use to test that’s as close as possible to the enterprise plan features? Thanks!

Hi - Can I update column description via Monday.com API? Trying to build dynamic forms and the only issue I’m having is I am not able to find documentation on updating column description via API.

Hello, everyone, I was playing around with the activity_logs request in the API, but for some reason, it appears to return activity logs from today. I tried to set the “from” and “to” parameters to contain a wider time range, but it never returns logs else than today. Does anybody else have the same issue and/or know how it could be fixed? I was attempting to build a simple dashboard widget that would tell me which days I’ve been active, but as no activity logs from previous are shown through the API (it does show them when looking manually on the board’s activity log), I really don’t know how to retrieve that info. Thanks in advance! Fernando

Is it possible to delete a board column through the api? We can create a column through mutation { create_column } but I have not been able to find a way to delete a column

Hi all! I’m currently building an integration that synchronizing between mirrored items’ updates. It triggers when an update is created, and I wondered if there’s a way to trigger my integration when a update is replayed. Is there such trigger? and if not, is it possible to build one? Thank you!

Hi, Is it possible to have a monday.com dashboard fed by data synced from a third party app REST API ? If yes, a few links with practical examples would be great, as I am brand new to this and I have been unable to find any so far. Thanks Pierre

Hello, I’m trying to use the API to create new item to an existing board. I used the create_item function found in the documentation, but unfortunately, my item was created but without the columns I provided. Here’s my query mutation ($board: Int!, $col:JSON, $group: String) { create_item (board_id: $board, group_id: $group, item_name: "incieeedent test", column_values: $col) { id } } And here how I passed my columns: { ... "col": "{\\"Action\\": \\"foo\\"}", ... } If I try to remove the " then I have a 500 error status. Any tips on how to send columns values? Thanks!
