Create item column_values with emails and other non-text fields
Hey guys. This post is for those who, like me, is confused about the monday create_item mutation, specifically the column_values parameter, allowing to set values for other columns than the default name column.
For me it worked just fine to set any text field like this; {"field": "value"}, and that’s as far as the Monday API documentation goes, but if you want to fill non-normal fields, like email or phone, the format is different, like this;
{"email": { "text": "text to appear in the column - often the email", "email": "test@test.com" }}
And for the phone field format, it should look like this;
{"phone": { "text": "text to appear in the column (phone numer...?)", "phone": "+123123123" }}
