Hi monday.com dev community 👋
Sharing a new app from LupApps: Column Clone & Sync
THE PROBLEM
Formula, 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
-
33 source column types → 9 target types
-
Formula → Date, Numbers, Text, Status — results where you actually need them
-
Mirror → all 9 target types — no more read-only dead ends
-
Timeline → separate Date columns — start & end split instantly
-
Connected Boards → Text
-
Supports both one-time copy and ongoing sync
TECHNICAL DETAILS
-
Column extension architecture (not board-level automation)
-
Event-driven sync (no polling)
-
Runs fully inside monday.com infrastructure — no external data processing
-
Flat-rate pricing — no per-operation metering

We’d love feedback from other builders — especially around edge cases in column type conversions.
