Our app Columns auto-link is about to be released to monday.com marketplace and is ready for you feedback.
Columns auto-link functions like v-lookup. It helps keep data across multiple boards aligned while saving the time of manual linking and keeping you safe from data alignment errors. It help building complex solutions that up until now requires manual linking.
Here is a video showing how to link high-level resources board with low-level project board for automatically connect hours worked with cost without the need to manually link it.

Wondering if you plan to add to conditions for this.
Essentially this is index match in excel
To be clear.
Column 1 = customer
Column 2 = category
Column 3 = hourly rate (which varies based on column 1 abs 2 combined)
Seems you have the making of this but need to add into the view the ability to to search based on more than one parameter.
Yes Neal. This is planned.
any timeline on that @Nir-Jetpack
BTW bit of feedback seems to not always update when adding a new line, I have to type something in the linked column to trigger it
Aprt from that seems to work well and when you have the multi condition links I will look to integrate properly into our workflow
Hi @Nir-Jetpack I just installed it but it doesn’t seem to update. Any known issues ongoing for the moment? Contact me directly if you want me to send you a screen recording.
Also, any plans to support a “connect board” column as a target column? This would be really useful for the workflow for one of my customers, so when a new item is created or a unique identifier it contains is updated, the link to the correct item in the parent board is automatically filled thus linking other data.
@Nir-Jetpack HI! i want to pay for one month, but when i go to your website it says Error establishing a database connection.
lmk when you have fixed it please
@Yu1992 sorry. missed this message. this was resolved long time ago. pleas elet me know if there is anything else we can do to help.
@Nir-Jetpack
we noticed an error while using the vlookup function (we are using it for inventory keeping) .
Once the link was made between two items in two different boards, we realized that when a sale was eliminated, the link wasnt and the stock was still being affected by a sale that was no longer existent.
The only way to delete it was to search for that specific sale and deselect it.

Please let us know if you’ve encountered this error.
Hi. If this issue persists, can you do a loom video and share using our support form?
@Nir-Jetpack This looks great, it could solve the problem I’ve been banging my head against for the last hour. But in case it’s useful feedback at this point I don’t feel I can justify the expense - for our little company we’d be spending more on this app than we spend for our main Monday.com subscription. I know it’s tricky, because for a large company with lots of users this might be a small expense, but I can’t see a way for you to differentiate.
The app doesn’t support Files column that contain files over 10 MB. This is a huge deal for us. Is this going to be fixed?
@Nir-Jetpack
Please can you assist. Im using the Vlookup function and its inconsistent - sometimes it automatically returns the correct value - and sometimes it just does not automate and the I have to go into VLOOKUP and click activate on existing items. Why does it not automate all the time - this is from Form Submissions
Hi @Patswaz please use this form to create a support ticket and we’ll do anything to help ASAP

This is a good app, but at $45/month, it is way overpriced in my opinion.
Hi @bysam thank you for your feedback. We do have discounts for startsups and NGOs. You can send a private message if you want to hear more.
Hi @Patswaz sorry about the inconvenience. Can you create a support ticket using this form so we can learn more about your issue and help fix?

No, thank you. I was just providing feedback as a Monday.com user. We have other paid plugins as well as some custom integrations. It is clear a lot of time was put into this, especially considering Monday could roll this feature out at any moment.
I do see some valid use cases for this, even ones that might save a significant headache when managing multiple boards. But even if I were to recreate unique boards for each customer where I would need an unlimited amount of boards, $660/year or $65/month is significant cost for a one trick plugin.
I hope for your sake, others don’t see it the way I do.
I am really not intending to criticize your work, as the quick trial solved my issue in under 2 minutes. I am however, criticizing your pricing structure.
Thanks @bysam for the feedback and sorry for the late reply. We do offer discounts so if this is still valid we can discuss. email me at niro@jetpackapps.co
