Getting started

Before configuring monday.com as a destination in RudderStack, verify if the source platform is supported by Monday by referring to the table below:

Connection Mode	Web	Mobile	Server
Device mode	-	-	-
Cloud mode	Supported	Supported	Supported

To learn more about the difference between cloud mode and device mode in RudderStack, refer to the RudderStack Connection Modes guide.

Once you have confirmed that the source platform supports sending events to monday.com, follow these steps:

From your RudderStack dashboard, add a source. Then, from the list of destinations, select Monday.
Assign a name to the destination and click Continue.

Connection settings

To successfully configure monday.com as a destination, you will need to configure the following settings:

API Token: Enter the API token from your monday.com dashboard.
Board ID: Enter your monday.com board ID.
Group Title: Enter the group title of your board if you want to add an item to a specific group.

For more information on getting these details, refer to the FAQ section below.

Client-side events filtering

This setting lets you specify the event names which should be allowed to flow through to monday.com.

RudderStack will discard the events not included in the allowlist.

Track

You can use the track call to create an item in your board. To do so, you need to specify the Board ID and Columns to property mapping in the dashboard settings.

You can also override the board ID mentioned in the RudderStack dashboard by passing it in the externalId in the track call. A sample track call for the same is shown below:

rudderanalytics.track("create an item", {
  "status": "Done",
  "latitude": "50.32",
  "longitude": "46.32",
  "address": "New York, USA",
  "mobile_number": "+1-202-555-0146",
  "countryShortName": "US"
}, {
  "externalId": [{
    "type": "boardId",
    "id": "3536273222"
  }],
});

The event passed in the track call should be added in the Allowlist connection setting, otherwise it will be discarded.
