New ability to query user profile custom fields

API version: 2025-04

We've recently added two new fields to the users object, making it easier to query and manage custom fields in the user profile:

  1. custom_field_metas: Retrieves metadata about the custom field, including its type, description, and whether or not it is editable
  2. custom_field_values: Fetches the values users input into the custom field

The example below retrieves the custom fields' type, description, id, and editability using the custom_field_metas field. It also retrieves the fields' meta ID and value using the custom_field_values field.

query {
  users (ids: 1234567) {
    custom_field_metas { 
      field_type
      description
      id 
      editable
    }
    custom_field_values {
      custom_field_meta_id
      value
    }
  }
}

New max_units field on app subscription queries

API version: 2025-04

You can now query the max_units field on app_subscription queries.

  • For seat-based apps, this will return the maximum number of seats allowed.
  • For feature-based apps, this will return null.
query {
  app_subscription {
    billing_period
    days_left
    is_trial
    plan_id
    renewal_date
    max_units
  }
}

Updated IP limit error handling

If you reach the IP limit, you will receive the following updated error message. Wait for the duration specified in the retry_in_seconds fields before retrying your request. 

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "IP rate limit exceeded",
      "extensions": {
        "code": "IP_RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED",
        "retry_in_seconds": 30
      }
    }
  ]
}

Hotfix: Changes to subitems queries

API version: 2024-10 and later

To help increase performance and provide consistent results for the subitems query, we have changed the way we return results and fetch subitems via the existing query. The following fixes have been introduced:

  • Empty result for subitems on a deleted board: When querying the subitems of a deleted board, the API will now return an empty result.
  • Subitems field limit: A new field-level limit has been introduced when querying the subitems field. If this limit is exceeded, the following errors will be returned, depending on the API version you're using:
{
  "data": {
    "items": [
      {
        "subitems": null
      }
    ]
  },
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "Concurrency limit exceeded for the field",
      "locations": [
        {
          "line": 1,
          "column": 25
        }
      ],
      "path": [
        "items",
        0,
        "subitems"
      ],
      "extensions": {
        "code": "FIELD_LIMIT_EXCEEDED",
        "status_code": 429,
        "retry_in_seconds": 15,
        "error_data": {
          "entity": "subitems"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "Concurrency limit exceeded for the field",
      "locations": [
        {
          "line": 1,
          "column": 25
        }
      ],

New update user attributes mutation

API version: 2025-04

You can now update one or multiple users' attributes through the update_multiple_users mutation. 

mutation {
  update_multiple_users (
    user_updates: [
      { 
        user_id: 12345678, 
        user_attribute_updates: {birthday: "1985-06-01", email: "user12345678@monday.com"}
      },
      { 
        user_id: 87654321, 
        user_attribute_updates: {birthday: "1975-01-20", email: "user87654321@monday.com"}
      }
    ]
  ) {
    updated_users {
      name
      birthday
      email
      id
    }
    errors {
      message
      code
      user_id
    }
  }
}

Deprecated: Sending variables as a JSON string

API version: 2025-04

Variables can now only be sent as a JSON object instead of a JSON string. Queries using JSON string variables will fail. This update impacts all users and queries where the variables were previously sent as a string.

Check out the example below of the same query before and after this change: 

{
  "query": "query GetBoardItems($boardId: [ID!]) { boards(ids: $boardId) { items_page(limit: 1) { cursor items { id subitems { id name column_values { column { title } text ... on MirrorValue { display_value } ... on BoardRelationValue { linked_item_ids linked_items { name } } } } } } } }",
  "variables": {
    "boardId": 7670657643
  }
}

{
  "query": "query GetBoardItems($boardId: [ID!]) { boards(ids: $boardId) { items_page(limit: 1) { cursor items { id subitems { id name column_values { column { title } text ... on MirrorValue { display_value } ... on BoardRelationValue { linked_item_ids linked_items { name } } } } } } } }",
  "variables": "{\"boardId\":7670657643}"
}

Hotfix: Updated `create_webhook` errors

API version: 2024-10 and later

The create_webhook mutation now returns InvalidArgumentException errors when:

  • the board ID is not found
  • a subitem board ID is passed

Check out the sample error responses below: 

{
  "data": {
    "create_webhook": null
  },
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "Board not found",
      "locations": [
        {
          "line": 1,
          "column": 10
        }
      ],
      "path": [
        "create_webhook"
      ],
      "extensions": {
        "code": "InvalidArgumentException",
        "status_code": 200,
        "error_data": {
          "board_id": 1186075578
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

{
  "data": {
    "create_webhook": null
  },
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "Creating webhook on subitems board isn't allowed",
      "locations": [
        {
          "line": 1,
          "column": 10
        }
      ],
      "path": [
        "create_webhook"
      ],
      "extensions": {
        "code": "InvalidArgumentException",
        "status_code": 200,
        "error_data": {
          "board_id": 118607557
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

New `end_date` field on app subscription details object

API version: 2025-04

The new end_date field on the app subscription details object allows you to query the date an inactive subscription ended. It returns null for any subscriptions with an active status. 

query {
  app_subscriptions (app_id: 1234567890) {
    cursor
    total_count 
    subscriptions {
      account_id
      monthly_price
      currency
      status
      end_date
    }
  }
}
