In API versions 2024-04 and later, you can create a doc column using the create_column mutation.

mutation {
  create_column (board_id: 1234567890, column_type: doc, title: "Task info") {
    id
  }
}
let query = 'mutation {  create_column (board_id: 1234567890, column_type: doc, title: "Task info") { id }}';

fetch ("https://api.monday.com/v2", {
  method: 'post',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization' : 'YOUR_API_KEY_HERE'
   },
   body: JSON.stringify({
     'query' : query
   })
  })
   .then(res => res.json())
   .then(res => console.log(JSON.stringify(res, null, 2)));

In API versions 2024-04 and later, you can filter the date column with multiple exact dates. In the query, your compare value must include:

  • Each date in "YYYY-MM-DD" format, separated by commas
  • One "EXACT" compare value for each date (e.g., if you have three dates, you need three "EXACT" compare values), separated by commas
query {
  boards(ids: 1234567890) {
    items_page(
      query_params: {rules: [ {
        column_id: "date",
        compare_value: ["EXACT", "2024-04-01", "EXACT", "2023-04-01"],
        operator: any_of}]}
    ) {
      items {
        id
        name
      }
    }
  }
}

We recently introduced a change to all API versions that fixes an earlier regression. Mutations with the column_values argument now accept both string IDs and integers. Previously, the argument only accepted integers.

This update impacts the following columns:

Both code samples below are examples of correct usage:

mutation {
  change_multiple_column_values (
    item_id:9876543210, 
    board_id:1234567890, 
    column_values: "{\"dropdown\": {\"ids\":[\"1\"]}}") {
    id
  }
}
mutation {
  change_multiple_column_values (
    item_id:9876543210, 
    board_id:1234567890, 
    column_values: "{\"dropdown\": {\"ids\":[1]}}") {
    id
  }
}

We're excited to announce the new platform API CLI and client SDK that make interacting with the API easier than ever!

CLI

The API JavaScript CLI breaks down the initial configuration for working with the platform API. It automates the setup of a development environment for working with the API and is designed to help developers quickly start projects with pre-configured tools and settings. You can access the CLI here.

SDK

The new API JavaScript SDK simplifies interactions with the platform API. It breaks down complex GraphQL queries by providing simple operations for widely used endpoints, like fetching board data and creating items. You can access the SDK here.

As part of a gradual multi-product migration, users will eventually be able to return the ID of the main workspace instead of null (read more here).

We added the is_default_workspace field to API versions 2024-04 and later to help identify which workspace is the main one. This field returns true if a workspace is the main one or false if it isn't.

query {
  workspaces {
    id
    is_default_workspace
    name
  }
}

We recently added the relative_to and position_relative_method arguments to the create_item mutation to specify the location of the new item.

  • relative_to: Accepts an item ID to specify which item to create the new one in relation to.
  • position_relative_method: Accepts enum values to specify if the new item should be created above or below the relative_to value.

These arguments are only available in API versions 2024-04 and later.

mutation {
  create_item (board_id: 1234567890, group_id: "group_one", item_name: "new item", position_relative_method: before_at, relative_to: 9876543210, column_values: "{\"date\":\"2023-05-25\"}") {
    id
  }
}

Our API documentation has a new start page! We built it to improve the navigation experience of our docs.

PS: This is part of a larger effort to improve the usability of our docs. If you have any feedback or a wishlist for our documentation, please share it in the developer community!

We recently added a new argument and a new field on the app_installs object. These are only available in API versions 2024-04 and later.

  • The account_id argument filters app installations by a specific account using the account ID.
  • The permissions field returns the required and approved scopes for an app installation.
query {
  app_installs (app_id: 123456789, account_id: 98766543210) {
    app_id
    timestamp
    app_install_account {
      id
    }
    app_install_user {
      id
    }
    app_version {
      major
      minor
      patch
      type
      text
    }
    permissions {
      approved_scopes
      required_scopes
    }
  }
}

In API versions 2024-04 and later, the kind field accepted enum values on version and versions queries have changed.

The table below shows the accepted enums in versions 2024-01 and earlier, as well as those in versions 2024-04 and later. This is considered a breaking change, so please act accordingly.
