Activity logs

Learn how to query activity logs from a monday board using the platform API

Activity logs are records of all activities performed on a board. You can use them to see which actions were performed on your boards, when, and by whom.

Queries

  • Returns an array containing metadata about a collection of activity logs from a specific board
  • Can only be nested within a boards query
  • Limit: up to 10,000 logs total
query {
  boards (ids: 1234567890) {
    activity_logs (from: "2021-07-23T00:00:00Z", to: "2021-07-26T00:00:00Z") {
      id
      event
      data
    }
  }
}

let query = 'query { boards (ids: 1234567890) { activity_logs (from: \"2021-07-23T00:00:00Z\", to: \"2021-07-26T00:00:00Z\") { id event data }}}';


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)));

Arguments

You can use the following argument(s) to reduce the number of results returned in your activity_logs query.

ArgumentDescription
column_ids [String]The specific columns to return events for.
from ISO8601DateTimeFrom timestamp (ISO8601). Without the from or to arguments, the results are returned in reverse chronological order.
group_ids [String]The specific groups to return events for.
item_ids [ID!]The specific items to return events for.
limit IntThe number of activity log events to return. The default is 25.
page IntThe page number to return. Starts at 1.
to ISO8601DateTimeTo timestamp (ISO8601). Without the from or to arguments, the results are returned in reverse chronological order.
user_ids [ID!]The specific users to return events for.

Fields

created_at String!The time of the event in 17-digit unix time.

Created_at field

The timestamps returned by this field are formatted as UNIX time with 17 digits.

To convert the timestamp to UNIX time in milliseconds, divide the 17-digit value by 10,000 and round to the nearest integer. For UNIX time in seconds, divide the value by 10,000,000. 

myDate = new Date(15880281464518396 / 10000)

import pandas as pd  
pd.to_datetime(16155031105053254 / 10000000, unit='s')

<?php
$timestamp=16155031105053254/10000000;
echo gmdate("Y-m-d\TH:i:s\Z", $timestamp);
?>
