🚧This is an internal UI component. It is called automatically by the Platform MCP server — do not call it directly.

show-table renders a board as an interactive table in the chat interface, letting users see and interact with their board data without leaving the conversation. The MCP server invokes this tool automatically when a user asks to display, view, or visualize a board in tabular form.

You can optionally pass filter rules to narrow the displayed items. If using filters, you must call get_board_info first to retrieve the boardContextToken required for filtering to work correctly. After any update to an item, the server will automatically re-invoke show-table to refresh the view.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
boardId	`string`	Yes	The ID of the board to display as a table.
currentlySelectedItemIdForShowingUpdates	`string`	No	The ID of the item whose updates should be expanded in the table view.
filters	`array`	No	Array of filter rules to apply. Each filter requires `columnId` and `compareValue`, plus an optional `operator` (defaults to `any_of`) and `compareAttribute`. Requires `get_board_info` to be called first.
filtersOperator	`string`	No	How multiple filters are combined. Either `"and"` (all filters must match) or `"or"` (any filter must match). Defaults to `"and"`.

Supported filter operators: any_of, not_any_of, is_empty, is_not_empty, greater_than, greater_than_or_equals, lower_than, lower_than_or_equal, between, contains_text, not_contains_text, contains_terms, starts_with, ends_with, within_the_next, within_the_last

Example

Display a board as a table:

{
  "boardId": "12406666"
}

Display the same board with only items where the status column is "Done":

{
  "boardId": "12406666",
  "filters": [
    {
      "columnId": "status",
      "compareValue": 1,
      "operator": "any_of"
    }
  ],
  "filtersOperator": "and"
}

Programmatic equivalent

You can retrieve board data directly through the monday.com GraphQL API using the boards query with items_page:

query {
  boards(ids: [12406666]) {
    name
    columns { id title type }
    items_page(limit: 50) {
      items {
        id
        name
        column_values { id text value }
      }
    }
  }
}

For full filtering options, see the Items query reference in the monday.com API docs.
