Button

Learn how to read the button column on a monday board using the platform API

The button column allows you to perform an action (i.e., move an item to a new group) with just the click of a button. You can read the button column via the API, but you currently cannot filter, update, or clear it.

Read the button column

You can query the button column using the column_values object that enables you to return column-specific subfields by sending a fragment in your query. Values for the button column are of the ButtonValue type. 

query {
  items (ids:[1234567890, 9876543210]) {
    column_values {
      ... on ButtonValue {
        color
        label
      }
    }
  }
}
