Learn how to filter by and read the vote column on monday boards using the platform API
The vote column allows board subscribers and team members to vote for items. You can filter by and read the vote column via the API, but you cannot update or clear it.
Filter by the vote column
Using the items_page
object, you can easily filter a board's items by specific columns or column values. The table below contains the vote column's supported operators and compare values.
Operators | Compare values |
---|---|
any_of | "No votes" |
not_any_of | "No votes" |
is_empty | null |
is_not_empty | null |
Examples
The following example returns all items on the specified board where user 123456 voted in the vote column.
query {
boards (ids: 1234567890) {
items_page (query_params: {rules: [{column_id: "vote", compare_value: [123456], operator:any_of}]}) {
items {
id
name
}
}
}
}
Read the vote column
You can query the vote column using the column_values
object that enables you to return column-specific subfields by sending a fragment in your query. Values for the vote column are of the VoteValue
type.
query {
items (ids:[1234567890, 9876543210]) {
column_values {
... on VoteValue {
vote_count
voter_ids
}
}
}
}
