The new monday code scheduler allows you to schedule cron jobs that automatically execute on a defined schedule (e.g., every week at 10 AM). This is ideal for automating recurring operations, such as backing up the database at midnight or generating reports every Friday at 5 PM.

To get started, simply create an endpoint in your backend that performs your desired logic, configure the job using our CLI, and our scheduler will handle the execution for you.

Check out our documentation for all the details, including multi-region support and how to develop, test, and deploy these scheduled endpoints using the new CLI commands!

We’ve upgraded monday’s OAuth flow to prevent admins from getting stuck when an app hasn't been installed yet. This update helps boost conversion rates, reduce support, and get customers connected to your app faster.

By adding the query parameter force_install_if_needed=true to your authorization-request redirect URL, monday will automatically:

• Detect when the app isn’t installed
• Prompt the admin to install it
• Continue to the OAuth consent step once installation is complete

Note: An admin must still manually install the app since automated installation requests aren't yet supported. Be sure to update your UI or messaging accordingly (e.g., “Ask an admin to install the app first”).

Example request

GET https://auth.monday.com/oauth2/authorize  
  ?client_id=<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>  
  &redirect_uri=https://yourapp.com/oauth/callback  
  &scope=  
  &state=<CSRF_TOKEN>  
  &force_install_if_needed=true

Next steps

1. Add force_install_if_needed=true to your authorization redirect URL.
2. Test the flow on an account where the app isn't installed yet.
3. Update any setup guides, tooltips, or in-app copy to reflect the simplified flow. Remember to clarify that the admin installation is still required!

You can now manage user tokens and credentials for monday workflows using the new credentials app feature. This makes it easy to connect to third-party services with minimal code. The framework takes care of authentication flows and credential storage, so you can focus on building flexible, user-friendly solutions.

As part of our ongoing Disaster Recovery project, we will be performing scheduled maintenance on Sunday, June 8, 3:00-5:00 am EST | 9:00-11:00 am CET, which will result in approximately 2 hours of downtime for secure storage on monday code.

This maintenance is necessary to migrate our Disaster Recovery setup to a multi-region infrastructure. This upgrade will help us:

• Reduce downtime in the event of disasters
• Resume normal operations more quickly
• Ensure business continuity for your apps
• Align monday code with enterprise-grade standards

With the new async action feature, you can run workflow builder action blocks asynchronously—freeing up time to perform complex operations, prevent duplication, avoid unnecessary retries, and improve visibility into your workflows. Learn more about asynchronous action blocks here!

We've updated the security and compliance questionnaire with new questions that highlight key security insights. These will help you build trust and improve visibility on your app's listing page.

If you've submitted it before, we recommend updating your responses by submitting a new questionnaire. If not, now's a great time to fill it out for the first time! Learn how here.

We’ve recently updated the requirements for apps to qualify for the marketplace Shield Badge. You can review the revised criteria and browse frequently asked questions in our documentation.

Marketplace apps are now ranked using a new weighted formula that takes into account:

• Rating quality (average score)
• Rating quantity (number of reviews)
• The overall average rating of all apps (as a baseline)

This formula determines the order in which apps appear in the marketplace. Previously, the ranking algorithm only considered the average rating, which didn’t fully reflect an app's quality or usage. The updated formula delivers:

• Fairer rankings for high-performing apps
• Increased user trust in rating-based sorting
• Incentive for developers to collect more feedback
• Alignment with industry standards for app marketplaces

Marketplace users can now view full textual reviews for apps—not just the average rating. These reviews appear in a new Reviews tab on each app's listing page. Developers can also respond to reviews through the Developer Center, creating a two-way feedback loop with customers.

This update promotes transparency and empowers users to make more informed decisions. It helps:

• Increase user confidence and trust in apps
• Promote direct interactions between customers and developers
• Encourage users to leave reviews and feedback
• Strengthen the overall marketplace ecosystem
• Align with industry marketplace standards
