Integrations in monday are automated data flows between monday and a third-party system. You will build one or more blocks which users can combine to make sophisticated data flows.

Anatomy of an integration

Each integration is made up of blocks connected in sequence:

• Trigger block: The starting point that listens for a specific event (e.g., form submission).
• Action blocks: Tasks that run in response to the trigger, executing actions on behalf of the user.

Each block passes data forward upon execution using output fields, which become input fields for the next block.

Choose an integration app feature

Integrations are a general category that represents two different app features: monday workflows and sentence builder. Both features work the same under the hood, but they appear in different parts of the platform.

monday workflows

For flexibility: Tools for power users to orchestrate sophisticated sequences of actions.

New

Sentence builder

For simplicity: Basic two-step templates that are quick and intuitive to set up.

Tip: Set up an integration before building your own

We recommend spending a few minutes creating automations and integrations in the monday UI before you develop your own. Read a knowledgebase article or complete the automations course in the monday academy.
