Description
The Monday Board Items entity represents tasks or work units (items) in a Monday.com board. Each item can have multiple columns with values like status, priority, people, and dates.
The Monday Board Items activity enables workflows to fetch, create, delete, or batch-create items on Monday.com boards. It supports flexible mapping of column data, making it suitable for task automation and integration with external data sources.
Use case: Tasks from an Excel sheet or a database can be created as board items using this activity. Columns like status, deadline, and owner can be mapped using Column Values or Column Values Mapping. The output items can then be synced into dashboards or tracked for project progress.
