Automate boards, items, and project updates in Monday.com from your workflows

Monday.com is a work management platform used for project tracking, task management, and team collaboration. The CipherSense Agents Monday.com integration connects to the Monday.com GraphQL API, letting your workflows create and update items, move tasks between groups, post updates, and query board data. Because Monday's entire API is GraphQL, the 'Run GraphQL Query' operation gives you access to any Monday.com capability beyond the built-in operations.

Setup

Generate a Monday.com API token

Log in to Monday.com, click your avatar in the top-right corner, and select 'Developers'. Go to 'My Access Tokens' and click 'Show' next to your personal token. Copy it — treat it like a password.

Monday.com developer centre

Add the integration in CipherSense Agents

Go to Project > Integrations > Add Integration > Monday.com. Paste your API token and click Save & Test. A successful test calls the /v2 endpoint and returns your Monday.com username.

Find your Board ID

The board ID is in the Monday.com URL when you open a board: monday.com/boards/{board_id}. Alternatively, run a 'List Boards' node — it returns each board's id and name.

Discover column IDs before writing

Monday.com column IDs (e.g. 'status', 'date4', 'text0') are internal and differ per board. Run a 'Get Board Schema' node first to list all column IDs and types for a board, then use those IDs in the 'Column Values' field of Create Item and Update Item nodes.

Common Errors

Known errors and how to resolve them.

Invalid or unauthorised API token.Test Connection

Why this happens

The token was copied incorrectly, has been revoked, or belongs to a deactivated account.

How to fix

Regenerate the token from monday.com avatar → Developers → My Access Tokens and update the integration.

Monday.com GraphQL error: InvalidColumnIdExceptionWorkflow Execution

Why this happens

A column ID in 'column_values' does not exist on the target board.

How to fix

Run a 'Get Board Schema' node for the target board to get the correct column IDs, then update the 'Column Values' JSON.

Rate limit exceeded. Reduce request frequency or upgrade your Monday.com plan.Workflow Execution

Why this happens

Monday.com uses complexity-based rate limiting. High-volume workflows can exhaust the per-minute complexity budget.

How to fix

Add delays between nodes, reduce the number of Monday.com nodes per workflow execution, or upgrade to a higher Monday.com plan.

create_item requires a 'board_id'.Workflow Execution

Why this happens

The 'Board ID' field is empty or the upstream variable resolved to an empty string.

How to fix

Enter the board ID directly in the node field, or wire the output of a 'List Boards' node to supply it dynamically.
