The monday integration helps automate and connect your business workflows in monday to the large ecosystem of connectors available in Power Automate. Use it to automatically create a variety of objects in monday, such as items, boards, updates, notifications, subitems, columns, groups, and workspaces. Trigger flows in Power Automate based on a variety of actions taken in monday, such as item creation, item column changes, or updates.

Prerequisites

In order to use this connector, you will need the following:

An active monday.com account
Have installed the Microsoft Power Automate app from the monday.com marketplace and subscribed to one of the plans
A Power Automate plan

How to get credentials

You need an active monday.com account. You also need to have installed the Microsoft Power Automate app in monday.com and signed up for a subscription to it.

Once this has been done, sign in to the monday connector in Power Automate with your monday.com credentials. This will authenticate your connection between monday.com and Power Automate to allow you to start using the connector.

Get started with your connector

In monday.com, search the App marketplace for the Microsoft Power Automate app and add it to your monday account.
If desired, add the Power Automate App Usage board view. The Power Automate App Usage view can be used to track the number of executions for each trigger/action for this connector to help avoid reaching your subscription limit.
In Power Automate, when adding a monday action or trigger, search for the "monday" connector.
After adding the monday action/trigger, sign in and authorize the app to start using it.

Popular use cases

Below are some popular use cases along with the action/trigger used for each:

When a Microsoft Form is submitted, create an item in monday.com - Create an item in monday
Add created items in monday.com to an Excel spreadsheet - When an item is created
Trigger an email sending flow from a monday.com item - When a column changes
Automatically schedule an event or appointment from a monday.com item - When a column changes
When you receive a specific type of email in Outlook, create an item in monday.com - Create an item in monday
When a work item is created in Azure DevOps, create a monday.com item - Create an item in monday

Example: Adding Microsoft Form submissions to monday.com

This example assumes you've already followed the "Get started with your connector" section above.

To capture Microsoft Form submissions and automatically add them to a board in monday.com, follow the steps below to get started. After following the steps below, your flow should look similar to the following image:

Example to create an item from a Microsoft Form submission

In Power Automate, click on the "New flow" button, then click on "Automated cloud flow" to create an automated cloud flow.
Add a name for your flow (e.g. Add form submissions to monday) in the "Flow name" input.
Type "form" into the search box to find the trigger labeled "When a new response is submitted" (from Microsoft Forms), and click on it to select it.
Click the "Create" button to create an automated flow, which will take you to the flow editor.
In the "When a new response is submitted" trigger, pick your form in the dropdown.
Click the "New Step" button and in the search bar, search for the action "Get response details" (by Microsoft Forms). This action is needed to get the form data. Click on it to select it.
In the Form Id input, select the same form in the dropdown as you had previously selected in the action above it.
Click into the "Response Id" input. This will bring up a Dynamic Content window, which will allow you to select the "Response Id" field from the previous "When a new response is submitted" action. Select the "Response Id" dynamic content field.
Click the "New Step" button and in the search bar, search for the "monday" connector.
Click on the "monday" connector to select it. This will bring up a variety of monday actions that can be performed after a form submission.
Scroll down and click on the action "Create an item" to select it. This will add the monday action to your flow.
Next we will be filtering down the specific workspace/board/group we want the item to be added to. Select a workspace from the Workspace dropdown. Then select a board from the Board dropdown. Then select a group from the Group dropdown. Doing this will automatically populate all the supported fields that are available for your new item.
Fill out the Item Name. This can be text you add manually or dynamic content from the "Get response details" action.
Fill out any other desired fields, using the "Get response details" dynamic content. As before, you can get to this by clicking into the field inputs, which brings up a "Dynamic content" popup with the available fields from your form. Doing this, you can map the fields from each Microsoft Form field into the respective monday.com item columns. Be careful that each field is in the correct data format. The format is outlined in the placeholder text of each input field. For example, dates need to be in a specific format for monday to accept them.
Once you are done, don't forget to click the Save button to save the flow. Once you've done so, any form submissions should show up in your desired monday board/group. If they do not, make sure that you've formatted the field correctly in the format monday expects, as outlined by the placeholder text in each input.

Monitoring app usage

The Microsoft Power Automate app installed from the monday.com marketplace contains a Power Automate App Usage view. This view can be added to a board to track the number of executions of each trigger/action per month. It's useful to make sure you don't exceed your subscription limits. If you need more executions than your subscription currently allows, the board also contains a button to upgrade your plan to a higher tier.

Common errors and remedies

I tried to create an object in monday, for example an item via the "Create an item" action, but I'm not seeing it showing up in monday.com.

If you see an error in Power Automate when executing an action that creates an object, this can occur if your inputs for the monday action are invalid. For example, if you're trying to create an item that contains a checkbox field, the field will only allow the values "Yes" or "No". If you instead put text like "Checked" or "Unchecked", this will not work. For dropdown fields, you must select an item from the dropdown.

Fields in monday are blank even though I added a value for them in a monday action.

This can occur if you didn't use the right format for the field. For example, if in a Date field you put the text "Yesterday", in monday it would show up as blank, since this is not a valid date. Dates need to be in the format YYYY-MM-DD (for example, 2005-12-20). The necessary format for each field is indicated by the placeholder text of the input.

Why are my date/time fields a few hours off?

monday only accepts dates and times in the UTC timezone (also known as GMT or Greenwich Mean Time). Dates you add should be in the UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) timezone.

For example, if you have the following date and time 2020-02-14 7:00 in the EST timezone, it would be 2020-02-14 12:00 in UTC. This is because Eastern Standard Time is 5 hours behind UTC.

Power Automate contains a "Convert time zone" action that might help with converting times you have into UTC.

I uninstalled the Microsoft Power Automate app in monday.com and reinstalled it again. Now it is no longer working and I'm unable to successfully execute actions/triggers in the monday connector. How do I fix the connector?

When the Microsoft Power Automate app is uninstalled and reinstalled, the credentials are reset. To fix the connector, you need to re-authenticate your monday connector in Power Automate.

This can be done by going to Data -> Connections in the Power Automate sidebar. Then find the "monday" connection and click on it. At the top, click the "Switch account" button. This brings up a popup to re-authenticate your connection between monday.com and Power Automate. Click the Authorize button at the bottom of the popup. Your connection should now be restored and your actions/triggers should work again.

I'm seeing a "Not Authenticated" error when executing a monday action/trigger in Power Automate and my actions/triggers have stopped working. How can I fix this?

This can occur when your connection between monday.com and Power Automate has been invalidated. One way this can occur is by uninstalling the Microsoft Power Automate app in monday.com.

To fix this issue, go to Data -> Connections in the Power Automate sidebar. Then find the "monday" connection and click on it. At the top, click the "Switch account" button. This brings up a popup to re-authenticate your connection between monday.com and Power Automate. Click the Authorize button at the bottom of the popup. Your connection should now be restored and your actions/triggers should now work again.

When executing a monday action/trigger in Power Automate, it does not work. I see the error "Your monday.com Power Automate app is over the execution limit. If you need more executions, please purchase a higher plan for the Microsoft Power Automate app in monday.com". How do I fix this?

This occurs when you've used all the executions your Microsoft Power Automate subscription plan in monday.com currently supports. When this happens, actions/triggers will fail to execute until the next month, unless a higher level subscription is purchased.

If you need more executions, you can purchase a higher level subscription to the Microsoft Power Automate app in monday.com. Once you've done so, your actions/triggers should start working again within 5 minutes.
