What you can automate

What can a monday.com Make integration automate for you?

The monday.com Make integration links your monday.com account to Make, a visual tool where you chain modules (bricks that each do one job) into a scenario, which is the automation itself. Once connected, events on your boards can start a scenario, and your other apps can write back into monday.com, with no code involved.

Requests that file themselves. A web form answer becomes a board item through Create an Item, and Create a Notification alerts whoever is on duty. Nobody retypes a thing, and nothing waits in an inbox.

Boards that report to the rest of the company. The scheduled Watch Board's Items collects new and edited items, so a spreadsheet or a reporting tool stays aligned with the project board without manual exports.

Work that advances by itself. When an invoice gets paid in your accounting app, Move an Item Between Groups shifts the matching item to its Paid group, and Create an Update leaves a written trace on it.

Know the edges before you start. monday.com has no Make an API Call module in Make; the fallback is Execute a GraphQL Query, where you write the request yourself. The app's documentation was unavailable when this page was written, so no limit is quoted here. monday.com also has an n8n node: the monday.com n8n integration page and the n8n vs Make comparison help you weigh both. First time in the editor? The Make training covers the basics step by step.

Connect

How do you connect monday.com to Make?

  1. 01

    Add a monday.com module

    Open a scenario, click the +, type monday.com and pick any of its modules. In the panel that opens, click Create a connection. A connection is your monday.com account linked to Make once, then reused by every monday.com module you add.

  2. 02

    Name it and authorize Make

    Give the connection a name if you want, such as the workspace it belongs to; that helps once several accounts are linked. Then authorize Make on the monday.com page that opens, or paste the key monday.com gives you if Make asks for one.

  3. 03

    Save and check the lists

    Click Save. Back in the module, Make now lists the boards and other objects it can read with this account. If those lists fill up, the connection works and you can move on to building.

First scenario

Your first monday.com scenario in Make

GoalWhen a new item lands on a monday.com board, Make sends a monday.com notification to the teammate in charge.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario, then click the + in the middle of the editor to place the very first module.

  2. 02

    Add the trigger

    Search monday.com and choose Watch Board's Items, the one with the lightning badge. Select your connection, or click Create a connection if this is your first monday.com module.

  3. 03

    Pick the board

    Choose the board to watch from the list Make displays. An intake or request board is a sensible first pick, since receiving new items is its whole purpose.

  4. 04

    Add the notification

    Click the + on the right of the trigger and add Create a Notification. Fill its fields, mapping data from the trigger's bundle so the alert says which item just arrived.

  5. 05

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once, then create a test item on the board. Each module now shows the bundle it handled, so you can read exactly what came in and what went out.

  6. 06

    Switch it on

    Turn the scenario on. With this instant trigger, monday.com calls Make when an item is created; the 15-minute default clock only governs scheduled triggers.

Triggers

Which monday.com events can start a scenario?

13 modules start a scenario when something happens in monday.com. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by monday.com as soon as it happens.

monday.com1Watch Board's Column Values

Watch Board's Column Values

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when the board's column values have changed.”

Get a bundle (one item passed from a module to the next) the moment a column value changes on the board you choose. A status that flips or an owner who changes is enough to start your scenario.

How it fires
instant: monday.com calls Make through a webhook as soon as the change happens (lightning badge).
When to use it
the whole board is your pipeline and every edit matters, like a sales board where each stage change should reach your CRM.
Watch out
it listens to the full board, so a busy board sends many bundles, and each later module spends one operation (one run of one module, what Make counts on your plan) per bundle. Watch Item's Column Value narrows it to one item.
monday.com2Watch Board's Items

Watch Board's Items

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a board's item is created.”

Receive each new item as soon as someone adds it to the board, ready to be copied, announced or enriched further down the scenario. This one reports creations only, not later edits.

How it fires
instant: monday.com pings Make through a webhook the moment the item exists (lightning badge).
When to use it
a request board where each new ticket should open a task in another tool or alert the person on duty right away.
Watch out
a second module carries the exact same name but runs on a schedule and also catches updates. Look at the badge before you pick, because the two behave differently.
monday.com3Watch Board's Items

Watch Board's Items

Scheduled trigger

In Make“Triggers when an item is created/updated in the given board.”

Collect the items created or modified on a board since the previous check, in one batch. It suits flows where edits matter as much as new rows and a short delay is acceptable.

How it fires
scheduled: Make checks monday.com on the scenario's schedule, every 15 minutes by default (clock badge).
When to use it
keeping a spreadsheet or a reporting tool aligned with a project board, where both fresh tasks and changed ones have to follow.
Watch out
it shares its name with the instant version, which only reports creations. The clock badge confirms you picked this one; on the Free plan, checks can't be closer than 15 minutes apart.
monday.com4Watch Board's Items by Column Values

Watch Board's Items by Column Values

Scheduled trigger

In Make“Triggers when an item with the given value is created/updated in the given board.”

Pick up only the items whose column holds the value you set, whether they were just created or just updated. The scenario stays quiet on everything else in the board.

How it fires
scheduled: Make checks monday.com on the scenario's schedule (clock badge).
When to use it
start work only on items marked a certain way, such as a deal set to Won or a bug flagged Critical, while the rest of the board keeps moving untouched.
Watch out
before switching the scenario on, set that value on a test item and click Run once; an empty result usually means the value you typed and the one on the board differ.
monday.com5Watch Board's Subscribers

Watch Board's Subscribers

Scheduled trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new user is subscribed to a given board.”

Find out who has just been subscribed to a board, one bundle per new person, so project onboarding can follow automatically instead of depending on someone's memory.

How it fires
scheduled: Make checks monday.com on the scenario's schedule (clock badge).
When to use it
a client board where every new subscriber should get a welcome message or be added to the matching channel in your team chat.
Watch out
it is built around new subscriptions. When you need the complete roster of a board rather than the latest arrivals, List Board Subscribers gives you everyone at once.
monday.com6Watch Board's Updates

Watch Board's Updates

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new board's update is created.”

Catch every new update posted on a board the instant it lands, so the conversation your team holds inside monday.com can travel to people who never open it.

How it fires
instant: monday.com notifies Make by webhook right after the update is posted (lightning badge).
When to use it
mirror updates from a client-facing board into a team chat channel, or log them in a shared document read by account managers.
Watch out
it covers the whole board. When only one item's thread matters, Watch Item's Updates is the narrower option, though that one runs on a schedule rather than instantly.
monday.com7Watch Events

Watch Events

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new event occurs in Monday.”

Listen to monday.com events as they occur and hand each one to your scenario as a bundle. Treat it as the general-purpose door when none of the more specific watchers fits your case.

How it fires
instant: monday.com calls Make through a webhook as soon as the event happens (lightning badge).
When to use it
you want to react to a kind of change that the other twelve triggers don't name, and you're ready to read the incoming bundle to see what it holds.
Watch out
click Run once and cause a test event in monday.com first. The bundle it displays becomes your reference for mapping the following modules.
monday.com8Watch Group's Items

Watch Group's Items

Scheduled trigger

In Make“Triggers when an item is created/updated in the given group.”

Keep an eye on one group instead of the whole board: items created or edited inside it come back to Make, and the other groups are left out.

How it fires
scheduled: Make checks monday.com on the scenario's schedule, every 15 minutes by default (clock badge).
When to use it
a board split into sections like Incoming, In progress and Done, where only the Done group should feed invoicing or a client report.
Watch out
choose the board first, then the group, from the lists Make shows once the connection exists.
monday.com9Watch Item's Column Value

Watch Item's Column Value

Scheduled trigger

In Make“Triggers when an item's column value is changed.”

Follow a single item and learn when the value in one of its columns changes. It is the precise tool when one deal, one project or one ticket deserves close tracking.

How it fires
scheduled: Make checks monday.com on the scenario's schedule (clock badge), so a change surfaces at the next check rather than the second it happens.
When to use it
a flagship project whose budget or deadline column should alert finance whenever someone edits it.
Watch out
for changes across an entire board, Watch Board's Column Values reacts instantly and spares you one scenario per item.
monday.com10Watch Item's Name

Watch Item's Name

Instant trigger

In Make“Triggers when an item's name on a board has changed.”

Be told as soon as an item gets renamed on a board, so any copy of that item living in another tool, a folder, an invoice or a calendar entry, can be renamed too instead of drifting apart.

How it fires
instant: monday.com alerts Make by webhook as soon as the name changes (lightning badge).
When to use it
item names double as project or client names elsewhere, and a rename in monday.com should ripple out.
Watch out
it reacts to names only. A status or date change on the same item needs one of the column value watchers instead.
monday.com11Watch Item's Updates

Watch Item's Updates

Scheduled trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new item's update is created.”

Gather the new updates posted on one specific item, so the discussion around a key deliverable can be archived, summarized or forwarded without anyone scrolling the thread.

How it fires
scheduled: Make checks monday.com on the scenario's schedule (clock badge).
When to use it
an item that tracks a contract or a product launch, where every comment should also reach a stakeholder who works outside monday.com.
Watch out
it is scoped to one item by design. To follow updates across a board, Watch Board's Updates covers more ground and fires instantly.
monday.com12Watch Team's Users

Watch Team's Users

Scheduled trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new user has joined the given team.”

Spot each person who joins a given monday.com team and launch their setup from there: access to shared boards, a welcome note, a line in your staff register.

How it fires
scheduled: Make checks monday.com on the scenario's schedule (clock badge).
When to use it
your teams mirror departments, and joining the Support team should subscribe the newcomer to the support boards through Add Board Subscribers.
Watch out
it watches one team at a time. Arrivals across the whole account are the job of Watch Users, which saves you from building one scenario per team.
monday.com13Watch Users

Watch Users

Scheduled trigger

In Make“Triggers when a new user is created.”

Hear about every new user created in your monday.com account, whatever team they end up in. HR or IT gets a single entry point to register the arrival in their own tools.

How it fires
scheduled: Make checks monday.com on the scenario's schedule, every 15 minutes by default (clock badge).
When to use it
you keep a license or equipment tracker outside monday.com, and each new account should add a row there.
Watch out
when only one team concerns you, Watch Team's Users avoids receiving everybody and spending operations on people you would then ignore.
Modules

What can Make do in monday.com?

monday.com gives you 45 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

monday.com1

Add a Column to a Board

Action

In Make“Adds a new column to a specific board.”

Give a board an extra column from inside a scenario, so its structure grows with the process instead of waiting for someone to open the board settings.

When to use it
right after Create a Board or Duplicate a Board, to add the tracking column one particular client or project requires.
Watch out
try it on a test board first, since a new column appears for everyone who works on that board.
monday.com2

Add a File to a File Column Value

Action

In Make“Adds a file to a file column value.”

Attach a file straight into an item's file column, where the team already expects documents, rather than leaving it buried in an email thread or a shared drive.

When to use it
a signed quote comes back from your e-signature tool and belongs on the matching deal item.
Watch out
the file has to come from an earlier module in the scenario, and on the Free plan Make handles files up to 5 MB.
monday.com3

Add a File to an Update

Action

In Make“Adds a file to an existing update.”

Drop a file into an update that already exists, so the attachment sits right beside the comment that explains it. Anyone reading the thread gets the context and the document together.

When to use it
after Create an Update posts a status note, attach the exported report that note refers to.
Watch out
the update must exist first, so place Create an Update or a search for updates earlier in the flow.
monday.com4

Add Board Subscribers

Action

In Make“Adds subscribers to a board by their IDs and the board ID.”

Subscribe one or several people to a board in a single step, using their user IDs, so nobody misses a board they were just assigned to.

When to use it
a new client board is created, and the account manager plus the delivery lead should follow it from the start.
Watch out
it expects IDs, not names. List Users or Get a User placed upstream gives you the IDs to map.
monday.com5

Create a Board

Action

In Make“Creates a new board.”

Spin up a fresh board automatically, for example when a deal is signed in your CRM, so every project starts in its own space without anyone setting it up by hand.

When to use it
one board per client or per event is your habit, and creating each one manually has become a chore.
Watch out
if a model board already exists, Duplicate a Board starts from it rather than from an empty page.
monday.com6

Create a Group

Action

In Make“Creates a new group in a specific board.”

Add a new group to a specific board, so a new sprint, campaign or batch of client work gets its own section without a manual click in monday.com.

When to use it
an event in another tool opens a new phase of work, and the items that follow should land together in one place.
Watch out
when the new section should start from an existing one, Duplicate a Group is the better fit.
monday.com7

Create an Item

Action

In Make“Creates an item by the board ID.”

Add a new item to a board by pointing at the board ID. It is the most direct way to turn an email, a form answer or a CRM deal into a line your team can act on.

When to use it
it is the natural first action of most monday.com scenarios, for instance filing each web form request as an item.
Watch out
once the connection exists, Make lists your boards, so pick from the list rather than pasting an ID by hand.
monday.com8

Create an Item (advanced)

Action

In Make“Creates an item.”

The second module that adds an item to a board. Make's directory says nothing about how it differs from Create an Item, so the only reliable guide is what each one shows you once opened.

When to use it
Create an Item doesn't show a setting you need, and you want to check whether this one does before looking for a workaround.
Watch out
add both to a draft scenario, compare their fields side by side, and keep the simpler one whenever it does the job.
monday.com9

Create a Notification

Action

In Make“Creates a new notification.”

Send a monday.com notification to a teammate, so the alert shows up where they already work instead of in yet another email that gets skimmed.

When to use it
a payment fails in your billing tool and the account owner should hear about it inside monday.com.
Watch out
automatic notifications get ignored when they pile up, so reserve this module for events that truly need a person.
monday.com10

Create an Update

Action

In Make“Creates a new update.”

Post an update on an item, the thread your team reads in monday.com, so information coming from other tools lands where the work is discussed.

When to use it
a customer reply arrives in your helpdesk and should appear on the matching ticket item for everyone to see.
Watch out
map only what a reader needs; a whole bundle pasted as is turns the update into raw data nobody reads.
monday.com11

Create a Subitem

Action

In Make“Creates subitem of an item.”

Hang a subitem under an existing item, turning one line into a set of smaller steps without cluttering the board with extra rows.

When to use it
a new onboarding item appears and should come with its standard sub-tasks: contract, access, kickoff call.
Watch out
the parent item has to exist; chain this module after Create an Item and map the item that module produced.
monday.com12

Create or Get a Tag

Action

In Make“The tags mutation allows you to create new tags or receive their data if they already exist.”

Hand it a tag name and it gives you that tag back, creating it on the fly when it doesn't exist yet. You avoid duplicate tags and always get something usable.

When to use it
incoming leads carry a source or campaign name that should become a tag in monday.com.
Watch out
place it before the module that writes the item, so the tag is ready to be mapped when that module runs.
monday.com13

Delete or Archive an Item

Action

In Make“Deletes or archives an item.”

Take an item off a board, either by deleting it or by archiving it, which keeps your boards focused on the work that is still alive.

When to use it
a deal is marked lost or a ticket closed in another tool, and the matching item no longer belongs on the active board.
Watch out
a wrong mapping removes the wrong item. Test with Run once on a dummy item, and choose between delete and archive deliberately.
monday.com14

Download a File

Action

In Make“Downloads a file by the asset ID.”

Pull a file out of monday.com from its asset ID, so it travels on to storage, email or a document tool as a real file inside the scenario.

When to use it
attachments on items must be backed up in a drive folder or sent to a client at the end of a project.
Watch out
you need the asset ID first, and List Files provides it. On the Free plan, files above 5 MB are out of reach.
monday.com15

Duplicate a Board

Action

In Make“Duplicates a board.”

Copy an existing board so a new project starts from a proven model, with the layout your team already knows by heart.

When to use it
every new client follows the same delivery template, and a signed deal should produce their board without anyone clicking through menus.
Watch out
keep one dedicated template board that nobody works in, so each copy starts clean.
monday.com16

Duplicate a Group

Action

In Make“Duplicates a group.”

Clone a group and get a ready-made section to fill, instead of rebuilding it item by item each time the same kind of work comes back.

When to use it
each campaign reuses the same set of standard items, and the new campaign should begin as a copy of the model group.
Watch out
keep the model group untouched at the bottom of the board so every copy starts from the same base.
monday.com17

Duplicate an Item

Action

In Make“Duplicates an item.”

Make a copy of an item, handy for recurring deliverables that always begin the same way and only differ in a few details.

When to use it
a client renews, and last contract's item is the right starting point for the new one.
Watch out
follow it with Update Column Values of a Specific Item to change dates or owners, otherwise the copy looks identical to the original.
monday.com18

Execute a GraphQL Query

Action

In Make“Performs an arbitrary authorized GraphQL query.”

Send your own GraphQL query to monday.com, within what your connection is authorized to do, when no ready-made module covers the request you have in mind.

When to use it
you need a combination of data the list and get modules don't return, and someone on the team is comfortable with monday.com's API.
Watch out
it is the most technical module of the app; try the ready-made ones first, since they are easier to maintain.
monday.com19

Get a Board

Action

In Make“Returns a board.”

Fetch the details of one board you already know, so later modules can reuse its information in a message, a report or another app.

When to use it
a trigger hands you a board ID and the next step needs the board itself, for a report title or a note to its owner.
Watch out
it returns a single board; to go through several, List Boards is the right tool.
monday.com20

Get a Group

Action

In Make“Returns a group.”

Read one group of a board, for example to know which section an item belongs to before deciding what happens next.

When to use it
a routing scenario needs the group's details to label a message or choose a destination folder.
Watch out
for all the groups of a board at once, List Board's Groups saves you from calling this module again and again.
monday.com21

Get an Item

Action

In Make“Returns an item.”

Load a full item, so later modules can use its details even when the bundle you already hold is thin.

When to use it
an instant trigger fired, and the next step needs the item's status, owner or dates to decide what to do.
Watch out
each call counts as one operation. When a single column is enough, Get an Item's Column Value keeps the mapping lighter.
monday.com22

Get an Item's Column Value

Action

In Make“Gets a column value of an item.”

Read the value of one specific column on an item and nothing else, which keeps the mapping in the next module short and clear.

When to use it
a scenario has to check a status or a due date before choosing its next step.
Watch out
when you need several columns of the same item, Get an Item is the better fit than chaining this module.
monday.com23

Get a Team

Action

In Make“Returns a team.”

Retrieve one monday.com team, so its details can label a message, a report line or a record in another tool.

When to use it
Watch Team's Users reported a newcomer, and the welcome message should mention the team they joined.
Watch out
if you don't have the team's ID yet, run List Teams first to find it.
monday.com24

Get a User

Action

In Make“Returns a user.”

Look up a monday.com user, so their details can feed a message, a contract or a row in another tool instead of a bare number.

When to use it
a trigger gives you a user ID, and your HR spreadsheet wants a readable person, not an identifier.
Watch out
when you don't know the ID yet, List Users helps you find the right person first.
monday.com25

Move an Item Between Groups

Action

In Make“Moves an item between groups in the same board.”

Shift an item into another group of the same board, which is how many teams show progress in monday.com without touching a status column.

When to use it
an invoice is paid in your accounting tool, and the matching item should jump from Awaiting payment to Paid.
Watch out
it stays inside one board. Moving work to another board takes a create module on the destination side.
monday.com26

Remove Board Subscribers

Action

In Make“Removes subscribers from a board by their IDs and the board ID.”

Take people off a board in one pass, based on their user IDs and the board ID, once their role on the project is over.

When to use it
a freelancer's mission is closed in your contract tool, and their place on the client board should end with it.
Watch out
check the IDs with List Board Subscribers and a Run once before letting it run on its own.
monday.com27

Run monday.com AI (beta)

Action

In Make“Runs monday.com AI chat.”

Ask the AI built into monday.com to write or rework text inside a scenario, then pass its answer on to an update, an item or an email.

When to use it
a long client update should be summarized before it is posted on the team's board.
Watch out
the module is labeled beta. Read what it returns with Run once before trusting it on live boards.
monday.com28

Run Platform Agent (beta)

Action

In Make“Sends a prompt to Monday's platform agent.”

Send a prompt to a monday.com platform agent and use its answer in the rest of the scenario, bringing that agent's work into an automated flow.

When to use it
your team relies on a platform agent in monday.com and wants it to process each new request without someone typing the prompt.
Watch out
it is marked beta, so keep a human check on its output before it changes live items.
monday.com29

Update Column Values of a Specific Item

Action

In Make“Updates multiple columns values of a specific item.”

Change several columns of one item within a single module: status, owner and date move together, for one operation instead of three separate ones.

When to use it
an order ships, and the matching item needs its stage, tracking reference and delivery date refreshed at once.
Watch out
the item has to be identified first, often through Search Items in the Board by Column Values.
monday.com30

Aggregate a Table (beta)

Search

In Make“Retrieve aggregated board data using groupings and functions”

Get computed figures out of a board, grouped the way you choose, without exporting everything to a spreadsheet first.

When to use it
a dashboard or a message to management needs numbers per status or per owner rather than a pile of raw items.
Watch out
it is a beta search module. Compare its first results with the board itself before sending them to anyone.
monday.com31

List Board Activity Logs

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of board activity logs.”

Retrieve the history of what happened on a board, useful whenever you need a record of its activity outside monday.com.

When to use it
an internal audit or a client dispute calls for a trace of how a project board evolved.
Watch out
like any search, it can return many bundles, and each one then passes through the following modules as a separate operation.
monday.com32

List Boards

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of boards.”

Get the boards of your account as a list, one bundle per board, to loop through them or to find the one you need.

When to use it
a backup or reporting scenario has to touch every board rather than a single one.
Watch out
each board becomes a bundle, so the modules after it run once per board and your operation count rises accordingly.
monday.com33

List Board's Groups

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of groups in the given board.”

List the groups of a given board, one bundle each, so you can act on every section or locate a group by its name.

When to use it
a scenario posts a summary per group, or needs the group called Done before moving items there.
Watch out
if a single group is all you care about, Get a Group is simpler and returns just that one.
monday.com34

List Board's Items

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of board's items.”

Pull the items of a board as separate bundles, the starting point for exports, clean-ups and bulk changes.

When to use it
a full copy of a board should go to a spreadsheet or a data warehouse for analysis.
Watch out
a large board means many bundles and many operations downstream; Search Items in the Board by Column Values keeps only the rows you need.
monday.com35

List Board Subscribers

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of subscribers of a board by the board ID.”

See who follows a board from its ID, one bundle per subscriber, to audit who is involved or to message all of them.

When to use it
before a client project closes, review who is still subscribed and decide who should be removed.
Watch out
chain it with Remove Board Subscribers only after reading the list in a Run once test.
monday.com36

List Files

Search

In Make“Returns a list of files based on collection of assets.”

List files stored in monday.com from a set of asset IDs, so you know what is there before downloading or moving anything.

When to use it
a backup scenario gathers the attachments of a project before Download a File sends them to storage.
Watch out
listing a file doesn't bring its content into the scenario; Download a File does that part.
monday.com37

List Group's Items

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of group's items.”

Retrieve the items of one group only, which keeps exports and bulk actions focused on a single section of the board.

When to use it
everything in the Done group should be archived or reported, while the other groups stay untouched.
Watch out
an empty group returns zero bundles, so test with Run once on a group that actually holds items.
monday.com38

List Item's Subscribers

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of item's (pulse's) subscribers.”

Find the people subscribed to a given item, so a message, a reminder or an escalation reaches exactly those who follow it.

When to use it
a critical ticket changes status, and each of its subscribers should receive a notification from the scenario.
Watch out
one bundle comes out per subscriber, so Create a Notification placed after it runs once for each person.
monday.com39

List Item's Updates

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of item's updates.”

Read the updates posted on an item, bundle by bundle, to archive a thread or feed it into a summary.

When to use it
a project closes, and its full discussion should be saved as a document in the client folder.
Watch out
to catch new updates as they come instead of reading the history, pick a trigger such as Watch Board's Updates.
monday.com40

List Team Members

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of members by team ID.”

Get the members of a team from the team ID, one bundle per person, ready to be subscribed, notified or counted.

When to use it
a new board should be followed by the whole design team without anyone typing each name.
Watch out
List Teams gives you the team ID when you only know the team by its name.
monday.com41

List Teams

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of teams.”

Pull every team of your monday.com account, one bundle per team, to see which teams exist before you send work or a message to one of them.

When to use it
a scenario has to pick a team on the fly, for example to tell each department about a change on a shared board.
Watch out
the modules after it run once per team, and each run counts as an operation.

List Updates

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of updates.”

Read the updates already posted in your account, the comment threads left on items, to archive them, forward them or look for a word in them.

When to use it
you need the existing history in one pass, for a project wrap-up, rather than waiting for new comments with a trigger.
Watch out
it is a search: it reads what exists when the scenario runs and never starts the scenario by itself.

List Users

Search

In Make“Retrieves a list of users.”

Go through the people in your monday.com account, one bundle per person, to match a name coming from another app with a real monday.com user.

When to use it
a lead from your CRM or a help desk ticket must be assigned to someone, and the scenario first has to find that person's account.
Watch out
a large account returns many bundles and every later module runs once per person; once you know the ID, Get a User is lighter.

Search Items in the Board by Column Values

Search

In Make“Searches on the board based on column value, returning relevant data for the selected items.”

Find the items of a board that hold a given column value, with their data ready to map. It is how a scenario checks that a deal or an order is not already on the board before creating a duplicate.

When to use it
you look items up by one known value, such as a reference number, and a plain match is enough.
Watch out
when nothing matches, no bundle comes out and the modules after it don't run; test that case with Run once.

Search Items in the Board by Column Values (advanced)

Search

In Make“Searches and sorts items on the board based on specific criteria, returning relevant data for the selected items.”

Filter a board on several criteria and sort the results, so matching items reach the next module in the order you chose.

When to use it
you need, say, one owner's open tasks in a set order to build a digest, or to handle the first match before the others.
Watch out
start with the simple column value search, and switch to this one only once you know which extra criteria or sort your scenario needs.

FAQ

monday.com and Make: frequent questions

01Is the monday.com integration free in Make?
Yes. monday.com is a standard app, so it works on Make's Free plan. That plan comes with limits worth knowing before you build: 2 active scenarios, scheduled runs no closer than 15 minutes apart, 5 minutes of execution at most, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise) bring the minimum interval down to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and count usage in credits, meaning operations, per month. Your monday.com subscription is a separate matter this page does not cover.
02What does it take to connect monday.com to Make?
A monday.com account and a Make account. No other prerequisite is documented. Add any monday.com module, click Create a connection, give it a name if you like, authorize Make on the monday.com page or paste the key monday.com provides, then click Save. Make then lists the boards and other objects it can reach with that account. One connection serves all 58 modules, so the setup happens once per account rather than once per scenario.
03Does the monday.com trigger in Make fire in real time?
It depends on the trigger. 5 of the 13 are instant: Watch Board's Column Values, Watch Board's Items with the lightning badge, Watch Board's Updates, Watch Events and Watch Item's Name. monday.com calls Make through a webhook as soon as the event happens. The other 8 are scheduled: Make checks monday.com on the scenario's schedule, every 15 minutes by default, down to 1 minute on paid plans and never under 15 minutes on Free. When speed matters, start from an instant trigger.
04What if the monday.com module you need is missing in Make?
Look at Execute a GraphQL Query first. monday.com has no Make an API Call module, but this one sends a GraphQL query you write yourself, within what your connection is authorized to do, which covers requests the ready-made modules leave out. It does ask for some comfort with monday.com's API. If writing queries is not something your team wants to take on, the help form at the bottom of this page reaches people who build this kind of scenario.
05Make or n8n for monday.com: which one should you pick?
Both can work; the right answer depends on your use case, not on a winner. In Make, monday.com brings 58 modules, including 13 triggers with 5 instant ones, plus Run monday.com AI and Run Platform Agent in beta. monday.com also has an n8n node, covered on its own page of this site. Write down the events and actions your scenario needs, then check that each one exists as a module or node in the tool you are considering. The n8n vs Make comparison on this site lays out the general differences.
