Sync Items and Boards for monday.com
The Sync Items and Boards application for monday.com provides an integration between your monday.com boards. With this, you can set up integrations to automatically change values on one board based on the values from another board. The app works similarly to the popular VLOOKUP feature for spreadsheets. The Sync Items and Boards app allows you to automate certain changes on your boards and make your monday work environment more productive, effective, and rewarding.
Getting Started
These straightforward actions will deliver the add-on to your monday.com instance just in a few clicks.
After installing the app, add the Configuration Board View to any of your boards by clicking the plus icon, then selecting “Apps” > "Explore more apps"
Here, find the Sync Items and Boards app - Configuration and click “Open in board”. Note that it doesn't matter which board you add this Configuration page to, it will control the configuration for your whole workspace.
Create a Static Configuration
Static configurations will control the synchronization between two boards. On the configuration page, there are two tabs. Under "Static Configurations" you can see all of your existing configurations. Under "Main" you can add a new configuration.
To add a new configuration, first select a Source Board and a Target Board. The Source board is where the integration takes the values from, and the Target board is where the changes will happen.
Next, fill in the last four dropdowns:
Source Key Value:
Target Key Column:
Source Column Value:
Target Column Value:
Tip: try filling in the same value horizontally. The "Key" field triggers the integration and the "Column" field will be changed automatically.
Activating the Configuration
To activate the configuration, go to your Target board.
Click on "Integrations" and find Sync Items and Boards.
Select from the three available integrations the one that applies to your configuration. For example, if you selected "Date" for Source Key Value and Target Key Column, and "Status" for Source Column Value and Target Column Value, then select the integration "When the date changes, update the status on the linked board".
