Hi @AizaLiansing 

You need to use this section in the Action.

Make sure to check out the blue linked “documentation” below that section.

In Monday, go to Labs (settings), and turn on Developer Mode, to retrieve the internal Monday column IDs to be used on the left side of the Column Values below: https://support.monday.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002138760-What-is-monday-labs-

 

Hi @Troy Tessalone I had turned on the Developer Mode and filled up the column values. However, I still can’t have the desired output. Please guide me.

Unfortunately yes specific Monday column types necessitate certain formatting as the Monday integration is not the most user friendly to work with.

Or you can update an Item’s fields individually with separate Zap actions per column type, but that will use a lot of Tasks
