I seem to be trying to do a very similar task but I’m wondering if integrations with Monday have changed in the last 2 years.

I'm looking for If anything changes in a file column within a Board that file gets loaded into dropbox.

This should be able to handle:

  • File added as new item, created using form
  • File is later added to a blank field 
  • File is changed in file column and the new file should replace the old file in Dropbox

I started with a ‘New Update in Board’ trigger and then did a ‘Get File Column Values’ action but the Item ID line should be a variable of whichever line changed not a constant like it seems to be forcing me to do.

Hi ​@Jacob B, welcome to the Community! 🎉

Hope you don’t mind but I’ve moved your question to a new topic since the original thread was quite old, and your situation is a bit different. 

From what I can see in Monday’s API documentation updates in Monday are a type of object, not a record of a change that is made to a board. So the New Update in Board trigger won’t necessarily trigger the Zap for all changes in the post, only updates that are added to it. I think that might be why it’s not supplying the ID for the file that was added. 🤔

I’d suggest trying the Any Column Value Changed in Board trigger instead as that should trigger any time a change of any sort is carried out. You may need to use a Filter to make sure it’s only triggering for changes made to that file column though. 

Can you give that a try and let us know how you get on?
