In Monday.com it has action for Get Item by column value but I don’t see it shows the column name as an option. I tried some other action but I still can’t do it. Do you guys know how to do this action? Thanks

Hi EricM,

The action get item by name is unavailable. To work around that, I developed a new Monday.com private app that can lookup item by name, create a subitem with column values, etc. 

This is private app so please reach out to me at https://www.doutomation.com/contact to try it.

 

Look Up Item by Name

 

Create a subitem with all the column values

 

Get all subitems and return formatted data for next step

 

Get Item by Column value and return correct format
