Wix to Monday - not seeing any value or id that could match between the two databases
Hello,
I have the same issue and i have tried this way but still i can’t figure out to update the corresponding item.
It looks like with Monday.com it is only possible to indicate value column as an id. Is ti always the case ?
I’m trying to connect an automation from Wix and a Monday board and i don’t know how to connect the properly as i don’t see any value or id that coule match between the two database. Maybe a webhook would be needed ?
The idee is to create a point system and a leaderdoard.
When a participant attend to a booking or accomplish a challenge, he gets points.
This information is sent to Monday where there is the list of the participants
The automation should only update for example the column “Challenge “ of the corresponding participant
Any suggestion or good thought will be much appreciated !
Thanks

Hi @Guillaume Servonnat
There needs to be a matching value between both apps in order to lookup/update an existing Item in Monday.
Otherwise, you can create a new Item in Monday.
Thanks for your quick reply.
does it have to be a number value or can it be a text one? 7 month ago it was not possible but maybe now this is the case.
otherwise can the matching value be retrieved by a webhook or something? i have an id value at the destination in Monday but none in the input. And I don’t know how I could recover the Id field from Monday and that is accessible in Zapier.
hope I’m clear in my explanation, I don’t have a lot of experience in Zapier and complex automation.
Best regards,

It should be a unique ID of some sort (e.g. email address, phone number, etc.) that matches between the apps.
Perhaps you can outline a specific example to see what data points are available from/for each app.
Thanks for your help Troy.
Here is a concrete example:
in this step “Get item by Column Value in monday.com”, i indicate the email address that is in my input datable. Or should it be the one from the outpout database ? I tried both with unsuccessful results
When testing the Zap, it gives the results of the look up that i actually don’t understand, bit the test are successfull.
In the third step, when i have to indicate the matching id i’m also confused. A list of cells - linked to the results of the step 2 - is proposed to me for the match and i don’t know what to choose..
I tried using many diffèrent value - including the research true critria - i always have an error message
So i can see a little bit more clearer as i tested many diffèrent solutions but as you can see ! i al still missing something to make this zap work.
Thanks for your help

For the Monday Item search, make sure you are testing with values that exist in your Monday Board.
