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,

@Guillaume Servonnat

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..
