Worktables

Overview

This node enables interaction with updates on Monday.com boards, specifically supporting operations such as listing, creating, updating, deleting, pinning, duplicating updates, and managing files attached to updates. The "Delete" operation for the "Update" resource allows users to remove a specific update from a board by specifying its ID.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include automating project management workflows, cleaning up outdated or irrelevant updates, and maintaining organized communication threads within Monday.com boards. For example, a user might automate the deletion of updates that are no longer relevant after a task is completed or remove erroneous updates programmatically.

Properties

Output

The output of the "Delete" operation for an update is a JSON object containing the result of the deletion mutation. Typically, it includes the id of the deleted update confirming successful removal. The structure looks like:

{
  "delete_update": {
    "id": "<deleted_update_id>"
  }
}

No binary data is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for Monday.com (referred generically as an API authentication token).
• The node makes HTTP POST requests to the Monday.com GraphQL API endpoint: https://api.monday.com/v2.
• Proper configuration of the API key credential in n8n is necessary for authentication.

Troubleshooting

• API Key Not Found: If the API key credential is missing or invalid, the node will throw an error indicating the absence of the API key. Ensure the API key is correctly configured in n8n credentials.
• Update ID Required: Attempting to delete without specifying an update ID will cause an error. Always provide a valid update ID either by selecting from the list or using an expression.
• Unsupported Resource or Operation: Using unsupported resources or operations will result in errors. Confirm that the resource is set to "Update" and operation to "Delete".
• Network or Permission Issues: Errors from the Monday.com API may occur due to network problems or insufficient permissions associated with the API key. Verify network connectivity and API key permissions.
