Interact with Monday.com API

Overview

This node interacts with Monday.com API to manage folders within a workspace. Specifically, the "Delete" operation under the "Folder" resource allows users to delete a folder by specifying its ID. This is useful for automating cleanup tasks, managing project organization, or removing obsolete folders programmatically.

Practical example: Automatically deleting a folder when a related project is completed or archived, helping keep your Monday.com workspace tidy without manual intervention.

Properties

Name Meaning
Folder ID The unique identifier of the folder to delete. This is required to specify which folder should be removed.

Output

The output JSON contains an object with two fields:

  • success: A boolean indicating whether the folder deletion was successful.
  • folderId: The ID of the folder that was requested to be deleted.

Example output:

{
  "success": true,
  "folderId": "123456"
}

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API authentication token credential for Monday.com.
  • Uses Monday.com API version (defaulting to "2023-10" if not specified).
  • The node depends on the Monday.com API client utility bundled within the node's codebase.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Invalid or missing Folder ID: The operation requires a valid folder ID; ensure it is correctly provided.
    • Insufficient permissions: The API token used must have rights to delete folders in the target workspace.
    • Network or API errors: Temporary connectivity issues or Monday.com API downtime can cause failures.
  • Error messages:

    • If the folder ID does not exist or is invalid, the API may return an error indicating the folder was not found.
    • Authentication errors if the API token is invalid or expired.
  • Resolution tips:

    • Verify the folder ID exists and is correct.
    • Confirm the API token has appropriate permissions.
    • Enable "Continue On Fail" in the node settings to handle errors gracefully during batch operations.
