⚡ monday.com n8n Automation

Ready-to-use n8n workflows that connect monday.com with your daily tools. Auto-create items, sync status updates, route notifications, and keep projects moving without busywork.

These monday.com workflows are for ops leads, project managers, sales teams, and agencies who live in boards but hate copy‑pasting updates. Automatically create items from forms, sync columns with spreadsheets, trigger follow-ups, and keep everyone notified in the right channel. You’ll reduce missed handoffs, speed up approvals, and get cleaner reporting. Honestly, even one automation can save about 2 hours each week across a team.

📊 About monday.com

monday.com is a work management platform where teams plan projects, track tasks, and run processes on visual boards. You can assign owners, set statuses and due dates, capture files, and build simple dashboards for visibility. It’s great for keeping work organized, but updates often live in other tools. Automation helps monday.com stay current by pulling in new requests, pushing status changes out, and keeping timelines, handoffs, and reporting consistent.

How do I connect monday.com to n8n?

In n8n, add a monday.com node and connect your account using an API token from monday.com (Admin section → API). Then choose an action like “Create Item” or “Update Column” and select your board and group. To bring data in, use a trigger (Webhook, Form, Gmail, or Schedule) and map fields into monday.com columns. Test once with a sample item, then turn the workflow on. Flowpast templates handle the mapping for you.

What can I automate with monday.com?

A lot, frankly: intake, updates, and follow-ups. You can create items from forms or emails, sync key columns to Google Sheets, notify Slack when a status changes, and auto-assign owners based on rules. Many teams also generate briefs or summaries with OpenAI, attach them to items, and post the same update to multiple channels. If you’re doing the same steps every day, it’s a good candidate.

Do I need a monday.com account?

Yes. You’ll need access to the monday.com workspace (and the right permissions) to create API tokens and let n8n read or write to your boards.

What are common monday.com automation limitations or gotchas?

The biggest issues are permissions, column types, and rate limits. If your token can’t access a private board, the workflow will fail until you share the board or use a token from an authorized user. Some columns (like People, Status, or Connect Boards) need specific values or IDs, not plain text, so mapping matters. Also, high-volume syncs can hit API limits; batching updates and running on a schedule usually fixes it. When in doubt, start with one board and scale.
