Skill Details

SKILL.md

Monday.com GraphQL API via curl. Use this skill to manage boards, items, and projects.

Overview

# Monday.com API

Use the Monday.com GraphQL API via direct curl calls to manage boards, items, and project data.

> Official docs: https://developer.monday.com/api-reference/

---

When to Use

Use this skill when you need to:

Query boards and items from Monday.com
Create, update, or delete items in boards
Manage board columns and groups
Sync data between Monday.com and other systems
Automate project workflows

---

Prerequisites

Log in to [Monday.com](https://monday.com/)
Go to your avatar → Developers → My Access Tokens
Generate a new API token
Store it in the environment variable MONDAY_API_KEY

```bash

export MONDAY_API_KEY="your-api-token"

```

API Info

GraphQL endpoint: https://api.monday.com/v2
All requests are POST
Requires Authorization header with API token
Requires API-Version header (use 2024-10)

---

> Important: When using $VAR in a command that pipes to another command, wrap the command containing $VAR in bash -c '...'. Due to a Claude Code bug, environment variables are silently cleared when pipes are used directly.

> ```bash

> bash -c 'curl -s "https://api.example.com" -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY"'

> ```

How to Use

All examples below assume you have MONDAY_API_KEY set.

---

1. Get Current User

Query the authenticated user's info:

Write to /tmp/monday_request.json:

```json

{

"query": "query { me { id name email } }"

}

```

Then run:

```bash

bash -c 'curl -s -X POST "https://api.monday.com/v2" --header "Authorization: ${MONDAY_API_KEY}" --header "API-Version: 2024-10" --header "Content-Type: application/json" -d @/tmp/monday_request.json'

```

---

2. List All Boards

Get all boards in your account:

Write to /tmp/monday_request.json:

```json

{

"query": "query { boards (limit: 10) { id name state items_count } }"

}

```

Then run:

```bash

```

---

3. Get Board Details

Get a specific board with its groups and columns:

Write to /tmp/monday_request.json:

```json

{

"query": "query { boards (ids: ) { id name groups { id title } columns { id title type } } }"

}

```

Replace with an actual board ID from the "List All Boards" response (example 2).

Then run:

```bash

```

---

4. Get Items from a Board

Write to /tmp/monday_request.json:

```json

{

"query": "query { boards (ids: ) { items_page (limit: 10) { items { id name column_values { id text value } } } } }"

}

```

Replace with an actual board ID from the "List All Boards" response (example 2).

Then run:

```bash

```

---

5. Create a New Item

}

```

Replace the following values:

: A group ID from the "Get Board Details" response (example 3, groups array)
: Your desired name for the new item

Then run:

```bash

```

---

6. Create Item with Column Values

Create an item with specific column values:

Write to /tmp/monday_request.json:

```json

{

"query": "mutation ($boardId: ID!, $groupId: String!, $itemName: String!, $columnValues: JSON!) { create_item (board_id: $boardId, group_id: $groupId, item_name: $itemName, column_values: $columnValues) { id name } }",

"variables": {

"boardId": "",

"groupId": "",

"itemName": "",

"columnValues": "{\"status\": {\"label\": \"Working on it\"}, \"date\": {\"date\": \"2025-01-15\"}}"

}

```

Replace the following values:

```json

{

"query": "mutation ($boardId: ID!, $itemId: ID!, $columnValues: JSON!) { change_multiple_column_values (board_id: $boardId, item_id: $itemId, column_values: $columnValues) { id name } }",

"variables": {

"boardId": "",

"itemId": "",

"columnValues": "{\"status\": {\"label\": \"Done\"}}"

}

```

Replace the following values:

}

```

Replace with an actual item ID from the "Get Items from a Board" response (example 4).

Then run:

```bash

```

---

9. Create a New Board

Create a new board:

Write to /tmp/monday_request.json:

```json

{

"query": "mutation { create_board (board_name: \"My New Board\", board_kind: public) { id name } }"

}

```

Then run:

```bash

```

---

10. Search Items

Search for items across boards:

Write to /tmp/monday_request.json:

```json

{

"query": "query { items_page_by_column_values (limit: 10, board_id: , columns: [{column_id: \"name\", column_values: [\"Task\"]}]) { items { id name } } }"

}

```

Replace with an actual board ID from the "List All Boards" response (example 2).

Then run:

```bash

```

Common Column Types

Guidelines

Use variables for complex queries: GraphQL variables make escaping easier
Check column IDs: Use the board query to get exact column IDs before updating
API versioning: Always include API-Version header for consistent behavior
Rate limits: API has rate limits; add delays for bulk operations
Column values are JSON strings: When using column_values, pass as escaped JSON string
