How to Connect Monday.com to Marqet
Marqet connects to Monday.com using a personal API token. Once connected, you can use Monday actions in any workflow — create items on a board, update items, list items, or create new boards.
What you'll need
- A Monday.com account
- Permission on your Monday account to create personal API tokens (most users have this by default)
Step 1 — Generate your Monday.com API token
- Log into Monday.com.
- Click your avatar in the top-right corner.
- Select Developers from the menu.
- In the left sidebar, click My access tokens.
- Click Show next to your personal token (or Generate new if you don't have one).
- Copy the token to your clipboard.
Security note: Treat this token like a password — it grants access to your Monday data. Don't share it or paste it into shared documents.
Step 2 — Enter the token in Marqet
- In your workflow, add a Monday.com action (e.g., Create Item).
- When prompted, click Connect Monday.com.
- Select API Key as the authentication method.
- Paste your token into the API Token field.
- Click Save.
Marqet immediately verifies the token by calling Monday's API. If the token is valid, you'll see a green "Connected" badge along with your Monday user name and email.
Step 3 — Select a board
Once connected, the Board dropdown populates with all boards in your Monday account.
- Type to filter by board name
- Boards you don't have access to won't appear
- You can change boards later — Marqet will reload the column list
Step 4 — Map fields to columns
After selecting a board, Marqet loads its columns and shows them in the field-mapping section.
Supported Monday column types:
| Column type | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The item's title |
| Text | Short single-line text |
| Long text | Multi-line text or descriptions |
| Link | URL fields with optional display text |
| Status | Predefined options |
| Numbers | Numeric values |
| Date | Date fields |
For each column you want to populate, select a Marq field from the dropdown or type a template variable like @{trigger-1.project.title}.
Columns you don't map are left empty — they don't block the action.
Available Monday.com actions
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Create Item | Creates a new item on a board |
| Update Item | Updates fields on an existing item by ID |
| List Items | Returns items matching a query (useful for branching logic) |
| Create Board | Spins up a new board (rarely needed in approval flows) |
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| "Invalid token" error | Re-copy the token from Monday — some browsers include a trailing newline. Check for extra whitespace. |
| Board dropdown is empty | Your Monday user doesn't have access to any boards. Get added as a member or create a board first. |
| Columns missing from dropdown | Marqet doesn't support all Monday column types yet (e.g., mirror, formula, dependency). Map only standard types. |
| "Item created but column not updated" | Column type mismatch — check the type in Monday matches what Marqet expects. |
Rotating or revoking access
To rotate your token: Generate a new one in Monday, then update the saved credential in Marqet (Admin → Integrations → Monday.com → Update credentials).
To disconnect entirely: Admin → Integrations → Monday.com → Disconnect. This invalidates all workflows that use Monday until you reconnect.
