Overview
What is Monday.com: Monday.com is an AI work platform for project tracking, CRM, service delivery, and software development. It organizes work into boards, items, groups, and columns, a flexible structure that maps to task lists, sales pipelines, and support ticket queues.
Monday.com exposes a GraphQL API covering boards, items, column values, users, updates, tags, and more.
Datagrid connects directly to Monday.com and pulls structured board data into agentic AI workflows. Once imported, Datagrid's AI agents process, classify, cross-reference, and report on that data, executing workflows that previously required manual CSV exports, pivot tables, or custom scripts. The integration runs on daily, weekly, or monthly schedules.
Datagrid reads boards, items (pulses), columns, users, groups, updates, and tags. This gives Datagrid's AI agents visibility into project state, task assignments, status changes, and team activity for automated analysis, classification, and reporting across your Monday.com workspace.
How to integrate Monday.com with Datagrid
Project teams can use the steps below to connect Monday.com data to Datagrid, confirm authentication, and review how the sync behaves. Start by configuring the integration and schedule, then authenticate Monday.com access, then verify the sync details.
Configure the integration
This integration pulls board-level data from your Monday.com account into Datagrid datasets.
Click + Create in the top left of the Datagrid screen.
Select Connect Apps.
Search for the Monday integration from the list.
Log in with your Monday.com account and authorize Datagrid's access when prompted.
Click Next.
Select the Monday.com data to include in your dataset: boards, items, users, or other objects.
Click Start First Import to begin syncing.
To set the import schedule, go to the left side panel and click your Monday dataset.
Click ... in the top right of the dataset.
Click Edit Pipeline to edit your integration's name.
Click the Schedule button beside Import Configuration.
Set the frequency, time of day, and any downtime windows.
Click Update to save.
Authenticate Monday.com access
The integration requires an active Monday.com account with permissions to access the boards you want to import, and a Monday.com API key generated from your account under Admin → API. During setup, Monday.com may also prompt you to authorize Datagrid's access to your data.
Review sync behavior
Datagrid reads data from Monday.com and imports it into Datagrid on the schedule you set.
Direction — One-way (Monday.com → Datagrid)
Objects synced — Boards, Items (Pulses), Columns, Users, Groups, Updates, Tags
Frequency — Daily, weekly, or monthly (configurable)
Authentication — Monday.com account authorization + API key
Example imported record:
{
"board": "Project Board",
"item": "New request",
"group": "Backlog",
"columns": {
"status": "Working on it",
"owner": "Team member"
},
"updates": ["Initial request received"],
"tags": ["urgent"]
}
Once the first import completes, Datagrid can process the dataset on the schedule you set.
Why use Monday with Datagrid
Project teams use this integration to turn board data into repeatable agentic AI workflows for analysis, classification, and reporting.
Automated board analysis: Datagrid's AI agents read board and item data to detect bottlenecks, calculate completion rates, and flag overdue tasks without manual data pulls.
Cross-board aggregation: Datagrid's AI agents pull data from multiple Monday.com boards simultaneously and generate unified reports that go beyond single-board dashboards.
Intelligent classification: Incoming items with unstructured text are classified by type, urgency, and department, then routed to the right owner automatically.
Scheduled data freshness: Configure daily, weekly, or monthly syncs so Datagrid datasets reflect the current state of your Monday.com workspace.
AI-ready project data: Board structures, column values, user assignments, and activity updates arrive in Datagrid as structured records ready for agentic AI workflows.
What you can build with Monday and Datagrid
Project teams can use Monday data in Datagrid to standardize reporting and reduce manual review across boards.
These examples show how project teams can turn board activity into scheduled outputs, classifications, and operating reports.
Cross-board project health reports: A PMO tracks dozens of Monday.com boards across departments. Datagrid agents aggregate item status, deadline, and assignment data from every board into a single structured report, delivered weekly to leadership. Bottlenecks surface before they become blockers. No one opens a spreadsheet.
AI-powered request triage: An IT operations team receives service requests through Monday.com forms. Each new item contains unstructured text describing the issue. Datagrid agents read the text, classify by category and urgency, and flag items needing immediate attention, cutting manual triage time from hours to minutes.
Resource allocation analysis: A project team uses Monday.com to assign tasks and track workloads across multiple boards. Datagrid agents analyze people column data and item counts per assignee, identifying over-allocated team members and unbalanced workloads. The output feeds directly into capacity planning discussions.
Sales pipeline intelligence: A sales team tracks leads, opportunities, and deals across Monday.com CRM boards. Datagrid agents pull deal value, stage, and close date data on a daily schedule, then generate trend reports showing pipeline velocity, win rates by stage, and deals at risk of slipping. Sales leadership gets a clean summary without manual CRM exports.
These workflows keep Monday.com data usable beyond individual boards and dashboards.
