How do Monday.com Triggers Work? (Coming soon)
Monday.com triggers are event-based and near real-time.
-
Choose a trigger (e.g., New Item in Board or Column Value Changed).
-
Apply filters (board, column, group) to narrow execution.
-
Test the trigger to fetch live sample data.
-
Use dynamic fields (item name, status, owner, dates) in downstream actions.
Recommendation
For Column Value Changed triggers, always apply column-specific filters (e.g., Status = Completed) to avoid unnecessary executions when unrelated fields change.
