Board → Duplicate a Board
AI-generatedOverview
The node enables interaction with Monday.com boards and related entities via the Monday.com API. Specifically, for the Board resource and the Duplicate a Board operation, it allows users to create a copy of an existing board within a specified workspace and folder. Users can choose the duplication type (structure only, with pulses, or with pulses and updates) and decide whether to keep the subscribers from the original board.
This operation is beneficial when you want to replicate a project setup, workflow, or template board without manually recreating all groups, items, and settings. For example, duplicating a project management board to start a new project with the same structure and optionally the same tasks and updates.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Board Name | The name for the new duplicated board. |
| Workspace Name or ID | The workspace where the duplicated board will be created. |
| Board Name or ID | The ID of the existing board to duplicate. |
| Folder Name or ID | The folder in which to place the duplicated board. |
| Keep Subscribers | Boolean flag indicating whether to retain the subscribers from the original board on the duplicated board. |
| Duplicate Type | The type of duplication to perform: - Duplicate Board with Pulses - Duplicate Board with Pulses and Updates - Duplicate Board with Structure |
Output
The output JSON contains the details of the duplicated board, specifically:
{
"board": {
"id": "<duplicated_board_id>",
"name": "<duplicated_board_name>"
}
}
This confirms the successful creation of the duplicated board and provides its identifier and name for further use in workflows.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for Monday.com with appropriate permissions.
- The node makes HTTP POST requests to the Monday.com GraphQL API endpoint at
https://api.monday.com/v2. - The user must have access rights to the source board and target workspace/folder.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Board ID: If the board ID to duplicate is not provided, the node throws an error "Board ID is required." Ensure this property is set correctly.
- Missing API Key: If the API key credential is missing or invalid, the node throws "API Key not found." Verify that the credential is configured properly.
- Invalid Folder ID: If the folder ID is invalid or not accessible, the duplication may fail. Use the folder selector or provide a valid folder ID.
- Permission Issues: Insufficient permissions on the source board or target workspace may cause errors. Confirm that the API key has necessary scopes.
- Duplicate Type Errors: Providing an unsupported duplication type value will cause failure. Use one of the predefined options.
