Monday.com Integration
Turn feedback into Monday.com items. When someone submits feedback, an item is created in your chosen board and group with the message, screenshots, priority, and a link back to your site.
Setup
Step 1: Connect Monday.com
- Go to Project Settings > Integrations > Monday.com
- Click Connect to Monday.com
- Authorize SimpleCommenter in the popup
- Grant access to your Monday.com account
Step 2: Choose a Destination
After connecting, select where items should be created:
- Board — pick which Monday.com board will receive items (required)
- Group — choose a group within the board (required)
In Monday.com, every item lives in a group on a board. Groups are the rows sections like "This Week", "Backlog", or "Done" that organize your items.
Step 3: Map Columns
After selecting a board and group, map your Monday.com columns to SimpleCommenter fields:
- Status Column — which status-type column tracks the feedback status (optional)
- Priority Column — which status-type column tracks priority (optional)
- Files Column — which file column receives screenshots and attachments (optional)
Column mapping is shown below the routing section regardless of whether you use Simple or Advanced mode.
If you skip column mapping, items will still be created — status, priority, and files just won't sync to columns. The information is always included in the item's update text.
Step 4: Choose a Routing Mode
Simple Mode
All feedback goes to one board and group. Select from the dropdowns.
Good for small teams or projects where all feedback goes to the same place.
Advanced Mode
Create routing rules that send feedback to different boards and groups based on conditions. For example, route design feedback to the Design board and bugs to the Development board.
See Routing Rules below for the full list of options.
New projects default to Simple mode. You can switch between modes at any time without losing your configuration.
Step 5: Enable the Integration
Use the toggle in the header to turn the integration on. You can disable it at any time to pause syncing without disconnecting or losing your settings.
Where to Configure
You can set up Monday.com in two places:
Project Settings
Go to Project > Settings > Integrations > Monday.com
- Applies only to this specific project
- Overrides any default settings
Default Settings
Go to Default Settings > Integrations > Monday.com
- Applies to all new projects automatically
- Useful if you want every project to create items on the same board
Project-level settings always take priority. If you configure Monday.com for a specific project, that configuration is used instead of the defaults.
Routing Rules
In Advanced mode, each rule has four parts:
Triggers
Choose which events fire the rule:
| Trigger | When it fires | |---------|---------------| | New comment | Someone submits feedback | | Reply | Someone replies to existing feedback | | Status update | A comment's status or priority changes |
New rules default to New comment and Reply enabled.
Conditions
Filter which feedback matches the rule. No conditions means the rule matches everything. Multiple conditions use AND logic — all must match.
| Field | Operators | Values |
|-------|-----------|--------|
| Priority | is, is not | Low, Normal, High, Urgent |
| Status | is, is not | To Do, In Progress, Review, Rework, On Hold, Blocked, Done, Cancelled, Won't Fix |
| Commenter role | is, is not | Client, Team Lead, Workspace Admin |
| Tagged user | includes | Any team member |
| Page URL | is, contains, starts with | Text (e.g. /blog, /pricing) |
Destination
Each rule sends matching feedback to a specific Monday.com board and group.
Examples
- Client feedback to a dedicated board: Condition = "Commenter role is Client" → Board: Client Reviews / Group: Incoming
- Bugs to development: Condition = "Page URL contains /app" → Board: Development / Group: Backlog
- High priority alerts: Condition = "Priority is High or Urgent" → Board: Urgent / Group: This Week
What Gets Synced
New Feedback → Monday.com Item
When someone submits feedback, an item is created with:
Item name:
#123 | Button not working on checkout page
Item update includes:
- The feedback message
- Who submitted it (name, email)
- Date and time
- Page URL
- Link back to SimpleCommenter
Attachments:
- Screenshot (uploaded to the files column if mapped)
- Any files the user uploaded
Status column:
If a status column is mapped, it's set automatically based on the feedback status:
- Name
To Do- Type
- Monday: Ready to Start
- Description
New feedback starts here
- Name
In Progress- Type
- Monday: Working on it
- Description
Actively being worked on
- Name
Review- Type
- Monday: Needs Review
- Description
Awaiting review
- Name
Blocked- Type
- Monday: Stuck
- Description
Cannot proceed
- Name
Done- Type
- Monday: Done
- Description
Completed
Status mapping uses label names. If your board's status column doesn't have a matching label (e.g., "Ready to Start"), the status will remain blank. You can add these labels to your column settings in Monday.com.
Priority column:
If a priority column is mapped, it's set automatically:
- Name
Low- Type
- Monday: Low
- Description
Low priority
- Name
Normal- Type
- Monday: Medium
- Description
Normal priority
- Name
High- Type
- Monday: High
- Description
High priority
Replies → Item Updates
When you reply to feedback in SimpleCommenter, an update (comment) is added to the Monday.com item with the reply text and any attachment links.
Status & Priority Updates
When you change status or priority in SimpleCommenter:
- The item's status column is updated to the matching label
- The item's priority column is updated
- An update is added to the item describing the change
Enabling and Disabling
The toggle in the integration header lets you pause syncing without disconnecting. Your board selection, column mapping, and routing rules are preserved.
- Enabled: Feedback syncs to Monday.com as configured
- Disabled: No items are created or updated. Settings stay intact
Troubleshooting
Items Not Creating?
- Check the toggle — Make sure the integration is enabled (not just connected)
- Check authorization — Verify Monday.com shows as connected
- Verify board and group — A board and group must be selected
- Check routing rules — In Advanced mode, at least one rule must be active with matching conditions
- Re-authorize — Click Disconnect, then Connect again to refresh the token
Status Not Updating on Items?
Monday.com status columns use label names. SimpleCommenter sends labels like "Ready to Start", "Working on it", and "Done". If your column uses different labels, add the matching ones in your Monday.com board settings under the status column configuration.
Files Not Uploading?
Make sure a Files Column is mapped in the Column Mapping section. Without it, screenshots and attachments won't upload (but they'll still be linked in the item's update text).
Disconnecting
- Go to Integrations > Monday.com
- Click Disconnect
- Confirm the disconnection
Existing Monday.com items are not deleted when you disconnect. They remain on your board.
