How to keep two monday.com boards in sync automatically

Why aren't connect and mirror columns enough?

The connect column links items by hand, one at a time, and mirror columns are read-only. So the sales team updates a date on their board, and the delivery team still sees the old one on theirs.

How do I connect matching items automatically?

Set the match once. When a new item is added, Connected Boards Automations finds its match on the other board and connects them, with no searching or linking by hand.

• Match by name, ID or any column.
• Connect when an item is created or when a column changes.
• Connect to every match, or only the first.

How do I keep their values in sync?

Choose which columns sync and when. Update either board and the connected item follows, so owners, dates and statuses stay current for every team. It works on items and subitems.

Can one automation connect and sync together?

Yes. Connect + Sync does both: new items connect to their match, and every column with the same name and type stays in sync, from either board.

The columns have to share a name and a type on both boards for this to work.

What else can run across boards?

• Move an item when a connected status changes.
• Change a status from another board.
• Copy every new update to all connected items, so the other team never has to ask.

How do I set it up?

1. Install the app free from the monday.com marketplace. A monday.com admin, or someone with app-install permission, does this once.
2. On your board, add the automation you need.
3. Choose the columns it should read and update.
4. It runs on its own. Each change it makes counts as one action.

How do teams use it?

• Professional services. Each team runs its own board, and every job connects to a central overview board, with status and dates in sync both ways.
• Staffing and recruiting. Candidates and their references live on separate boards, linked automatically, with real columns that update from either side instead of read-only mirrors.
• Healthcare. A billing team keeps three boards in sync: patient balances, card payments and payment plans. A change to a balance or follow-up date shows up everywhere.

How much does it cost?

There's a free plan with 40 actions / month. Paid plans run from $35 to $500 a month, or from $28 a month billed yearly. Every plan includes unlimited users, billing runs through your monday.com account, and every plan comes with a full refund within the first 30 days.

What do customers say?

“Connected Boards Automations solved a huge pain point for us. Now, updates flow between linked boards automatically, and our team always has the latest info without manual copying.”

Questions

Do I need to be a monday.com admin to install it?

Not always. monday.com admins, or users with app-install permission, can install Marketplace apps. If you're neither, ask your admin to install it.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. Every plan comes with a full refund within the first 30 days, and monthly plans can be cancelled anytime. Refunds are issued by monday.com.

What counts as one action?

One thing an automation does: a status change, a connection created or a date update. Updating 10 connected items at once is 10 actions.

Can I use it on all my boards?

Yes. Once installed in a workspace, it works on every board in it, with no per-board cost.
