Monday.com (connect your real Monday.com account)

A first-party integration that connects Omniscio to your real Monday.com account through its Cloud API: view boards, manage items, track assigned work in your inbox, and react to item changes without leaving Omniscio. In development and off by default; connects with a personal API token rather than a sign-in.

What it is

Status: in development. Enable it in Settings → Features -> "Monday.com" (or set AMC_SHOW_MONDAY_CLOUD=1); the "Monday.com" sidebar row appears once it is on.

What it is

A first-party Omniscio integration that connects to your real Monday.com account via its Cloud API so you can view boards, manage items, track assigned work in your inbox, and trigger workflows from item changes; all without leaving Omniscio. It surfaces as a "Monday.com" row in the projects sidebar (gated via the monday-cloud unreleased-feature registry, default off).

This is NOT the existing Mission Control integration (id 'monday'), which is a self-hosted project management system backed by its own database. The two share no code. This integration (id 'monday-cloud') talks to the real monday.com API.

Where to find it

Enable it in Settings → Features → Monday.com, after which a Monday.com row appears in the sidebar and the boards live behind it.

How it behaves

How to connect

  1. Enable it: Settings → Features -> toggle Monday.com on. A "Monday.com" row appears in the sidebar.
  2. Get your API token: go to monday.com -> click your avatar -> Developers -> My Access Tokens. Copy the token.
  3. Connect (in-panel): open the Monday.com sidebar row and click Set up Monday.com on the connect screen, then paste your API token in the drawer and Save — it tests the connection on save. (Monday.com uses the shared in-app connection stack — the same drawer as the Jira, Linear, Notion, and ClickUp boards — not a separate settings page.)

Your API token is encrypted at rest on your device (mondayCloudApiToken is in ENCRYPTED_APP_SETTINGS_KEYS) and is never sent to the renderer.

Features

  • Board view: see all your boards, groups rendered as swimlanes, items with inline column values
  • Item detail: full item drawer with column values, updates/comments, and subitems
  • Inline editing: change status, person, date, text columns directly — on the item AND on its subitems (each subitem edit is scoped to the subitem's own board)
  • File columns: view a file column's attachments as download links, and upload a new file via a native picker (parent items)
  • Search: find items across a board by column value
  • Item creation: create new items in any group
  • Move items: move items between groups
  • Comments: post updates (comments) on items
  • Inbox: items assigned to you appear in the unified inbox (enable "Monday.com Inbox" in settings); all assigned items surface as rows; updates re-fire the push
  • Workflow triggers: fire automations when items are created, updated, or change status on a specific board

Limitations

  • Personal API token only (no OAuth yet)
  • Rate limited by Monday.com's complexity budget (approximately 3 req/s effective); the client logs the remaining budget but does not proactively throttle
  • Subitems are editable in the item drawer (status/person/date/text columns), EXCEPT a subitem's own file columns, which are shown read-only (file upload targets parent items only)
  • File/asset columns: view (download links) + upload (native picker) are supported on parent items; monday's relational column types (formula, mirror, dependency, connect-boards) are still not supported
  • Column values are JSON-encoded strings in the API (must JSON.stringify before sending)

Troubleshooting

  • "Invalid API token": regenerate at monday.com -> Admin -> API
  • "Rate limit reached": wait 60 seconds; Monday.com resets per-minute complexity
  • Board not showing: check workspace filter in the sidebar
  • Feature not visible: ensure mondayCloudEnabled is on in Settings -> Lab, or set AMC_SHOW_MONDAY_CLOUD=1

For agents

How it works (internals)

  • Auth: personal API token sent verbatim in the Authorization header (NOT "Bearer" prefixed; a monday.com API quirk). Token auth, not OAuth.
  • Credentials: stored as the flat AppSettings field mondayCloudApiToken. Listed in ENCRYPTED_APP_SETTINGS_KEYS (encrypted at rest). Loaded via getSavedMondayCloudCreds in main-process memory only.
  • Client: src/main/services/monday-cloud/monday-cloud-client.ts. All requests go to https://api.monday.com/v2 (fixed constant, no SSRF surface). A Semaphore(5) caps concurrent requests. Mutations (detected by /^\s*mutation\b/) are never retried (maxAttempts: 1); queries retry up to 3 times on 429/5xx with exponential backoff + jitter.
  • IPC: monday-cloud:auth-status + monday-cloud:test-connection (connect); reads monday-cloud:list-boards, monday-cloud:get-board, monday-cloud:get-items, monday-cloud:get-item, monday-cloud:list-workspaces, monday-cloud:search; writes monday-cloud:create-item, monday-cloud:update-column, monday-cloud:move-item, monday-cloud:create-update, monday-cloud:add-file (desktop-only file upload — native picker in Main, bytes never cross IPC, refused over the web WS bridge). None return the token; all humanize failures. Every successful write also pushes monday-cloud/items-changed, which makes an open board view re-fetch its rows (debounced 300ms) so an edit shows up without switching boards — on mobile/web too.
  • Inbox poller: src/main/services/monday-cloud-inbox/monday-cloud-inbox-poller.ts. Uses the shared createInboxPoller factory with diff mode 'updated-at' and wholesale replaceAll on each tick. Kill switch: AMC_DISABLE_MONDAY_CLOUD_INBOX_POLL=1.
  • Workflow trigger: src/main/services/workflow-engine/monday-cloud-item-trigger.ts. Polls items on watched boards; baselines on first tick (no replay on restart; snapshot is memory-only). Kill switch: AMC_DISABLE_MONDAY_CLOUD_WORKFLOW_TRIGGER=1.
  • UI: credentials entered in-panel; board view, item drawer, and search in the monday-cloud feature folder. Sidebar row gated via isUnreleasedFeatureVisibleInRenderer('monday-cloud', settings) in Dashboard's visibleProjects filter.

CLI routes

All routes are gated by mondayCloudMutationPreamble (feature visibility + auth + rate limit). Returns 404 when the feature is not visible.
