monday.com is like a spreadsheet database and work management system that can also act as a relational database. As a result, it is a more robust data management option than simple spreadsheet solutions. This integration allows you to:
  • give your clients real-time project visibility
  • collect information faster
  • create user-friendly dashboards without board limits
monday.com is available on Professional and higher plans.

Connected boards in monday.com

Connected Boards let you link data between different boards, making monday.com a relational database. For example, if you have two boards:
  • Clients
  • Projects
You can connect Clients to Projects to see which projects each client is involved in. This helps keep all related information in one place.

Subitems

Subitems in monday.com help you add extra layers of information to your board items. You can sync these subitems to your Softr application as a Linked List. To do this, ensure you have a page with your Items mapped to any Dynamic List block, along with a corresponding List Detail page mapped to the same board. When you add a List block to this page, you’ll have the option to display either Items or Subitems. If you choose Subitems, only the sub-items will be shown, automatically filtered based on the parent task details in the view. (This filtering applies in both the preview and the published app.)
