Reports overview
Boards report
Retrieves data for all selected boards in the "Source" tab.
The Board report contains Item data, but the Monday API returns only 1,000 items per board in this pull.
If you need more items for a specific board, use the Items report and apply the relevant board filter.
Items report
Returns a record for each item in the selected boards.
Tags report
Tags are used to group items across different groups or boards by a consistent keyword. This report returns reference data for each tag, including ID, name, and color.
Teams report
Teams reports are efficient for managing groups of users in Monday. This report returns one record per team.
Users report
Returns reference data at the user level.
The Users endpoint does not support pagination. Use filters to narrow down the result set.
Activity logs report
Activity logs capture all activities performed on a board, such as status changes, item additions, or comments. This report returns data at the activity level for a board.
Recommendation: Filter this report to specific boards to reduce processing time, especially when dealing with large accounts.
Data Integration does not currently support performing GraphQL joins within Monday.com. To obtain both board and item data, you must handle them separately using the relevant reports.
