Hello
I have been experimenting with automation to move items between boards based on specific statuses or due dates. 🙂However, I’ve run into a challenge: the source and destination boards don’t always have identical column structures. 🙃
In some cases, the destination board is missing certain columns / has different column types (e.g., status in one, dropdown in the other). This leads to data not transferring cleanly or worse, disappearing altogether. 😇
What’s the best way to manage / prevent data loss during these board-to-board item moves? Are there platform best practices or tools (like Make or Zapier) that can help standardize data formats before the transfer? 😇 Checked Platform discussions - monday Community Forum for reference. I also found myself exploring Excel Interview questions to better understand how data structuring principles apply across different platforms.
I would love to hear how others are handling similar use cases especially those with complex workflows across multiple teams.
Thank you !! 🙂
