Copy an item to another board using mutation duplicate_item

Hi everyone,

I’m building an app that involves copying items from one board to another using the Monday.com API. I’ve been experimenting with the duplicate_item mutation, and while it seems to support cross-board duplication (even though this isn’t clearly documented), I’m running into an issue:

The main item gets successfully copied to the target board, but the subitems do not.

Has anyone else experienced this?

  • Is this expected behavior?
  • Is there a recommended way to include subitems during cross-board duplication?
  • Any official word on whether duplicate_item is intended to support this use case?

Appreciate any insight or confirmation from others in the community or the Monday team.

Thanks!
