Hello,
My company is currently evaluating a move to monday.com, and I’m exploring the API capabilities. One of our key requirements is the ability to create and update item descriptions via the API.
I’ve seen that it’s now possible to fetch an item’s description using the blocks field (as confirmed in this community post ). However, I’m stuck in a circular dependency: to update a description, I seem to need a block id, but that id is only generated after the description already exists. And to create the description in the first place, I don’t see a way to do it via the API without that same id.
Could you please clarify: Is it currently possible to create or initially set an item’s description using the monday.com API? If so, what’s the correct approach?
