I am always enjoying using monday.com!
However, I would like to suggest a new idea that I believe would make the platform even better.

When you open a task card, there is a "Files" tab next to the "Updates" tab.
Currently, clicking "Add file" in this tab adds the file to the Files gallery by default.To add it to a Files column instead, one must click the arrow button on the right and select "Add to Files column."

I would like to request a feature that allows users to customize the default action when clicking "Add file."

The reason is that adding files directly to the Files column makes it much easier to see at a glance which items have attachments.
Furthermore, we use the Kanban view, which allows us to display information from the Files column directly on the cards.

Since the Files column is frequently used in project management, I would appreciate your consideration of this request.

Best.

Historically, duplicating a board (even within the same workspace) resulted in new column IDs, and much of the community and integration guidance has been based on that assumption. In my recent tests using the UI-based “Duplicate board” option within the same workspace, the board ID changed but the column IDs remained the same.

I couldn’t find any official documentation, Help Center article, or community post that explicitly explains this behavior or announces a change. Most existing community discussions and API guidance still assume column IDs may change and recommend defensive design (re-fetching columns, mapping by title/type, avoiding hard-coded IDs).

Because this behavior appears undocumented and not explicitly guaranteed, it’s likely best practice still remains unchanged: treat duplicated boards as potentially having different column IDs, even if they sometimes remain the same.

Sharing this here for awareness in case others have run into the same observation, especially those working with APIs, automations, or integrations.

Does anyone know any automations we could put in place to easily duplicate these tasks and ensure the timeline column is always the same as what it is in the original board?

Unfortunately we cannot pay for any additional apps so they are not an option!
