Here is a response while working with integromat. Support at Monday ask me to post this here.

Hey Adam

Here is a response from the developers:

1) dropdown and labels. I have removed the changed_at column. To be sure."mutation { create_item (board_id: 283709503, , group_id: “www48”, item_name: “WWWWZZsdsdsada”, column_values: “{ "status": {"index":1}, "tags": {"tag_ids":[66267,62086]}, "dropdown": {"ids":[1,2]} }”) { id } }"ID dropdown
Value {“ids”:[1,2]}

Additional info {“label”:null} Everything works. No labels are returned. So my tip is that this must be changed on Monday’s side. I guess I can do nothing for this. As workaround, the customer can use the module Get item’s column value with checked the parameter Map labels where I have implemented mapping labels even for the dropdown column.

Parsed valueCollection
IDsArray
1 1
2 2

LabelsArray
1 ddd
2 eee

2) It would be nice to inform Monday and ask them if it is possible to set changed_at value immediately when creating an item (even from an API) because then I am able to provide a useful module to Watch all items based on this changed_at value. Otherwise NOT. I had to switch this module off because of the Tag’s issue where I was forced to remove setting this changed_at value from our side.

Please let me know if you’ll have additional questions about it.
Thank you for understanding!

Kind regards,

Hey Adam,

Looks like there are two feature requests here – can you tell me if I’m interpreting the email correctly?

  1. Send the label in the “additional_info” field when using a dropdown column
  2. Add “changed_at” metadata so you can track when an item was created

Is that correct?

Cheers,
Dipro

Sort of. It’s just how the api is being read. When pulling the info from a dropdown using the code above you can see the label is returned as Null. Meaning it’s not getting all the info even though it’s the correct phrasing. The 2 part of it is to help make everything else work together.
