Hi!

In Jan. 2024 features updates, it stated that the People and Connect Boards questions in public forms has been fully release. I can see the People column when building a form but not the connect board. Is there a step I’m missing?

Hey Natalia!

Charlotte here from the monday team! :wave:

So sorry for the confusion caused here - the connect boards column in forms has still yet to be released! But it’s coming soon!

Sorry we can’t provide an ETA yet but hopefully this helps you not go crazy looking for it yet! :sweat_smile: We’re excited to share it with everyone soon!

Hey @Nataliaru

Nachliel from Easyapps here

In the meantime, you can try out our monday form builder app Easyform; it supports Connected Boards questions, allowing you to show the items of Board B as options in a dropdown question in a Board A form:
Organization connected board Board

Other features of our connected boards column are

  • Limiting selection to a single item
  • Displaying items from multiple connected boards
  • Limiting select options to items from specific boards where a column is connected to multiple boards
  • Pro plan feature - item default values support - set default values for connected board columns that are hidden in the form.

In addition to that, we offer:

  • Upload files to your board’s file columns, with support for:
    • Allowing only specific file types, such as images or pdf
    • Limiting the number of files that can be uploaded
    • Setting a maximum for file size
    • Manually retrying uploads if some or all of them failed
  • Set default values for the response item’s hidden group, status, connected board, and dropdown columns. To do so, select Item default values from the Settings menu.
  • Add the item’s group as just another field to the form.
  • Control the page’s top margin with the ability to set different values for desktop and mobile. To do so, select Page from the Settings menu.

If you’re interested in creating styled forms that better match your brand and embed perfectly on your web page, you can check out our Monday.com app Easyform and our extensive documentation site.

You can set up a free demo here or contact us at support@easyappshq.com.

Here is an example of our form in action:

I hope this helps,

Oh, so sad to hear this as my client was very excited for this feature. :crossed_fingers: that it will come out sooner than later.
