Copy subitems from another board by a connected item column

Hello,
I have in board A, a connected column (let’s call it column Z) to board B.
Once i will choose an item (from board b items) in column Z, I would like that all
subitems of the chosen item will be copied and connected from board B to board A
as Subitems.
I thought that the “Subitem auto” integration will help me but it was limited.
Waiting for your help

Hi,

You can do this using make.com

  1. Send a webhook to make.com when column Z changes.
  2. Iterate the subitems of the selected parent item in make.com.
  3. Create subitems on Board A with column values.

Hope this helps

Hey @alon_h,

I’m Daniel, we’re the creators of Subitem Automations. We’re now working on a new version that will allow to copy subitems from one board to the other. It should be out later this week.

Can you reach out to me at daniel@fantasymedia.io so we can discuss to make sure it meets your needs and make the relevant changes if needed?

Hi Joseph,

Thank you very much for your reply :smiley:
I understood how to work with another app which called “same item multiple boards”.
look at Rodneysw reply beneath yours.
It is a very good app but it is not meet my need.
My condition was that the subitems will be connected by the value in column Z.
I see you undersood this condition.
I almost sure that you can help me but your answer is to short and it has no
video or detailed explanation.
waiting for your reply
TODA!

Hi Joseph,
Indeed, it helped me understand that there is a way to accomplish my goal.
It seems that you are highly skilled on Mnday.com.
Thank you very much for this video and for your time.
For now, i wil leave this kind of implementation (quite complicated) to our Monday.com partner that we are working with.
I will try to use lower grade solutions for the problem i showed.
Thank you again and i hope to get more good solutions for you in the future.
take care…

TODA RABA!

Hey @alon_h

Just to be clear, you want subitems in Board A to be connected to subitems in Board B?

Hi Alon, I missed out from this thread so just wanted to share that the VLOOKUP app is perfect for the usecase of copy subitems from another monday.com board based on a key value - which is an alternative to the connect board functionality.

Here is a demo. I hope it helps
