Generate doc with bullet points

[shaunafitzgoo (Shauna)]

Hi all.

I have a board for courses, and the courses are linked to another board for key messages to promote each course as below where we have course A connected to message a b and c.

I want to be able to generate a doc to have something like the following:

Course title: Course A

Key Messages:

• Message A
• Message B
• Message C

But with Monday docs, the connected items come as one long paragraph separated by a comma, and looks like it can’t be formatted.

Does anyone know of ways I could do this?

Thanks so much.

Hi @shaunafitzgoo

This is a Docs limitation. Connected Boards values always come through as one comma separated string and can’t be auto formatted into bullets.

Best options

Use a Mirror column instead of plain text. Limited but sometimes cleaner
Generate the doc via automation Make or Zapier so each connected item is added on its own line
Store messages as separate items or subitems and reference those in the doc
