As shown in the figure, I selected a project that contains a file. What I want to do is, when I click on the app, I want to pass the file information into the app

Hello there @aaronchen,

You can use monday’s SDK to get the context, and you would have the ID/s of the selected item/s.

Then you can use the API (you can use the SDK as well) to get the information about the column values (in this case a files column).

I hope that helps!

Cheers,
Matias

Here is the documentation for the API you’d use, previously linked. It is a GraphQL API.

Which api should I use to query the information on the board

Hi @aaronchen,

As Cody mentioned above, you would need to use our GraphQL platform API. Specifically, you would likely query boards to get board information.

I linked the documentation above - please first take a look at the documentation then let us know if you have any specific questions after reading.

Best,
Rachel
