If you use multiple boards to manage your work, keeping items in sync can be a challenge. Our app Mirror Item Multiple Boards makes this easier by allowing you to mirror entire groups of items to another board with a single button click.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Set up the automation

  1. Go to Automations on your board.

  2. In the search bar, type Mirror Item Multiple Boards.

  3. Choose one of these automation recipes:

    • When button clicked – mirror all items to same group in Target Board

    • When button clicked – mirror all items from Board Group to Target Board Target Group

  4. Follow the prompts to select your Target Board (and Target Group, if needed), then click Add to board.

Step 2: Run the sync

  1. In your board, look for the Button column.

  2. Click any one button.

    • You only need to click once — no need to click each button.

Step 3: What happens next

  • All items in the group will be mirrored to the selected board/group.

  • You’ll get a notification once syncing is complete.

Why this is useful

  • Quickly copy and sync items across boards without manual work.

  • Keep groups aligned across multiple boards.

  • Ensure everyone is always looking at the same data.

If you want to bulk sync or mirror items across multiple boards in monday.com, the native route is to use the Connect Boards column together with Mirror columns. That lets you pick items from one or more boards to show synced data on your current board—think of it like pulling live updates from across boards.

But if you’re after something cleaner, where the same item actually exists on multiple boards and stays synced (like status, dates, updates), there’s a handy app called “Same Item Multiple Boards.” It lets you display one item across several boards, and any updates you make anywhere are reflected everywhere automatically. You can even use automations to add items to other boards based on triggers like status changes.

In short:

  • Use Connect + Mirror columns for manual sync setup.

  • Or go app-first with “Same Item Multiple Boards” for automatic syncing.
