When you create a new item in the automations panel it’s possible to map the files column from the existing board to the new board. However, this feature doesn’t exist in the Workflow center.
Unfortunately, this means we won’t be able to completely simplify our automations and will still have to have a step that exists outside of the workflow on the board because we need to maintain files from one object to another.
Hi Kassidy,
You could set up a simple flow in Make or Zapier that downloads files from your existing Monday board and uploads them onto the new item you create elsewhere. It’s not as seamless as native functionality, but it does keep everything organized without too much hassle.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Harsh

I was reporting the same request.
It is very useful for us to recreate items in other boards, maintaining the relationship between them, and in this process, send the files, as different teams access them and the permissions between boards are different, making it not feasible to use mirror columns.

This is a capability in the automation center, but not in the workflow center, so I don’t see why that can’t be adjusted to be consistent across the platform.
