I want to create an automation that every time i use a dropdown on an item, it will change also the subitem dropdown by the same name.

using this query

query {

  me {

    name

  }

  boards(ids: [idnumber]) {

    name

    columns {

      title

      id

      type

      settings_str

    }

  }

}

i get the items values.
It seems the values of the item “language” column and the subitem “language” are diffrenet.

for example DE changes to NL.

How can i get a query of the same for subitems?
since settings_str is not avaiable on a subitem level.

Hey Barak,
Daniel from Fantasy Media Team.
We developed an app called “Subitem Automations” (monday.com: Apps Marketplace)

Amongst other capabilities it allows syncing values from parent item to its subitems.
We also offer a very extensive free plan.

Check it out and let me know if it’s helpful.

Hey, iv’e tried it right now but i have a problem.
The id’s of subitems and items are diffrenet, so it sync up the wrong values.
Do you know if i can change it so it will sync properly?

I made a new columns so it will copy from the parent and now it works!
Thanks!
