Item-view-widgets of 'connect boards' makes it easy to add items to other boards

In our environment we’re very restrictive on new items being created in the boards. Therefore the ‘item-creation-form’ is perfect for out needs.
However, in the item-view you can add in the widget ‘Connect boards’ and through this widgets the user can easily add items to other boards without restriction. This makes is very easy to clutter the environment en defeats the point of the ‘Item-creation-form’.
Is there a way to restrict adding a new item on another board through this widget in the item-view?

Hi Vivianne, this is MK from Mindflows. In your setup, the Item-creation-form is a great way to restrict item creation, but the “Connect Boards” widget in the item-view allows users to easily add items to other boards, bypassing these restrictions. Unfortunately, there’s no built-in feature in monday.com to directly limit item creation through the widget.

One possible solution is to implement automations or permissions to restrict access to specific boards or columns, ensuring users only add items through the approved form. Another option is to hide or limit the visibility of the “Connect Boards” widget for specific users or roles, if needed. Let me know if this helps! :slight_smile:
