Locating Subitem Board ID

Hello! Could someone help me figure out how to locate a Subitem Board ID? Thanks in advance!

hi @Amandalindsey

Through the UI you can open a subitem (as if you want to write an update) and your subitem boardId for that specific subitem can be found in the url

xxx.monday.com/boards/123456789/pulses/987654321

Note that this no longer seems to be true. I used to use this method but noticed recently that when opening a subitem (as if to add an update), the board ID shown in the URL is still the parent board ID. I have to use the API to get the subitem board ID.

hi @avp

Good catch. Indeed the URL shown when opening a subitem has been changed recently. The only option I see is to use the API. In the API playground you can enter this one:

query{boards(ids:123456789){columns(ids:"subitems"){settings_str}}}

Where 123456789 is the boardId of the parent. The output will show soemting like:

{\"allowMultipleItems\":true,\"itemTypeName\":\"column.subtasks.title\",\"displayType\":\"BOARD_INLINE\",\"boardIds\":[987654321]}"

Where 987654321 is the boardId of the board holding the subitems.
