Make.com/Integromat - using and reading the "Long_text" column

Hello,

Problem: using the “long_text” field in Monday.com with external automations (such as with Make.com or Zapier) is difficult. Often the long-text field can’t be read, for instance, if using the “Search Items in the Monday.com Board by Column Values” and then sending the long-text information to another module. Instead, you need to write an “Execute a GraphQL Query”.

Solution: To the information in the long_text field to another module in Make.com, here’s what to write using the “Execute a GraphQL Query”:

query {
   items (ids:{6127608317}) {
      column_values (ids: ["long_text", "long_text_2"]) {
         id
         value
         text
      }
   }
}```
