Is it possible to make the comments to be mirrored/connected between same item on two boards? I do not see such option, but there is a column text.
Hey!
It is possible to mirror a text column between boards using the connect boards column and mirror column. That said, if you’re referring to the updates section, I am afraid this isn’t currently supported. That said, it is currently on our long-term roadmap and you can check out the existing feature request here → Shared or mirrored updates for connected items. Stay tuned for updates in the future!
Hello @BHL ,
Welcome to the monday community! ![]()
Bianca is absolutely correct.
I would like to add that you can use the Conversations App to see the updates between all connected items.
Hope this helps!

Hi there,
We recently published a comprehensive guide that demonstrates how to resolve this issue. The guide provides a step-by-step process for synchronizing updates between high-level board items and multiple connected child board items, eliminating the need to duplicate your items across multiple boards. Additionally, this solution is compatible with 2-way board connections.
When an update is posted on a high-level board item, it is automatically propagated to all the connected child board items, ensuring that they receive the latest information. Conversely, when an update is posted on a child board, it is sent to the high-level board connected items, allowing them to stay informed as well.
This seamless synchronization ensures that the high-level board item aggregates the updates from the child board items, while the child board items can conveniently view updates from the high-level board items.
Here’s the link to the guide: https://community.monday.com/t/seamlessly-sync-updates-conversations-across-connected-monday-com-boards/117493
And here’s a demo of the solution:
Hey @BHL,
We developed an app called Connected Boards Automations that solves this exact use case.
Here is how it works →
When an update is created on item/subitem, copy the update to all connected items.
There are many other connect and sync options but I hope this answer your question.
You can find it in the monday.com marketplace in the platform or here - https://monday.com/marketplace/10000321
Hope that helps and if any capability is missing in order to meet your use case. Feel free to send me an email at daniel@fantasymedia.io
Thanks!

Hey @BHL ,
The easiest way without having to configure automations for each board, it to try the Mirror Item Multiple Boards app.
What You Can Do with Mirror item -
Add the SAME ITEM ON MULTIPLE BOARDS with live sync and full context
Sync UPDATES + REPLIES in real time for items and subitems
Set up automations like “When status changes to something, mirror item to target board and group”
Create a Master Board with items/subitems from multiple boards
Add a subitem from one board as a main item on another board
Keep your boards clean and connected — no Mirror Columns or Connect Boards needed
