Existing functionality that has now bee removed - Ability to search a board through the URL
What are you trying to achieve
Hi!
We were previously making use of the “term” query parameter when accessing a monday board. We have been redirecting users from one of our applications to a link similar to this:
When doing this, the search term is transferred to the search bar on the page. Previously on page load the search was actually being performed and the group that matched the search criteria was being displayed first.
Something has changed recently and the search isn’t being performed on page load (search field is still being populated though). A character has to be removed from the search field and re-entered for the search to trigger.
Is this something you can look at adding back in please. Appreciate it is not supported functionality but it has been working for some time so would like it reinstated.
When I try this in the browser, it works as expected. Since there have been some recent changes to the monday.com APIs, it might be worth logging a ticket with monday.com support to confirm if that’s related.
Thanks for sharing this. It looks like a recent change in monday.com has stopped the board search from running automatically on page load. The term parameter still fills the search box, but the search itself no longer triggers until the user edits the text.
Hello everyone! Tom from monday here. I was able to confirm internally that we did not make any changes to the search term in the API; anyone who wants help with looking into this personally is welcome to DM me. I’m happy to connect you with out tech support team to investigate this!
