Removal as board owner / subscriber for boards created from a template

Hi all - is there a way to automatically remove a template board owner from the boards created from that template?

We have a simple workflow going that, depending on various options, will create a new board using pre-defined templates that I’ve designed for use and want to remain owner of in case changes are needed, someone deletes stuff…etc

But I don’t need to be the owner of any new boards created from the templates and also certainly don’t want notifications on any and all changes!

I know I can go into each new board and mute notifications or at a general level or at an account level for items subscribed to…

Is there a way to remove myself as board owner AND de-subscribe me each time the template is used?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Matthew,
I am not sure that there is a automatic way to do so.
But you could go to Administration → Users → Board ownership → Manage board owners for changing/removing the requisite user

Thanks - I’d arrived at the same conclusion…

Hi @MathewJohnson
If you are using any third party tool you can remove the ownership when the new board is created. You can set up an automation script using Monday.com’s API that removes you as the owner of the new board. The script would trigger every time a new board is created from your template. This can be done by setting up a webhook that catches board creation events and then updates the board ownership.
