We’re currently trying to set up an automation for our boards.
Board A has a status column. Board B has that status column mirrored in it. We want to set it up so that if Board A status column changes, Board B has an automation triggered by it.
I saw in a blog post from September of 2020 that this was added. However, when I go to create the automation, there is no option for that column. How can we achieve this?

Yeah, I’m having the same issue. It looks like it should be do-able, but I don’t have the option to choose a mirror column for status.

As far as I know it is not possible to trigger automation from a mirror column. What blog post did you see where that was possible?
It is mentioned in an article by Monday themselves:
Hi, today a many times requested feature was announced in the blog section, referring to that mirrored columns are supported by automations. I was surprised to see that there is only one recipe avaliable to work with mirrored data, till now only status columns and in only 1 recipe from all avaliable.
If anyone from Monday.com can clarify this. Thanks.

And it is also discussed and shown in these two community posts:

However, I am also not able to see the mirrored columns…
