Settings up an automation based on a mirrored column?

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?

Have you had any response to 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:

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

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