Scripting for monday.com Powered by Stitch It
Your complete solution to automating and integrating monday.com
Read on to get started with Stitch It in no time!
The concept
The Scripting for monday.com experience is delivered by a standalone app called Stitch It. Stitch It was originally conceived as an integration app focused on Atlassian products such as Jira and Confluence, but now natively supports monday.com after demand from our users.
The Stitch It app enables you to connect your monday.com instance seamlessly using a managed connector, then manipulate the monday.com API using TypeScript/JavaScript. This allows you to create any automation or process in monday.com that you can express through code, as long as the monday.com API offers the methods you require.
As well as using the monday.com connector to build scripts which operate on your monday.com instance, you can also use any of the other managed connectors included in Stitch It or the Generic HTTP connector to build scripts which integrate any of your other apps.
Getting started with the basics
Get to know the basics including Managed Connectors, Event Listeners to trigger scripts and the TypeScript/JavaScript editor, plus see Stitch It in action on a monday.com example.

Templates
Stitch It contains a number of monday.com templates to help you get started. Even if they don't solve your challenge straight out of the box, they're a great way to understand how to implement common actions such as modifying items and columns, performing calculations and acquiring external data.
You can also explore the templates for apps beyond monday.com too!

- Roll up subitem value to parent in monday.com when a subitem changes
- Set item date when a monday.com item status in another board changes

- When an item is created in monday.com send a notification in Slack

Frequently Asked Questions
Our vision is a scripting tool embedded within monday.com as a dedicated monday.com app. Until we get there, our standalone Stitch It app provides the core Scripting for monday.com functionality.

The Scripting for monday.com experience is provided through an external app called Stitch It. Your entire Scripting for monday.com experience will then take place in Stitch It.
You can use it for both! To automate your monday.com instance where the native monday.com automation rules are insufficient, simply connect your instance to Stitch It and write your automation scripts. However, you can also connect your other tools such as Jira, Slack or ServiceNow to Stitch It and write scripts that implement processes that run across all of your tools.
