Create Templates
Create any type of document you need, with fully customizable templates and your own branding. The only limit is your imagination.
Create your own template
Feel free to create your own template from scratch or customize one of your existing business documents, such as quotes, invoices, reports and the like. Either way, all templates must be in Microsoft Word format (.docx).
How does it work?
1. Create a .docx file.
2. Board Level or Item Level?
Decide on what kind of information you want to output in your document (this determines the kind of placeholders you will need to use in the next step):
The entire board or specific columns will be output as a table, including all items. Possible use cases: project report, charts, timesheet, tasks, product/service list, lead pipeline, …
The information of a single or several items from your monday board can be included in the document.
Possible use cases: contract, proposal, agreement, certificate, invoice, letter, …
3. Insert placeholders
Insert placeholders where you want to include data from your monday boards in your document. You can retrieve general information by adding placeholders within two curly braces.
Examples:
{{User.name}} – Name of monday user
{{Board.name}} – Name of monday board
To include the information from specific columns of your monday board in a table, a placeholder consists of the column title within two curly braces:
{{ColumnTitle}}
Examples:
{{Status}} – outputs the status column for all items in a board
{{Due Date}} – lists the due dates of all items in a board
To retrieve the value from a specific item (row) in your board, the placeholder consists of the prefix “Item.” and the column title within two curly braces:
{{Item.ColumnTitle}}
Examples:
{{Item.Status}} – data from an item’s status column
{{Item.Due Date}} – an item’s due date
