💻 monday API MCP Server

The @mondaydotcomorg/monday-api-mcp package provides a plug-and-play server implementation for the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It allows AI agents to interact with the monday.com API without needing to build complex integrations.

🤖 Agent Toolkit

The @mondaydotcomorg/agent-toolkit package provides a powerful set of tools and utilities for building AI agents that interact with the monday.com API, supporting both OpenAI and Model Context Protocol (MCP) implementations.

🏁 Complete Installation Guide

Step 1: Create a monday.com Account

If you don't already have a monday.com account:

Go to monday.com and sign up for an account
Create your first workspace and board to get started

Step 2: Generate an API Token

To interact with monday.com's API, you'll need an API token:

Log in to your monday.com account
Click on your avatar in the bottom-left corner
Select "Developers"
Click "My access tokens" on the left menu
Copy your personal access token

Step 3: Configure Your MCP Client

For Claude Desktop

Open Claude Desktop
Go to Settings → MCP Servers
Add a new server with this configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "monday-api-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "@mondaydotcomorg/monday-api-mcp",
        "-t",
        "your_monday_api_token"
      ]
    }
  }
}

For Cursor or Other MCP Clients

Add to your settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "monday-api-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "@mondaydotcomorg/monday-api-mcp",
        "-t",
        "your_monday_api_token"
      ],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Step 5: Test Your Integration

Ask Claude or your AI assistant a question like:
- "What items do I have in board 123?"
- "Can you create a board to manage my project?"
Your assistant should now be able to interact with your monday.com account!

🔮 Dynamic API Tools (Beta)

Our Dynamic API Tools feature represents a significant advancement in how AI agents can interact with monday.com. While our standard tools cover common operations, Dynamic API Tools unlock the full potential of the monday.com GraphQL API.

What are Dynamic API Tools?

Dynamic API Tools provide AI agents with complete, adaptable access to monday.com's entire API surface. This means your AI assistant can:

Access any API endpoint - Not just the predefined operations we've built
Generate custom GraphQL queries - Create exactly the query needed for any situation
Dynamically explore monday.com's schema - Understand all available data types and their relationships

Key Dynamic API Tools

| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | all_monday_api | Generate and execute any GraphQL query or mutation dynamically | | get_graphql_schema | Fetch monday.com's GraphQL schema to understand available operations | | get_type_details | Retrieve detailed information about specific GraphQL types |

Unlocked Possibilities

With Dynamic API Tools, your AI assistants can:

Create complex reports spanning multiple boards, items, and data points
Perform batch operations across many items simultaneously
Integrate deeply with monday.com's advanced features like docs, workspaces, and activity logs
Discover new capabilities as monday.com adds features to their API

How to Enable

Dynamic API Tools are in beta and disabled by default. Enable them with:

npx @mondaydotcomorg/monday-api-mcp -t your_token --enable-dynamic-api-tools true

⚠️ Note: Dynamic API Tools require full API access and are not compatible with read-only mode.

🖥️ MCP Server Configuration

| Argument | Flags | Description | Required | Default | |----------|-------|-------------|----------|---------| | monday API Token | --token, -t | monday.com API token | Yes | - | | API Version | --version, -v | monday.com API version | No | current | | Read Only Mode | --read-only, -ro | Enable read-only mode | No | false | | Dynamic API Tools | --enable-dynamic-api-tools, -edat | Enable dynamic API tools | No | false |

🔐 Authentication & Security

The server requires a monday.com API token to authenticate with the monday.com API. You can provide this token in two ways:

Command line argument: -t your_monday_api_token
Environment variable: monday_token=your_monday_api_token

Security Best Practices

Never share your API token in public repositories or discussions
Consider using read-only mode (--read-only) when you only need to retrieve data
Regularly rotate your API tokens for enhanced security
