Text

The text column contains any text data you want stored in a column on your board(s). It is similar to the Long Text column.

You can update a text column with both a simple string and a JSON string.

Simple strings

To update the text column, send a simple String value.

For example: "Sample text".

JSON

To update the text column with a JSON value, send the value as a string.

For example: "\"Sample text\"".

Code example

mutation {
  change_multiple_column_values(item_id:11111, board_id:22222, column_values: "{\"text5\" : \"Sample text\"}") {
    id
  }
}

fetch ("https://api.monday.com/v2", {
  method: 'post',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',

  body: JSON.stringify({
    query : "mutation ($myBoardId:Int!, $myItemId:Int!, $myColumnValues:JSON!) { change_multiple_column_values(item_id:$myItemId, board_id:$myBoardId, column_values: $myColumnValues) { id }}",
    variables : JSON.stringify({
      myBoardId: YOUR_BOARD_ID,
      myItemId: YOUR_ITEM_ID,
      myColumnValues: "{\"text5\" : \"Sample text\"}"
    })
