Automation Recipe Setup Guides

Here is a detailed breakdown of each recipe and its specific use case.

Recipe Types

Recipe 1

Basic Form Integration

Use this recipe when you want every single submission from a specific form to create a new item or subitem in monday.com, without any exceptions.

Recipe Structure:

From {Account}, when a new entry in {Form} is received, create an {Item/Subitem} in this {Group/Item} with this {Typeform Data}

Configuration Steps:

Select your Typeform {Account} and {Form ID}
Choose to create an {Item/Subitem}
Select the destination {Group/Item}
Map your fields in the {Typeform Data} section

Data Mapping

Our integration provides comprehensive data mapping capabilities with intelligent data transformation.

Successful Mappings

Text → Text Column Direct mapping
Number → Number Column Direct mapping
"45.6" → Number Column Auto-converted
Email → Email Column Validated & mapped

⚠️ Fallback Behavior

"Hello" → Number Column Left empty
"Invalid" → Date Column Left empty
Missing data → Any Column Left empty

Priority: We always prioritize item creation over perfect data mapping.

How Data Mapping Works

1

Analyze Data

We analyze the Typeform response data type and format

2

Transform

Intelligent transformation to match Monday.com column requirements

3

Create Item

Create the item/subitem, leaving incompatible fields empty if needed

🎯 Best Practices

  • Set up your Monday.com columns before configuring the integration
  • For subitems, create at least one mock subitem to ensure column visibility
  • Match data types when possible (text to text, number to number, etc.)
  • Use validation in your Typeform to ensure data quality

Troubleshooting

Common issues and their solutions to help you get up and running quickly.

Common Issues & Solutions

"Select a Typeform account first"

Issue: Trying to select a form before choosing an account.

Solution: Always select your Typeform account first, then choose the form.

Fields showing no available options

Issue: Dropdown fields appear empty or show no selectable options when configuring the recipe.

This happens when you try to configure dependent fields before setting up their prerequisites. Many fields rely on previous selections to populate their options.

Solution: Configure fields in the correct dependency order:

  • • First: Connect Typeform account → Select form → Choose questions
  • • Then: Configure answer conditions → Select Monday.com workspace/board
  • • Finally: Choose item/subitem options → Set up data mapping

No subitem columns visible

Issue: Monday.com board has no existing subitems.

Solution: Create at least one subitem manually with the desired columns before setting up the recipe.

Some monday.com column values are empty

Issue: Data type mismatch between Typeform response and Monday.com column.

Solution: This is expected behavior. Items are still created with valid data, incompatible fields are left empty.
