Objects are a core component of the API that represent a generic item within the monday.com platform. They can represent boards, dashboards, workflows, or other specialized objects. Each object is of a specific type, which is used to create new objects or filter results from the objects query.

Queries

You can retrieve object type data via the API through the object_types_unique_keys query.

• Returns an array containing metadata about a collection of object types
• Can only be queried directly at the root; can't be nested within another query

query {
  object_types_unique_keys {
    app_name
    app_feature_name
    description
    object_type_unique_key
  }
}

{
  "data": {
    "object_types_unique_keys": [
      {
        "app_name": "Monday Workflows",
        "app_feature_name": "Workflow",
        "description": "",
        "object_type_unique_key": "monday_workflows::workflow"
      },
      {
        "app_name": "Service",
        "app_feature_name": "Portal",
        "description": "",
        "object_type_unique_key": "service::portal-object"
      }
    ]
  },
  "extensions": {
