monday.com to Eledo PDF Data Mapping
To print monday.com data into a PDF document, you need to define data expressions in your Eledo template.
You can use data expressions to print values from a monday.com board, item, and subitems. This guide explains how to build them.
Board
Currently, only the following fields can be printed from a monday.com board.
| monday.com column | Eledo data expression | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| id | id | Board ID (number) |
| name | name | Board name (text) |
| description | description | Board description (text) |
Item
monday.com items can also contain custom columns. These are represented by their technical name in data expressions, not by their label.
It may be difficult to find a column’s technical name. To simplify this, use the data structure import available in the Eledo template's Input Fields menu.
Select your monday.com connection, choose your board, and click Import.
| monday.com column | Eledo data expression | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| id | item.id | Item unique identifier (number) |
| name | item.name | Item name (text) |
| state | item.state | Item state (text) |
| updated_at | item.updated_at | Last update date (date) |
| custom_column | item.custom_column | Custom column (text) — replace custom_column with your column's technical name |
Subitems
Subitems are represented as an array attached to the item.
To iterate through the array, use **Block Repetition** with the item.subitems data expression.
Inside the Block Repetition, use only the subitem column names (without any prefix).
| monday.com column | Eledo data expression (within Block Repetition) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| id | id | Subitem unique identifier (number) |
| name | name | Subitem name (text) |
| state | state | Subitem state (text) |
| updated_at | updated_at | Last update date (date) |
| custom_column | custom_column | Custom column (text) — replace custom_column with your column's technical name |
Image Support
monday.com File columns can contain image attachments that can be included in your PDF.
Since a File column can contain multiple attachments, it is represented as an array.
To iterate through the array, use **Block Repetition** with the item.file_column data expression, where file_column is the technical name of your File-type column.
Inside the Block Repetition, use only the file field names (without any prefix).
| File field | Eledo data expression (within Block Repetition) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| assetId | assetId | File unique identifier (number) |
| name | name | File name (text) |
| fileType | fileType | File type (text) |
| isImage | isImage | Indicates whether the file is an image (boolean) |
| url | url | File URL (text) |
| file_extension | file_extension | File extension (text) |
