Everything monday.com is missing

Six capabilities that unlock your boards' full potential — in one free inline panel.

📥

Importer

v1.6.2

Full-page CSV / Excel importer with a 4-step stepper. Parses monday classic exports natively (groups, parents, indented subitem sections). Smart error recovery names failing columns and lets you skip them & re-run in one click. Recognises multi-level boards with clear rollup-column warnings.

Image Importer

NEW · v1.6

The feature monday.com never built. Drop an .xlsx with images pasted into cells — every image is extracted, anchored to its row, and uploaded to a File column for matching items. Auto-detects monday.com board exports and hand-built sheets alike.

Full guide →
⚡

Bulk Update

Select hundreds of items, pick any column, push a value to all at once. Works on parent items and subitems.

🔍

Query Inspector

v1.5 · API 2026-04

Full-page GraphQL workspace inspired by Salesforce Inspector. 14 ready-made templates, saved query library, table + JSON results, complexity meter, CSV/JSON export.

Full guide →
🗂

Schema Inspector

Explore every column — type, id, settings — for parents and subitems. Auto-detects classic vs multi-level boards (5 nested levels, API 2026-04). One-click copy of column IDs.

🔗

Connect Boards mapping

Map board_relation columns by item NAME — the importer fetches the linked board(s) and resolves names → IDs automatically. Numeric IDs and mixed values also work.

📤

Export & Backup

Export any board to CSV or JSON with one click. Includes items, subitems, all column values, and group structure.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before installing.

Can monday.com import subitems natively?
No — monday.com's built-in CSV import only creates top-level items. It does not support subitems. Monday.com Inspector was built specifically for this. Full import subitems guide →
How do I import subitems from CSV into monday.com?
Install Monday.com Inspector, navigate to your board, click the extension icon → Open Inspector Panel, go to the Import tab, upload your CSV, map columns, and click Start Import. The tool creates subitems under the correct parent items automatically. Step-by-step guide →
How do I bulk update items in monday.com?
In the Items tab, select items using checkboxes. Then go to Actions → Bulk Update, pick a column and value, and click Update. All selected items update at once — parents and subitems. Full guide →
Can I bulk-import images from Excel into a monday.com File column?
Yes — and it's new in v1.6. Monday.com has no native way to upload images at scale from an Excel file. Inspector's Image Importer extracts every image embedded in an .xlsx (anchored to cells), matches each row to a monday item by name or ID, and uploads to the File column you choose. Full guide →
Does it work with monday.com board exports (.xlsx)?
Yes. The extension auto-detects monday.com's native XLSX export format and preserves the full hierarchy: groups, parent items, subitems, and all column values. Export from one board and re-import into another.
What column types are supported for import?
All 18 writable monday.com column types — text, long text, numbers, status, dropdown (single + multi-select), people, date, timeline, checkbox, link, email, phone, rating, country, hour, week, location, world clock — plus Connect Boards (board_relation) and dependency. Read-only types (mirror, formula, auto-number, lookup, creation log, item_id, button, file) are filtered out automatically. Column type guide →
Can I import into a Connect Boards (board_relation) column?
Yes. Put item names from the linked board, item IDs, or a comma-separated mix into your CSV. The Importer fetches the linked board's items once per import and resolves names → IDs automatically — no need to look up IDs by hand. Connect Boards details →
My Connect Boards import fails on every row — what do I do?
As of v1.6.1, the Importer surfaces a specific per-row error explaining what went wrong: either the column has no linked board configured, or your API token can't read the linked board. Use the "Skip Connect Boards / Dependency columns" checkbox at the top of step 3 to bypass the linking entirely — every other mapped column still writes, you just add the connections by hand later. The "📋 Copy all errors" button copies the full failure list to your clipboard for diagnosis. Connect Boards troubleshooting →
What happens if my import shows errors?
New in v1.6.2: when an import finishes with failures, Monday.com Inspector shows a recovery banner that names the column(s) most likely causing the failures and gives you a one-click "Skip these columns & re-run" button. It re-imports everything else immediately — you don't have to map every column. There's also a "Back to column mapping" shortcut and a per-row error table with the exact monday.com message. The rule of thumb: if you see errors, unmatch the flagged columns and run again.
Does it support monday.com's new multi-level boards?
Yes — for reading and querying. Schema viewer, Query Inspector, and the inline panel all auto-detect multi-level boards (API 2026-04). For imports, use a flat CSV with a Parent column rather than monday's native multi-level XLSX export — those exports lose the hierarchy on the way out. Multi-level guide →
Can I run GraphQL queries from the extension?
Yes. The Query Inspector is a full-page GraphQL workspace with 14 ready-made templates, a saved query library, table + JSON results, and a complexity meter. No coding needed. GraphQL guide →
Is Monday.com Inspector free? Any row limits?
Completely free. No row limits, no subscription, no account required. Open source. Your API token stays in your browser — no data goes through any server we control. Privacy Policy →
