mcp
Enable AI agents to work reliably - giving them secure access to structured data, tools to take action, and the context needed to make smart decisions.
No outside reports on file
Use this connector only with a dedicated, low-privilege Monday.com account and monitor all AI-driven changes closely, since the AI has direct control over your project data.

About MCP
This is an MCP connector that links AI agents to Monday.com, a work management platform. It gives AI agents access to structured data from Monday.com projects and tasks, plus tools to take actions like creating or updating items.
Who it’s for
Teams using Monday.com who want to let AI assistants read and modify their project data. It's designed for businesses that need AI to help manage tasks, workflows, or reporting within Monday.com.
Alternatives
- Zapier MCP or native integrations: Use Zapier's automation tools for Monday.com without direct AI control.
- Monday.com API client libraries: Build custom integrations with strict guardrails instead of using a general MCP connector.
- Other work management MCPs: Look for connectors to Asana, Jira, or Notion if switching platforms is an option.
Setup
Check these steps against the project’s own instructions before running anything.
Follow the project's README. The package is published as @mondaydotcomorg/monday-api-mcp on npm. Check the GitHub repository for Claude Desktop configuration examples and authentication setup instructions.

Risks to watch for
- Monday.com account access: The AI gets whatever permissions the connected Monday.com account has, which could include sensitive projects, client data, or financial information.
- Unintended task changes: The AI could modify, delete, or create tasks if misconfigured or tricked by a misleading prompt, disrupting workflows.
- Data leakage in responses: Project names, descriptions, and task details could be leaked in AI responses or logs if not carefully managed.
- Weak or stolen credentials: If the Monday.com API key or authentication tokens are exposed, anyone can impersonate that account and access all linked data.
- Prompt injection risks: A malicious task description or comment in Monday.com could contain hidden instructions that trick the AI into performing unintended actions.
How to lower the risk
Least-privilege permissions
- Create a separate Monday.com user account with only the boards and permissions the AI actually needs.
- Restrict the API key to read-only if possible, or limit write access to specific boards.
Network isolation
- Run the MCP server on a secure, isolated network if possible.
- Use VPNs or private networks to limit exposure of Monday.com API calls.
Monitoring
- Log all AI actions and changes made through the connector.
- Set up alerts in Monday.com to catch unusual bulk edits or deletions.
Red flags to watch for
- AI suddenly creating many tasks or bulk-updating unrelated items.
- Unexpected API errors or authentication failures in logs.
- Changes to sensitive boards or fields the AI shouldn't touch.
