Target Audience

This workflow is ideal for developers and project managers who use Monday.com and need to handle error reporting efficiently. It is particularly useful for teams that want to automate the logging of errors with detailed information, such as stack traces and error messages, into their project management system. Additionally, it suits users who prefer manual triggers for better control over when the workflow is executed.

Problem Solved

This workflow addresses the challenge of tracking and managing errors that occur during the execution of automated processes. By integrating with Monday.com, it allows users to automatically create items that log error details, including stack traces and error messages, ensuring that teams can quickly identify and resolve issues. This enhances accountability and improves overall project quality by providing a structured approach to error management.

Workflow Steps

  • Error Trigger: The workflow begins with a manual trigger when an error occurs. This node captures the error details from the previous execution.
    2. Monday Node: An item is created in the specified Monday.com board to log the error. The item name includes the unique execution ID for easy reference.
    3. Date & Time Node: The current date and time are retrieved to provide context for when the error occurred.
    4. Code Node: A JavaScript code snippet is executed to extract and escape the stack trace from the error details. This ensures that the stack trace is safely formatted for logging.
    5. Update Node: Finally, the Monday.com item created earlier is updated with detailed information about the error, including the workflow name, error stack, error message, and the current date. This step consolidates all relevant error data into a single location for easy access and review.

    • Customization Guide

    Users can customize this workflow by modifying the following elements:
    - Board ID and Group ID: Change the boardId and groupId in the Monday nodes to target different boards or groups within Monday.com.
    - Column IDs: Update the column_id_for_workflow_name, column_id_for_error_stack, column_id_for_error_message, and column_id_for_date with the actual column IDs from your Monday.com board to ensure the data is logged correctly.
    - Error Handling Logic: Adjust the JavaScript code in the Code node to capture additional error details or format the output differently, depending on your logging needs.
    - Trigger Type: While this workflow is set to manual, users can modify it to be triggered automatically based on specific conditions or events if desired.
