Monday Custom Automation Rules
Create if-this-then-that rules for your Monday boards without coding.
Nora lets you build automation rules: when an item gets label X, move it to column Y and notify person Z. Eliminate repetitive manual work.
Monday's built-in automations are powerful but limited. Nora adds custom rules: 'When Status = Emergency, move to High Priority column AND email manager AND change color to red.' You build rules via a simple UI: Trigger (status change, label added, due date reached) → Actions (move, email, update field, add label). Nora executes rules in real-time. This is invaluable for complex workflows: customer escalations, finance sign-offs, legal reviews—anything with a consistent trigger-action pattern. Rules can be shared across teams.
Runs real-time rule execution using Monday.com, run by your Project Manager.
