Configuring Monday Board for WhatsApp Sync

To set up WhatsApp sync on your Monday board, follow these step-by-step instructions. This setup enables seamless integration between TimelinesAI and Monday CRM, allowing WhatsApp messages to sync as items on your board.

Step 1: Navigate to the board within your Monday CRM where you want to sync WhatsApp contacts.

Step 2: At the top of your board, locate and click the Integrate button. This will open the integration marketplace where you can search for apps.

Step 3: In the search bar, type WhatsApp Chats - TimelinesAI to find the app. Select it once it appears in the results to proceed with the configuration.

Step 4: Select the integration template: “When new incoming chat received for WhatsApp Account number, create an item.” Click on this option to open its settings for further configuration.

Step 5: When prompted, select the WhatsApp account connected on TimelinesAI for which you want to apply this automation template. You have two choices:

Option 1: Choose a specific WhatsApp account from the list to limit the automation recipe to that particular account.

Option 2: Select "Any" to make the automation recipe work across all WhatsApp accounts connected to your TimelinesAI workspace.

Step 6: Customize the fields that will populate on your Monday board. Click item to start mapping the relevant fields.

Step 7: To configure the automation effectively, map each field in the current board to the corresponding data from WhatsApp chats. Below is a detailed guide to mapping all the available fields:

• Group: Select the group within the Monday.com board where the items will be created. For example, you can select "To-Do" or any custom group relevant to your workflow.

• Name: Map this field to sync the contact's name automatically. This ensures that the item's title reflects the contact's name for easier identification.

• Phone: Link this field to sync the WhatsApp contact’s phone number. This provides direct access to the contact details within your board.

• Link: Set this to display the WhatsApp chat link. This makes it easy to jump directly to the chat from Monday.com, saving time in communication.

• Status: Use this field to track the progress or current status of the chat. For example, you can create labels like "Pending," "In Progress," or "Resolved" to monitor each interaction's lifecycle.

• Item Update: This field can be used to store important notes or updates about the conversation. It helps in keeping a record of any context or follow-up actions related to the chat.

• Due Date: Map this field to set deadlines for follow-up or resolution. This is especially useful for time-sensitive tasks or customer inquiries.

After mapping, click on the Done button to apply the configuration.

Step 8: After configuring your automation template, click on the "Create Automation" button.

Monday CRM will now activate this template automatically, allowing WhatsApp messages to sync as items on your chosen board 🔥

How Does the Integration Work?

With the recipe now configured, each new incoming WhatsApp chat will automatically sync its contact information to the Monday board you selected. The sync process will adhere to the parameters and fields you mapped during the setup.

How It Works

• Contact Creation: When a new WhatsApp message is received, the system will first search for the contact’s phone number on your Monday board.

• Auto-Creation for New Contacts: If the phone number is not found on the board, the system will create a new contact entry for you, adding all mapped information such as the contact name, phone number, chat link, and any other specified details.

Expanding Your Automation

You can set up additional templates with different triggers and actions to meet various workflow needs. For example, you might create separate templates for outgoing messages, group chats, or status updates. Refer to the next section for more details on the resources and template options available to tailor the integration to your preferences.
