Currently the following column types are not supported by DocuGen: (fear not, we are working hard with monday.com’s developers to make those column types available in DocuGen.)
- Formula columns are generally supported but have some limitations. Refer to this article for more details.
- Link columns are supported but will not be clickable when inserted in your generated document
- Auto-Number, Rating, and Progress Tracking columns are not supported and will be blank if included in your generated documents
- Time Tracking columns will only display the display the hours component when inserted in a DocuGen document. For example, if the Time Tracking column displays "3h 21m 17s" in the monday.com board, it will display "3" in documents generated by DocuGen.
- World Clock columns will display the time zone but not the actual time in your generated documents
- Checkbox columns
-
- When inserted directly inside a document, checkbox columns are partially supported as they will appear as the lower-case letter "v" when checked (blank when unchecked.) If you would like this to appear inside a checkbox, insert the column placeholders inside a small one-by-one table in your document. The placeholder will probably be difficult to manage inside the tiny table, so start with a wide column, test the placeholder, then narrow down the column to the desired size. Make sure you set the following options in Microsoft Word > Table Properties:
- Under Table tab > Options: uncheck the option "Automatically resize to fit contents"
- Under Row tab: make sure the "Row height is: Exactly".
- Under Table tab > Options: uncheck the option "Automatically resize to fit contents"
- When used inside a formula, checkbox columns are supported as long as they are used as a true/false value in the formula without an operator like =. For example, a checkbox column called "Accept" can be used like this:
IF({Accept}, "Congrats", "Try again")
... but cannot be used like this:
IF({Accept} = TRUE, "Congrats", "Try again").

- Mirror Columns are generally supported but have some limitations when pointing to formulas or if they contain multiple items. Refer to this article for more details.
Make sure to uncheck the above columns from DocuGen Settings before generating documents.
