Introduction

In this guide, we’ll go over how to create the Monday Metrics for BlinkMetrics.

Make sure that you have a Monday Connection created before you dive into this guide.

Creating Monday Metrics

Before we can set up a Scorecard in BlinkMetrics, we’ll need to create all of the Metrics that you want to track from the Monday Connection source.

1. Go to the Metrics Page

To create a Monday metric, click on the Settings cog icon in the header > select the Metrics menu item. This will open the Metrics page. Next, click the Add Metric button.

Dropdown menu with “Metrics” highlighted above the Metric page’s search and filter panel.

2. Select Source Metric

Next, you’ll need to select Source Metric from the Choose a Metric Type popup. Click Create to get started.

Modal with three metric type options: Source, Calculated, and Manual.

Select Monday from the list of Sources.

Step 1 of the metric setup with “Monday” selected as the data source.

3. Connect Source

Choose the Monday connection you previously set up.

Make sure that you have a Monday Connection created before creating metrics.

4. Select Metric

From the list of available Monday metrics, pick the one you’d like to track in your BlinkMetrics Scorecards.

5. Set Up Metric

In this step, select the specific board or workspace in Monday from which the metric should pull data. There may be additional fields depending on the metric that you’re setting up to make sure the data is targeted correctly.

6. Finalize Metric Details

Here, you’ll customize the details of your metric:

  • Give it a name
  • Optionally add a description or set a goal
  • Choose a format (like number, percentage, or currency)
  • Set privacy preferences
  • You can also assign it to a Scorecard—but no worries if you don’t have one yet. You can always add it later.

Click “Finish” to save and activate your new metric.

Add to a Scorecard

Once your metrics are created, organize them using Scorecards. This lets you view multiple metrics from different sources all in one place.

And that’s it! You’re now tracking Monday data in BlinkMetrics like a pro.

Note on Columns

When creating your metrics that use the Monday Columns, the dropdowns should include all supported column types. However, if you find one that’s not covered, just let us know.
