Monday.com Board Export to CSV

WHAT IT DOES

This userscript enables seamless export of Monday.com board data to CSV format, capturing all visible columns and items from your current board view. It reads item names, text fields, numbers, dates, status indicators, people assignments, tags, dropdown selections, and checkbox states. The script automatically detects all columns on the board and allows you to select which ones to include in the export. You can choose between comma, semicolon, or tab delimiters, customize the date format, and optionally include item IDs and subitems. The export includes full column headers and properly escapes special characters, making the CSV compatible with Excel, Google Sheets, and other spreadsheet applications.

WHERE IT RUNS

The script activates on all Monday.com board pages (*.monday.com/boards/*), including main board views, board tables, and item lists. It works with both the classic board layout and newer grid/table views, automatically detecting the board structure and data presentation format.

HOW TO USE

After installation, navigate to any Monday.com board. The script adds a draggable panel with export controls. Click "Export CSV" to immediately export all visible board data. Use the column selection area to click on column names and toggle them on/off for the export. Configure the CSV delimiter, date format, and toggle options like including item IDs or subitems. The panel shows a live count of detected items and a progress bar during export. The exported CSV file downloads automatically with a filename containing the board name and current date.

THE ACTUAL REASON IT WORKS

Unlike browser extensions that rely on Monday.com's GraphQL API (which requires authentication tokens and has rate limits), this script performs client-side DOM scraping with a multi-strategy parser designed for Monday.com's React-rendered interface. It uses a cascade of selector strategies: first targeting data-testid attributes, then class-based patterns, then structural heuristics (role attributes, semantic elements). For each cell, the script applies type-specific parsing - checking for status indicators (which render as colored pills), people avatars (extracting multiple names), tag groups (joining comma-separated), checkboxes (converting to Yes/No), dates (parsing and reformatting), and dropdown selections. This approach works instantly without API keys, handles private boards, and captures exactly what is visible on screen including any custom columns.

THE PANEL

The panel is fully draggable by its header and remembers its position across page loads using GM_setValue. It collapses to a small icon when minimized, preserving workspace. Press Escape or click the × button to close the panel. The panel includes a live item counter, progress bar during export, column selection area with clickable tags, delimiter and date format dropdowns, and action buttons for export, refresh, and clipboard copy.

PLEASE NOTE

This userscript requires the free BotGentz extension to run. The script reads only visible data from the current board page - it does not scroll or load additional items beyond what is rendered in the viewport. For large boards, ensure all items are loaded by scrolling through the board before exporting. Monday.com periodically updates its interface, which may affect data detection; we actively maintain the script for compatibility. The script does not send any data to external servers - all processing occurs locally in your browser. Exported CSV files may contain sensitive board data; handle them according to your organization's data security policies.
