Templated document generation
It’s “mail merge” for monday.com boards and items – builds documents based on your monday.com data.
The templated document generation automations allow users to generate Word documents from templates, pull data from your monday.com boards and save the generated documents within SharePoint.
These automations allow you to generate all your professional documents, invoices, quotes, legal agreements or any other type of file from your own templates.
