See how searchable board sharing can work
Your monday.com board remains the place where your team manages the information. Board to Website Widget publishes selected board data as a searchable external view that can be opened directly through a URL or embedded into your website. When your monday.com data changes, you can republish the widget manually or use monday.com automations to keep the published information updated.
1. Select your monday.com board
Add Board to Website Widget to the board containing the information you want to make searchable for external users.
2. Configure the shared view
Choose the items and columns to publish, apply filters and configure the layout and appearance of your widget.
3. Enable search and publish
Enable search for the widget, publish the result and share it directly or embed the view into your website.
When a monday.com shared view is enough
monday.com already lets board owners publicly share supported board views through a shareable link or iframe embed. You can also save filters and hide columns before sharing the view. A native shared view can be the easiest option when:
- The amount of information is easy to browse
- Saved filters already narrow down the visible items
- The standard monday.com presentation works for your audience
- You do not need a dedicated search experience for external users
For smaller or simple public views, there may be no need for an app.
When external users need search
Board to Website Widget is designed for cases where external users need to quickly find individual items within the information you publish from monday.com.
You can enable search for published board items while also controlling the visible items and columns, applying filters and choosing a table or grid layout. The searchable widget can then be shared directly or embedded into your website.
This is useful when visitors should be able to find information without browsing through the entire shared board view.
