Hi.

I’ve been trying to update a column value on a [monday.com](http://monday.com) board using the [monday.com](http://monday.com) node but have been getting the error.

“Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘change\_multiple\_column\_values’)”

 ![Screenshot 2025-03-11 at 15.37.32](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/n8n/original/3X/3/2/3280c9554587090ef024bcc19248b9167b76876e.jpeg)

I’ve tried various formats, including using stringify but haven’t got past this error.

I’d appreciate any help and guidance here!

Many thanks.

(I’m using n8n cloud)

Can you show the details in “Other Info” in Error Details?

This implies change\_multiple\_column\_values is being called from an object, and that object is undefined.

It is most likely related to how you setup the body JSON.

Take a look here:

> **[Column Types](https://developer.monday.com/api-reference/reference/column-types-reference)**
>
> Browse the full list of monday.com column types, their API support levels, and implementation types for reading and writing column values

I believe text should be TextValue. And maybe the key may be different (where did you get the “text\_n…” key?)

Thanks for your help. I was unable to get this to work using the [Monday.com](http://Monday.com) node but was successful with a HTTP request. Posting here for future lurkers, an example of a text column and link column update. I wasn’t able to figure how to properly use stringify to neaten this up so if anyone has guidance here I’d be grateful!.

If that worked, that query is correct. I believe it needs to be escaped. That’s what the \ means.
