monday.com App · v1.0.0 · Coming soon
Bulk Ops
Find and replace across a board — previewed before a single cell changes.
- Find & replace
- Bulk set value
- Full preview first
- Whole-word & case
The gap it closes
A company renames. A status label changes. A typo is in 300 items. monday’s batch actions do not stretch to “replace this text everywhere”, so it becomes an afternoon of manual editing — or a risky script.
Bulk Ops does it in one pass, and shows you exactly what it will do first.
How it works
Three steps, then it runs itself.
- 01
Choose find & replace, or set a value
Replace text across chosen columns and item names, or set one column to one value across the board.
- 02
Preview every single change
You get the exact before → after for each affected cell. The preview is literally the write list, not an estimate of it.
- 03
Apply, with progress
Changes are applied item by item with a progress bar, and any failures are reported rather than swallowed.
How it behaves
The decisions that matter.
-
The preview is the write list
The same computed plan that you review is the one that executes — it is not recalculated between preview and apply.
-
Structured columns are never regex-edited
Find-and-replace only touches text columns and item names. Running a regex through a status or date column would corrupt it.
-
A bad value fails before anything is written
Values are validated up front, so a malformed date or number stops the whole operation rather than half-applying it.
-
No-op writes are skipped
Cells that already hold the target value are left alone, because a pointless write still fires your automations.
Pricing
Free tier that actually works.
Billed per account through monday.com's built-in monetization — not per seat. The free tier is deliberately functional so the app can prove itself on a real board before you pay for it. Trials get full Pro.

Permissions, and why each one
me:read- Identify the installing account for plan checks.
boards:read- Read the board’s items and values in order to build the preview.
boards:write- Apply the changes you approved — the core function of the app.
What is stored, and where
- The app stores no board data. Items are read in your browser session, the change plan is computed, and nothing is retained afterwards.
- Changes are applied from your own browser using your own monday permissions.
- The app runs entirely on monday code — monday.com’s own infrastructure. There is no external database.

Questions people ask.
Can I undo a bulk change?
Not from inside the app — which is exactly why the preview exists and why nothing is written until you approve the list. Pair it with Board Guardian if you want a snapshot first.
Will it change my status or date columns?
Find-and-replace never touches them. “Set a value” can, with the value validated before anything is written.
Bulk Ops is on its way.
It is built and running — currently going through monday.com’s marketplace review. Want a look before it lands?
