Monitor stuck tasks in Monday.com with automated Slack alerts

🧑‍💻 Description This workflow checks a Monday.com board/group for items with Status = "Stuck" and sends a Slack alert (e.g., to a user or channel). Great for nudging owners on blocked work without manual chasing.

🧠 How it works - Get many items (Monday.com): pulls items from your board/group - Set Columns: maps item fields (Name, Status, Due Date) - Filter for Stuck Items: keeps only items where Status = "Stuck" - Alert Team (Slack): posts a message like "<Item Name> task is stuck"
