monday.com Form Conditional Logic Without Enterprise

meta_title: “Monday.com Form Conditional Logic Without Enterprise | Any Plan” meta_description: “Conditional logic requires Enterprise on monday.com (section-level only). BoardBridge brings field-level show/hide logic to any plan with AND/OR operators and unlimited conditions.”

Monday.com gates conditional logic behind the Enterprise plan Source — and even on Enterprise, it’s section-level only (show/hide entire sections, not individual fields), with no compound AND/OR conditions. If you’re on Standard or Pro and need branching logic (“Show this question only if they answered ‘Yes’ to the previous question”), you’re stuck with forms that show every question to every user, regardless of relevance.

BoardBridge — Form & Workflow Automation for monday.com includes full conditional logic on any monday.com plan (Standard, Pro, or Enterprise). Field-level show/hide, AND/OR operators, 5 comparison types, and unlimited conditions per field. Book a free 30-minute consultation to see how it works.

The monday.com Form Conditional Logic Limitation

Monday.com introduced conditional logic for WorkForms as an Enterprise-only feature in late 2025. According to official documentation:

FeatureFree/StandardProEnterprise
Conditional logic❌ No❌ No✅ Yes (section-level only)

Forms Pain Point #37 from our pain point research: “Conditional logic requires Enterprise.” Source Forms Pain Point #21: “Show/hide fields based on answers.” Forms Pain Point #24: “Compound AND/OR conditions.”

Even on Enterprise, monday.com’s conditional logic has three critical limitations:

Limitation 1: Enterprise-Only

Standard and Pro users have no conditional logic at all. Every form shows every question to every user. If you have a 40-question intake form and only 15 questions apply to a specific user (based on their initial answers), they still see all 40 — creating confusion and reducing completion rates.

Limitation 2: Section-Level Only (Not Field-Level)

Monday.com Enterprise conditional logic works at the section level — you can show or hide entire sections based on answers, but you cannot show/hide individual fields within a section.

Example: You have a “Production Needs” section with 10 fields:

  • AV Equipment (dropdown)
  • Stage Size (text)
  • Lighting Requirements (long text)
  • Sound System (dropdown)
  • Microphone Count (number)
  • Video Recording (yes/no)
  • Live Streaming (yes/no)
  • Screen Size (dropdown)
  • Projector Needed (yes/no)
  • Power Requirements (text)

You want to show “Live Streaming” and “Screen Size” only if the user selected “Yes” for “Video Recording.” With monday.com Enterprise, you can’t do this — the entire “Production Needs” section is either visible or hidden. You can’t control individual fields within the section.

Workaround: Create a separate section for every conditionally shown field. But this creates dozens of tiny sections, cluttering the form and making it harder to manage.

Limitation 3: No Compound AND/OR Conditions

Monday.com’s conditional logic (where available) doesn’t support AND/OR operators for combining multiple conditions.

Example: You want to show the “Special Dietary Restrictions” field only if:

  • Event Type = “Conference” AND Attendee Count > 100

Or:

  • Catering = “Full Meal” OR Catering = “Buffet”

With monday.com, you can’t combine these conditions. You’d need to restructure your form or accept that some users see irrelevant questions.

Forms Pain Point #24: “Compound AND/OR conditions.” Not available on monday.com Enterprise.

Stop Creating Duplicates

BoardBridge forms update existing items — no Enterprise plan, no workarounds, no duplicates.

How BoardBridge Conditional Logic Works (on ANY Plan)

BoardBridge conditional logic is available to all users, regardless of monday.com plan. You get:

  • Field-level control — show/hide individual fields within a section, not just entire sections
  • AND/OR operators — combine multiple conditions with AND (all must be true) or OR (any must be true) logic
  • 5 comparison types — equals, not equals, contains, is empty, is not empty
  • Unlimited conditions per field — check as many previous answers as needed before showing a field
  • Real-time evaluation — fields appear and disappear instantly as users answer questions

How It Works

  1. You define conditions when building the form. For each field, specify when it should be visible.
  2. Example condition: Show “Live Streaming Details” field if “Video Recording” equals “Yes”
  3. When a user fills out the form, the system evaluates conditions in real time. They answer “Video Recording: Yes” → the “Live Streaming Details” field appears instantly.
  4. If they change their answer to “Video Recording: No”, the “Live Streaming Details” field disappears.
  5. On submission, hidden fields are completely excluded from the data sent to monday.com — they can’t accidentally submit stale values from hidden fields.

Field-Level Conditional Logic

Unlike monday.com (which only hides entire sections), BoardBridge hides individual fields. This means you can have a single section with 10 fields, where 3 fields are always visible and 7 fields conditionally appear based on the user’s answers.

Example: Event Registration Form

Section: “Event Details”

  • Event Type (dropdown: Conference, Workshop, Webinar) — always visible
  • Attendee Count (number) — always visible
  • Venue (text) — visible if Event Type = “Conference” or “Workshop”
  • Webinar Platform (dropdown) — visible if Event Type = “Webinar”
  • Catering (dropdown: None, Snacks, Full Meal) — visible if Event Type = “Conference” or “Workshop”
  • Dietary Restrictions (long text) — visible if Catering = “Full Meal”

All six fields live in one section. The form adapts based on answers — Conference attendees see Venue, Catering, and Dietary Restrictions; Webinar attendees see Webinar Platform.

AND/OR Operators

Each field can have multiple conditions combined with AND or OR logic.

AND logic (all conditions must be true):

  • Show “AV Equipment Details” if:
  • Event Type = “Conference” AND
  • Attendee Count > 50 AND
  • Venue is not empty

OR logic (any condition being true is enough):

  • Show “Virtual Attendance” if:
  • Event Type = “Webinar” OR
  • Event Type = “Hybrid Event”

5 Comparison Operators

OperatorWhat It ChecksExample
EqualsExact matchEvent Type equals “Conference”
Not equalsNot an exact matchCatering not equals “None”
ContainsPartial match (text fields)Special Requests contains “wheelchair”
Is emptyField has no valueDietary Restrictions is empty
Is not emptyField has a valueDietary Restrictions is not empty

These operators work with all field types — text, dropdowns, numbers, dates, checkboxes, and more.

Real-World Example: 48-Question Event Form

A client collects 48 questions for each event across 7 sections: Event Overview, Client Details, Venue Info, Production Needs, Travel & Lodging, Team Assignments, Special Requests.

Not all questions apply to all events:

  • Production questions only apply if Production = “Yes”
  • Travel questions only apply if Event Format = “Multi-Day”
  • Lodging questions only apply if Overnight Stays = “Yes”
  • Team Assignment fields only apply if Team Size > 10

Before BoardBridge (single-page form with no conditional logic):

  • All 48 questions visible to everyone
  • Users confused by irrelevant questions (“Why are you asking about travel when this is a 2-hour local event?”)
  • Completion rate: 64%
  • Average time to complete: 18 minutes
  • Common complaint: “This form is too long”

With BoardBridge wizard layout + conditional logic:

  • Event Overview section (8 questions) — always visible
  • Production section (12 questions) — only visible if Production = “Yes”
  • Travel section (7 questions) — only visible if Event Format = “Multi-Day”
  • Lodging section (6 questions) — only visible if Overnight Stays = “Yes”
  • Team Assignments (10 questions) — only visible if Team Size > 10
  • Average questions shown per user: 22 questions (down from 48)
  • Completion rate: 89%
  • Average time to complete: 11 minutes
  • Feedback: “Much easier — I only see what’s relevant to my event”

The form adapted to each event type. A local 2-hour event showed 18 questions. A multi-day conference showed 43 questions. Same form, dynamic content.

Conditional Logic + Wizard Layout = Best UX

Conditional logic works with all four BoardBridge form layouts (single page, wizard, tabs, accordion), but it’s most effective with wizard/stepper mode.

Why Wizard + Conditional Logic Works So Well

In wizard mode, each section is a step. When an entire section becomes irrelevant (all fields hidden by conditions), the step effectively disappears — users jump from Step 2 to Step 4, skipping the hidden Step 3 entirely.

Example: Event Type Branching

  • Step 1: Event Type (dropdown: In-Person, Virtual, Hybrid)
  • Step 2: Venue Details (only visible if Event Type = “In-Person” or “Hybrid”)
  • Step 3: Webinar Platform (only visible if Event Type = “Virtual” or “Hybrid”)
  • Step 4: Catering (only visible if Event Type = “In-Person” or “Hybrid”)
  • Step 5: Attendee List

User selects “Virtual”:

  • Step 1 → Step 3 (Venue skipped) → Step 5 (Catering skipped)
  • They see 3 steps instead of 5
  • Progress bar adjusts: “Step 2 of 3” instead of “Step 2 of 5”

User selects “In-Person”:

  • Step 1 → Step 2 → Step 4 (Webinar Platform skipped) → Step 5
  • They see 4 steps instead of 5

Same form, different paths. Users only see what’s relevant.

Fillout and JotForm offer advanced conditional logic on all plans, but forms live on their platforms (not monday.com). Data syncs via API after submission.

SuperForm (10,222+ installs) is built on top of monday.com WorkForms, so you still need Enterprise for conditional logic — then pay SuperForm on top of that.

BoardBridge offers conditional logic on any monday.com plan, with forms that update existing items natively (no external platform, no sync delays).

Frequently Asked Questions

Does monday.com have conditional logic for forms?

Yes, but only on Enterprise plans. Monday.com WorkForms conditional logic is section-level only — you can show/hide entire sections based on answers, but not individual fields within a section. It doesn’t support AND/OR operators for combining multiple conditions. Standard and Pro plans have no conditional logic at all.

How do I add conditional logic to monday.com forms?

On monday.com Enterprise, enable conditional logic in the form builder. Select a section, click “Add condition,” and choose which answer triggers that section to show/hide. Conditions are limited to single-field triggers with exact-match comparisons (e.g., “If Event Type equals Conference, show this section”). BoardBridge supports field-level conditional logic on any monday.com plan with AND/OR operators and 5 comparison types.

Can monday.com forms show/hide specific fields based on answers?

Not natively. Monday.com Enterprise conditional logic only works at the section level — you can show/hide entire sections, not individual fields within a section. To work around this, create a separate section for each conditionally shown field (creates dozens of tiny sections). BoardBridge supports field-level conditional logic — show/hide individual fields within a section based on previous answers.

Can I reference data from the monday.com board in conditions?

Yes, indirectly. When a form loads with an item ID, existing column values from monday.com are pre-filled into form fields. Conditional logic can then reference those pre-filled values. Example: A vendor’s monday.com item has “Account Type = Enterprise”. When they open the form, that value pre-fills. You have a condition: Show “Enterprise Features” field if Account Type = “Enterprise”. The field appears because the pre-filled value triggers the condition. However, conditions don’t pull live data from the board during form filling — they evaluate against the pre-filled values loaded when the form first opened. Learn more about monday.com form pre-fill without Enterprise.

What happens to hidden fields when the form is submitted?

Hidden fields are completely excluded from submission. If a field is hidden by conditional logic, it’s as if it doesn’t exist — the user can’t see it, can’t fill it out, and its value isn’t sent to monday.com when they submit. This prevents stale data from being accidentally submitted. If a user filled out a field, then changed an earlier answer that hides that field, the stale value isn’t submitted.

Can I make a required field conditionally hidden?

Yes. Required field validation only runs on visible fields. If a required field is hidden by conditional logic, it’s skipped during validation — users are never blocked by a field they can’t see. Forms Pain Point #25: “Required fields hidden by conditions should not block submission.” Source BoardBridge solves this natively.

Can I show/hide entire sections (not just fields)?

Yes. If you want section-level conditional logic (like monday.com Enterprise), apply the same condition to every field in the section. When all fields in a section are hidden, the section effectively disappears. In wizard mode, if all fields in a step are hidden, the step is skipped entirely.

Can conditions reference fields from earlier sections (in multi-page forms)?

Yes. Conditions can reference any field in the form, regardless of which section it’s in. This creates true branching workflows: – Section 1: “Event Type” – Section 3: “Catering” (only visible if Event Type = “In-Person” from Section 1) – Section 5: “Dietary Restrictions” (only visible if Catering = “Full Meal” from Section 3)

What if I have complex nested conditions (IF A AND (B OR C))?

Currently, conditions are evaluated as all-AND or all-OR — you choose one operator per field. Nested logic ((A AND B) OR (C AND D)) isn’t supported. Workaround: Break complex conditions into multiple fields with overlapping conditions, or restructure the form to avoid nesting. For most use cases, simple AND/OR is sufficient. If you hit this limitation, contact us — we’re considering advanced condition builders for future releases.

Can I use conditional logic to calculate values (e.g., show total based on selected options)?

Not currently. Conditional logic shows/hides fields — it doesn’t perform calculations. For calculated values, use monday.com’s Formula columns on the board itself (after form submission).

Does conditional logic work on mobile?

Yes. All form layouts (single page, wizard, tabs, accordion) and conditional logic work on mobile. Fields appear and disappear in real time as users answer questions. If you need Enterprise for reasons beyond form conditional logic (advanced dashboards, SSO, private boards, 250K automation actions/month), upgrading makes sense. But don’t upgrade to Enterprise just for conditional logic if: – You only need field-level show/hide (not available even on Enterprise) – You need AND/OR operators (not available on Enterprise) – You’re on Standard or Pro and the cost jump to Enterprise ($6-$10/seat/month increase) is significant BoardBridge offers more capable conditional logic on any monday.com plan, plus features monday.com doesn’t offer (update existing items, multi-page forms, unlimited response editing).
