# Updating a Monday.com item

### Overview

Items are identified by their **AB Tasty Campaign ID** stored in a Monday.com column.

### Prerequisites

* Column name: AB Tasty Campaign ID
* Column type: Text

{% hint style="warning" %}
Ensure this column is filled for every item linked to an AB Tasty campaign.
{% endhint %}

### Zap structure

1. Detect a campaign status change in AB Tasty
2. Format campaign status for Monday.com
3. Find the related item using the Campaign ID
4. Update the item status
