2nd input to match missing - merge node

Describe the problem/error/question

n8n freshly installed, 1st workflow created for course level 2. When using the Merge node, only one input field is shown to match records. Even if I drag or write 1 field, I don’t have a 2nd field.

What is the error message (if any)?

Please share your workflow

Thanks. I’ll leave with my shame now…

Hi @Max13
Nothing to be shamed :sweat_smile:
All of us started one day without knowing how to do this!
