Hi
I suspect that when you updated n8n, your Docker container was replaced with a new one. Without a persistent volume set up, all your data (account, workflows, credentials) was stored inside the old container and got lost when it was removed.
To prevent this in future, when running n8n with Docker, always include a volume to save your data. Add this to your docker run command:
-v n8n_data:/home/node/.n8n
This stores your data in a named volume that survives container updates and restarts.
