AI Agent - There was an error: "The workflow did not return an item with the property 'response'"

WTF am I doing wrong? I can’t tell you how many countless hours I spend trying to get the simplest of things to work using n8n…

The call a workflow tool doesn’t seem to be passing back the response from the workflow - even though the workflow is being called and successfully processes the data.

Error: There was an error: “The workflow did not return an item with the property ‘response’”


Self hosted - version: 1.62.4

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

Note it works if the tool is in the same workflow. The error occurs when the tool is in another separate workflow.

Hey @elliott,

I just hit the same error, I will take a look and see if I can work out what is going on.
