Describe the problem/error/question

I have created a workflow in personal workflow under test n8n which and have scheduled a cron to get this workflow triggered at a particular time, which is not get triggered automatically. The manual execution is working fine, but automtation is not working. Need help to fix this issue and enable automation.

What is the error message (if any)?

Please share your workflow

https://n8n.rcp.us-east-1.data.test.exp-aws.net/workflow/0B6RSCtMK1JLDHtQ?projectId=IX1bxD66Lieqwzcp&uiContext=workflow_list

Share the output returned by the last node

@Saba_Parveen flip the Active toggle on top right of the canvas, schedule trigger only fires when workflow is activated, manual run works regardless. here’s a minimal one to test:

{ "nodes": [ {"parameters": {"rule": {"interval": [{"field": "minutes", "minutesInterval": 5}]}}, "name": "Schedule", "type": "n8n-nodes-base.scheduleTrigger", "typeVersion": 1.2, "position": [240, 300]}, {"parameters": {"values": {"string": [{"name": "ping", "value": "ok"}]}}, "name": "Set", "type": "n8n-nodes-base.set", "typeVersion": 3.4, "position": [460, 300]} ], "connections": {"Schedule": {"main": [[{"node": "Set", "type": "main", "index": 0}]]}} }

save then activate it, check Executions tab after 5 min.

It sounds like there might be an issue with how the trigger node is listening for events. Sometimes it helps to check the execution logs to see if the webhook is actually reaching n8n, or if the service simply isn’t firing.

welcome to the n8n community @Saba_Parveen,
I would share the workflow JSON instead of the internal workflow URL, because other community members cannot access that private instance link and would need the actual Schedule Trigger configuration to see why it is not being registered for automatic runs.

Hi team,
Thanks a lot for taking this issue into your consideration and for the quick response. The issue has been resolved, as i was into editor so the workflow was not getting triggered automatically. After publishing, it is working as expected.

Thanks again for your help
