[Bug Report] - n8n Gmail trigger Keeps Running even when Disabled

Questions
1

n8n version: 1.93.0
Self-Hosted on DigitalOcean
User Story: When I created a workflow that had a Gmail trigger, I enabled it. I then disabled it and thought it would not run the gmail trigger. I even deleted the gmail trigger and saved the workflow, and it STILL checks the trigger.

What I think is happening: I believe that it could be that when the trigger is created, it generates a cron job in the system, but when you disable or remove the node, its not removing that specific cron job from the system?

Please advise.

Fixed it - I had to do a “docker compose down” and then a “docker compose up -d” to get it to work, but yeah that should definitely be something that should happen without me having to do that. @n8n team hopefully you can add this to the bugs/backlog list (It could also be a regression).
