Chat trigger is not returning any variables

Hi there,

The first node of my workflow is a chat trigger, and when i run it sometimes it does work properly but it’s usually returning “No fields - item(s) exist, but they’re empty”. Has anyone had this problem and knows the solution?

In case it’s relevant:

  • n8n version: 1.78.1
  • **Running n8n via n8n cloud

It’s my first time using n8n so sorry if this is a dumb problem with an easy solution

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:

By using the branch for the ‘edit fields’ node, you’re actually sending TWO items to your Slack node instead of one.

If you’re totally new to n8n, I highly recommend you do our level 1 and 2 course before continuing - it will help you solve issues like this.
