Custom n8n Workflow Tool - Missing "Field to Return" Field

Describe the problem/error/question

My “Custom n8n Workflow Tool” node does not have a “Field to Return” field.

But if I import a workflow that uses the “Custom n8n Workflow Tool” node, then it does have a “Field to Return” field.

Is there something I have to do so that the “Field to Return” field shows up in any new “Custom n8n Workflow Tool” nodes that I add?

Please share your workflow

Hey @SteveBau , it depends on the version of the tool itself. The previous version 1.2 still has the field but the later version 1.3 does not. It was removed as part of the n8n release 1.70.0 being considered obsolete.

Not a problem, I’ll figure out a workaround. Thanks for answering and helping me again!
