Delete Test Data in Node

HI everyone. I am super new to N8N and am super impressed with it!

I am creating an S3 node but noticed it retains some of the test data I put into it. All the files are the same; I just renamed them. Can I delete the test files and whatever is in memory?

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:

I actually figured it out. It was partially pinned data. I am assuming that if I have a pinned data node, that will just pin whatever new data is there, creating an array.

Anyhow my issue is resolved.

Tip for sharing information

Pasting your n8n workflow


Ensure to copy your n8n workflow and paste it in the code block, that is in between the pairs of triple backticks, which also could be achieved by clicking </> (preformatted text) in the editor and pasting in your workflow.

```
<your workflow>
```

That implies to any JSON output you would like to share with us.

Make sure that you have removed any sensitive information from your workflow and include dummy or pinned data with it!


If I understand you right you want to delete files in S3 bucket that were uploaded there to be used with AWS Transcribe.

To delete the files from S3 you can use the AWS S3 node with parameters:

  • Resource: File
  • Operation: Delete

That is great @ihortom info! I totally didn’t even think of that. I will try that.
