Direct Link / Deep Link to Specific Page in Multi-Page n8n Form

Describe the problem/error/question

Hello everyone,

I am currently creating workflows in n8n that require various forms to be filled out at different times.

My goal is to have a multi-page form and for the link in an email sent later (for example, after three days) to link directly to the second page of the form.

The problem:

Currently, the form link in n8n always leads to the first page of the form. So if a user has already filled out page 1, closes the window and returns later (via the email link), the form always starts again on page 1 and not on the next page.

What I need:

I am looking for a way or an extension for n8n that allows you to create a link that points directly to a specific page (e.g. the second or third page) of a multi-page form – ideally through a link parameter or another solution.

If there is already a workaround for this or if someone can develop a suitable node, I would be very interested.

Here is an image of the workflow to illustrate:

1. Workflow begins –> Form must be filled out

2. The link to the form is sent in the email –> When the link is opened, it always takes you to the first page, i.e. the form that has already been filled out.

I would be very grateful for any feedback or support!

What is the error message (if any)?

  • no error message, the Workflow is active, but not like this how I want

Please share your workflow

Share the output returned by the last node

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

hey @Julian_Meier welcome to n8n community.

I do not think muntipage form is ideal way for that long gap.
workflow needs to be running for 3 days for that to work As it is in same flow.

I will suggest creating multiple forms for that.

Hi Moosa,

Thank you for your reply.
I have now changed this to two forms and it works very well.
