When we have a subworkflow that is buried in another subworkflow and this “buried” subworkflow errors - BUT we have the errornotification set to the mainworfklow which contains both the subworkflow and ITS subworkflow → well then the only response we get is “Error executing workflow with item at index 0”
Is it possible to have an errornotification only for the mainflow (which contains nested-nested subworkflows) but still get an accurate error message?
Because we have to manually dig for every single error to see the true reason (which means clicking through up to 5 layers of workflows) which is just insane.
Hi @JonathanTAU As far as i understood you are trying to setup an ‘Error Responder’ which you wish to setup in the main workflow that would call many sub workflows and if any error comes in the sub workflows that would also be sent to you clearly, for what i have understood with current version of n8n you cannot just setup a one error responder flow and that would work for every sub workflow, what i would do in this situation is i would setup a workflow small like inside the 3 dots you would get Settings and there you can see an option ‘Error Workflow’ i would just make one and would set that as a Error Workflow in all of my sub workflows as this is the best practice when dealing with production level workflows and is pretty stable, hope this helps.
