Execute workflow: cannot read property "name"

Hello,

My node execute workflow needs to trigger another workflow.
But it runs with an error:

Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'name').

The thing is, the name I used 04exZUZzfn7GD4PC exists. It’s another workflow, workflow B below:


And here’s my workflow A node:

Got this error in my Railway console:


and:

I’ve the exact same problem on another workflow as well.

Please share your workflow

Hello, up on this. Super important. I’ve the same error in multiple workflows. Thanks!

Have you ever tried to use nested workflows like that before on this server ?
If not, do it on brand new workflows and see it works there.

If this also fails, I’d assume you have a problem on your instance.

if I were you, I’d try to

  • change the source from Database to URL (just to check)
  • restart the server
  • reinstall n8n (overriding it. it should not impact your db)
