Hello, 
Is there a setting so that N8N always uses {{ $node.node_name.json.variable }} instead of {{ $json.variable }} every time I drag and drop an N variable to the N+1 node?
Anything I could modify for it to act that way?
Sorry if it’s a noob question, I’m not a developper, I only do no-code.
Thank you!
Hi @Joachim_Brindeau, I am afraid this isn’t an option n8n offers right now.
I shall convert your question into a feature request so you and other users can vote on having this implemented.
Hi @Joachim_Brindeau — it’s an interesting idea, and I’m curious about what you have in mind with this. What problem are you solving?
I am trying to rebuild a project that died when I was working with a dev who moved on to another opportunity.
The workflow is complex and I often find myself changing the order of the steps, or adding intermediary steps to improve the % of satisfying results.
If I have the node name I don’t break things when doing so.
