Frequent Logout Issue - "browserId check failed

Hi everyone,

I’m experiencing an issue where I keep getting logged out of n8n multiple times an hour. In the logs, I see the following errors repeatedly:

2024-11-25T21:01:41.132176489Z browserId check failed on /rest/events/session-started  
2024-11-25T21:01:41.214151689Z browserId check failed on /rest/login  

It’s frustrating to have to log in again and again. Has anyone faced this issue before, or does anyone know how to fix it?

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:

Hi @nusquama!

Are you connecting to different n8n instances? Can you try running it on private browsing mode and see what happens? Do you have any browser add-ons enabled?

Can you check if the docker container is restarting often?
