Getting 413 error on simple if node?

[RCheesley]

Describe the problem/error/question

I am trying to update a workflow which I’ve had working in the past, but I’m really struggling.

Request failed with status code 413 is being thrown on a simple date if statement:

There’s just over 600 entries that came through the node before, so it shouldn’t be a problem and this worked in the past without issue! Any ideas?

What is the error message (if any)?

Request failed with status code 413

Please share your workflow

Hey @RCheesley,

That is unusual, Have you updated n8n or made any changes recently? Is that also the only 2 nodes in the workflow?

Hi there,

The update to n8n happened today, indeed - so I was updating the workflow to use the new trigger node. Now it doesn’t seem to want to work with the subsequent node, even when I’ve updated the fields and ensured they’re correct.

These are the only two relevant to this issue, I’m only executing one node at a time.

The problem is exactly the executing one node at a time. n8n has then to send all the data of the previous nodes to the backend. As the data is then so large, does it respond with the 413.

Meaning if you execute it in production, it should work fine.

Ahh OK - I’ll give it a go!
