Google sheet node with filter doesn't work and returns more results than in google sheets

Describe the problem/error/question

My triggered workflow is having a problem. The Google Sheets read. node has a filter in it that is not working. Instead of returning the filtered data its returning 9360 rows, where the sheet its reading only has 6095 rows.

I tried to fix it by adding an extra filter node after the Google Sheets read, but its still passing the unfiltered data through.

The weird thing is that it doesn’t happen when I manually trigger the node.

What seems to be the problem?

What is the error message (if any)?

The service is receiving too many requests from you. This error is in a later node and unrelated, as it should give this error if there are that many result going through.

Please share your workflow

The workflow was to big so I will only share the first three nodes.

Share the output returned by the last node

Hi @LinkedUp_Online,

Thanks for sharing all the details :muscle:
I’m not being able to reproduce the behaviour…
First thing I would do is update your instance to a later version if you can. Latest one is v.1.67.1 and the Google Sheets node was updated a couple of times since v.1.34.2. Releases · n8n-io/n8n · GitHub

If you’re still seeing the same issue after that could you also share some pinned data in your wf? :raised_hands:

Hi!

Thanks for the tips!

I just updated to 1.68.0.

It didn’t fix the problem.

What kind of data do you mean?

Output from the google sheets read node?

Best,

Mark
