How is workflow execution counted?

Questions

Hello guys.

I have a question: how is workflow execution counted? I’m creating a WhatsApp customer service automation (chatbot), and I receive an average of 50 leads per day, with each conversation involving around 20 messages. Is the Pro plan right for me?

thanks

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:

In n8n, each time a workflow is automatically triggered, it counts as one execution, regardless of the number of steps or the duration of the workflow. Manual executions and sub-workflows do not count towards the usage limit [Source]

Given your scenario—receiving an average of 50 leads per day, with each conversation involving around 20 messages—the total number of messages would be 1,000 per day. If each message triggers a separate workflow execution, you would have 1,000 executions daily.

The Pro plan has some options when you click this box. Choose the one that best fits your needs:
