How to use the latest AI Agent version?

,

Describe the problem/error/question

I have the latest N8N version (1.116.1), I create a new workflow, choose AI Agent node and it shows that its version is 2.2 and 3.0 is available. How to use the latest version of AI Agent node ?

What is the error message (if any)?

No error, just can’t use the latest versions of AI Agent node

Please share your workflow

Share the output returned by the last node

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: 1.116.1
  • Database (default: SQLite): Supabase
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): own
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): docker
  • Operating system: Ubuntu 22.04

My understanding (and I am not the expert here) is that when n8n releases a new version, it is packaged with their latest nodes. In my case, I am running version 1.115.3. If I create a brand new workflow and add an AI Agent node, I see the same thing you do, which is AI Agent node version 2.2 (Latest version: 3).

If you visit n8n’s [releases page](Releases · n8n-io/n8n · GitHub), you will find that a big AI-focused release is coming, which is version 1.116.0. I suspect that the pre-release version (or some other upcoming pre-release) will include the new v3 version of the AI Agent node.

Perhaps someone else will have more details to share, but I suspect the answer is that we are on the latest released version of n8n with the latest released version of the AI Agent node. A newer one is likely coming in the near future.

TL;DR: Wait for a newer n8n release and I suspect we will get v3 fairly soon :slight_smile:

I have the same issue. Can’t figure out how to upgrade.

Hey guys, I faced the same problem and found the solution, you just need to install the

“Better AI Agent” node

and it will work perfectly. I tried it myself, and it works:

n8n-nodes-better-ai-agent

I’m also having problems with all workflows using AI Agent; n8n shows a message that the AI ​​Agent node version needs to be updated to work. Question: I have several workflows with AI Agent, and none of them are working. Will I need to upgrade all the nodes? Isn’t there a way to update the nodes without creating them again? Version 2.2.4. Mesage: This model is not supported in 2.2 version of the Agent node. Please upgrade the Agent node to the latest version.

I found the solution. You need to erase your current AI Agent node and add a new one to the canvas. This new node will have the latest version.
