Http request node item in list predefined credentials suddenly gone

I have a workflow where I use HTTP request nodes (multiple). Now after some days I added another HTTP request node and tried to add a predefined credential to is “Woocommerce API”. But it’s not in the list anymore.

Though in other nodes it’s still working.


But when I edit those nodes, it’s also not in the list anymore. How is that possible?

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:

hello @Frits1980

Check that the credential is in the same project (the Sharing tab) or at least has access to the project where your workflow resides.

Thank you for the reply. Though I’m self hosting N8N and have a disabled sharing tab due to the fact that I have no licence plan enabled.

Please try a few things:

  • If you copy & paste your entire workflow in a new empty workflow, does it work?
  • If you add a new HTTP node in a new workflow, does it work?
  • Create a second credential identical to this one, but change the name. Does it show up?

Depending on the situation, it might just be a bug that you can solve by duplicanting or re-creating parts of your work.

If my reply solves your problem, please remember to mark as the solution.

  1. Checked, but no it does not come up in the list.
  2. Checked, but also not.
  3. Also checked, and sadly not. Which is weird, this last one I really thought it should have worked at least.

If you have access to the credential and your workflow does not, then maybe you have something broken in your intallation.

Backup everything and try to update n8n. See if that helps.

I have some workflows that can help you backup your workflows and credentials to Github:

If updating doesn’t work, you are gonna have to reinstall your instance from scratch. But if you backup everything to GitHub, it is very easy to import everything back.
