Hi n8n team,
I’m currently using the hosted Chat Trigger node with n8n authentication enabled.
When a user sends a message along with a file upload, I can see the file is received, but the metadata attached to the message shows as:
metadata: [object Object]
It seems like the object is not being properly serialized, and I can’t access the actual data inside it (like user info, session, etc.). I was expecting metadata to include user identification or auth context, especially since I’m using authenticated chat.
Is this expected behavior? If not, could this be a bug or a limitation of the current chat implementation?
Let me know if you need logs or a reproducible example.
Thanks in advance!
