I have a workflow with three branches, all leading into a Switch Node. When Branch No. 1 runs, everything works as expected. However, when Branch No. 2 runs, the Switch Node receives no input data, and I can’t figure out why.

Branch 1 Input as expected:

Branch 2 no input:

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:**

Hi @Kivema ,

Would you be able to share the wf? You can do that by slecting the nodes followed by Ctrl+C and pasting it between the \</\> option here 🙂  
Or at least the params and output of the IF node in Branch 2?

Does this also happen on branch #3?

Here you find the params of the if-node in branch 2:

Here you find the output of the if-node in branch #2 (anonymized):  
[  
{  
“Website-Domain”: [xyz.de](http://xyz.de)",  
“Email1-Domain”: “[abc.de](http://abc.de)”,  
“Email2-Domain”: null,  
“Email1-Adresse”: “[max.muster@abc.de](mailto:max.muster@abc.de)”,  
“Email2-Adresse”: “”,  
“Gmail-From”: “[wordpress@xyz.de](mailto:wordpress@xyz.de)”,  
“Company-Tag”: “DiI-Kunde”  
},  
{  
“Website-Domain”: “[xyz.de](http://xyz.de)”,  
“Email1-Domain”: “[abc.de](http://abc.de)”,  
“Email2-Domain”: null,  
“Email1-Adresse”: “[maxine.beispiel@abc.de](mailto:maxine.beispiel@abc.de)”,  
“Email2-Adresse”: “”,  
“Gmail-From”: “[wordpress@xyz.de](mailto:wordpress@xyz.de)”,  
“Company-Tag”: “DiI-Kunde”  
}  
]  
…  
So far I had no execution with branch #3.

Obviously I was able to resolve the issue myself with the help of that Post: [Two branches to the same node doesn't work - #3 by Ludwig](http://community.n8n.io/t/two-branches-to-the-same-node-doesnt-work/48233/3)
