Hey everyone,
I recently migrated from Pabbly Connect to n8n (open-source, self-hosted on my own server) and I just wanted to say — I’m really impressed. The system feels clean, advanced, and super flexible. It’s exactly what I was looking for in a workflow automation tool.
That said, while setting up my workflows and reviewing executions, I ran into a few limitations that I’d love to either find a workaround for — or suggest as future improvements:
- Search inside executions
→ I’d love to be able to search for a specific value (like an order ID, email, or any string from the execution data) without having to manually open each execution one by one. - Retry multiple failed executions at once
→ At the moment, it seems I have to open each failed execution individually to retry it. It would be super helpful to have a bulk select option to retry all failed executions together. - Display a main value column in executions list
→ For example in an eCommerce scenario, it would be great if the executions list could show a main identifying value (like a product name, order ID, or a custom tag/label) for each execution.
That way, scanning through runs would be a lot easier without having to dive into the details of each one.
If these features already exist in the open-source, self-hosted version and I’ve missed them somehow, I’d be very grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.
Otherwise — consider this my feature request 
Thanks a ton for this awesome tool and the supportive community around it. I’m really excited to build more with n8n.
Cheers!
Toumi
