Hello, I have a self hosted, docker n8n system running the lates version of n8n. I have not been active with n8n for about 4 months. I logged on recently and ensured all was working properly on my cloud hosted VPS, etc. I started working with n8n and retesting some of my previous workflows. What is happening now, with 100% consistency is that any changes I make to a node will be ignored and there seems to be no way for me to update the changes (other than recreate the node or entire workflow).
For instance, I will open a node, add a workflow input category into the schema of a ‘When Executed by another Workflow’ node. I save the workflow. I run the parent workflow, it triggers the sub workflow but when I view the execution, the node(s) do not show the changes, which can cause me errors. But when I go back to editor mode to view the same node, the changes are there. I have tried everything to refresh these workflows but nothing seems to be working.
In the past I have had issues with n8n not updating my changes. To fix that I usually had to close down the workflow and reopen it, which worked about 99% of the time. But this seems to be something else. Any suggestions from anyone on this?
Below you see the first list of parameters represented in the editor. The second is the result after the workflow is run.
Describe the problem/error/question
What is the error message (if any)?
Please share your workflow
(Select the nodes on your canvas and use the keyboard shortcuts CMD+C/CTRL+C and CMD+V/CTRL+V to copy and paste the workflow.)
Share the output returned by the last node
