Nothing in "Executions list"

Describe the problem/error/question

When a workflow is triggered, I don’t see it in the execution list.

Steps to reproduce

  • I’ve created a simple workflow : a webhook that answers “hello world”.
  • In the workflow settings, I made sure “save … executions” are on “Save”.
  • I save my workflow.
  • I call it with my web browser → I receive “hello world” response.
  • I go to “Executions” tab.

Expected result

  • I see my execution and I can view what happened in it.

Actual result

  • List is empty.

  • File n8nEventLog.log contains the events linked to the webhook call.

What is the error message (if any)?

Nothing here yet / No execution found

Please share your workflow

Hey @PhunkyBob , for the executions to appear in the execution list you have to have that enabled in the workflow settings, Settings | n8n Docs.

Hello @ihortom ,

Like I said in my initial post:

In the workflow settings, I made sure “save … executions” are on “Save”.

I tried “Default - Save” and “Save” with both same result: no execution found (whereas the n8nEventLog.log contains events).

Where am I supposed to watch inside the Docker container to see where the executions history are saved?
In a file? In the database?

When I look into the “developer tools”, I see a request to
https://n8n.myserver.com/rest/executions?filter=%7B%7D&limit=10
raising a 403 Forbidden error.

In postman, if I remove the “filter=%7B%7D” part, it works.
Why is the filter causing such trouble?

It seems the problem comes from a XSS mitigation from the proxy.
