OpenAI Create a Thread

[Autmarketing]

Hi! I’m trying to create an OpenAI “Create a Thread” node, but it’s not showing up for me. Is this feature no longer available?

My n8n version is 1.85.4

In n8n we usually use a Memory node for that! It’s very practical:

Example 1

Example 2

.

You can also use databases like Postgres, to store the conversation.
The memory get’s automatically managed while the chat is happening, but you also have the flexibility of using the Chat Memory Manager:

If my reply answers your question, please remember to mark it as a solution.

Hi Solomon! Thanks for the reply.

I was watching a video tutorial and the option Create a Thread appeared in this video, but it doesn’t appear in mine.

Another discrepancy is that WordPress Create a Media appeared in his, but it doesn’t appear in mine.

Have these options changed or is it just that mine doesn’t appear?

n8n changes all the time. It is always improving.
This is controlled by the version.

We’re currently on version 1.85.4
See GitHub releases here

If the Thread used to exist and doesn’t anymore, it’s probably because it has been deprecated in favor of a better approach. And that approach is the memory node, as far as I know.

It manages the Threads automatically. You don’t have to create threads anymore.

Very good. Now I’m starting to understand! Thank you very much o/
