The idea is:
Ignore (do not save) successful runs where only the 1st node or polling node runs. I want to save actual successful runs. Not runs where I poll gmail every 5 minutes and no new email is found. Gmail, google drive, shippo, anywhere that the first node requires polling.
My use case:
I have multiple workflows where the trigger node is one that involves polling every X minutes. Unfortunately even if it polls adn nothing is returned, it still counts as a ‘successful’ run and will save to the db.
Under Settings, you have:
Save failed production executions
Save successful production executions
I’m just saying it would be awesome if there was an option to “Skip saving polling workflows if nothing is returned.”
I think it would be beneficial to add this because:
I have thousands and thousands of runs every single month that involve a polling trigger node. They get saved to my db even when nothing is returned (such as no new email, no new document, etc.) Would make it cleaner, easier to troubleshoot or find actual runs that matter.
Any resources to support this?
Are you willing to work on this?
Yes - absolutely willing to work on this.
