It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

• n8n version:
• Database (default: SQLite):

Hi @Manish_Kumar, welcome to the community!

The node is built for PostgreSQL, but Redshift does not support all of the PostgreSQL functionality. Specifically, when using the “Insert” operation n8n will try to return the result of the operation by using the RETURNING clause documented here. This is, however, not supported by Redshift from looking at their own docs.

So I’d suggest you simply switch to the “Execute Query” operation here. This will let you write your own INSERT query so you can take Redshift-specific limitations into account here.
