Question about 2.0

i have a question about how will i transfer my existing workflows from version 1 to version 2, will they have to be recreated from scratch, will i be able to export them and re import them into version 2, will it just happen? im very new to all this so i’m not sure of this question even makes sense but thanks alot for any help anyone can provide.

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

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

After reviewing the Beta (I installed it in a separate folder) I was able to simply copy and paste the old workflow into the new new environment and all my workflows ran without modification. It would seem that an in-place upgrade will work fine, with no changes to your existing workflows. I did not see any significant (under the hood) changes or additions to nodes in RC3 compared to 1.112.4.

Hey guys!

I think workflows that uses Task runners …Code node (Python Pyodide) … will need human intervention since it uses “BREAKING CHANGES “ as title description.

n8n v2 introduces some breaking changes (security, CLI, behavior of sub‑workflows, removed nodes, etc.)

Cheers!
