Reasons why creating RAG always fails when following "The AI Automators" method

Describe the problem/error/question

I was watching the “n8n RAG Masterclass” by the YouTube channel “The AI Automators”. Their method was to directly connect the “Edit Fields” node with the Supabase vector store for document uploading and chunking. However, no matter what I tried, I couldn’t succeed with this approach. Eventually, I added an additional connection from the “Download File1” node to the Supabase vector store, and then it worked. Could this difference be due to an n8n update?

His original approach

My modification succeeded.

What is the error message (if any)?

The operation reports success, but the vector data in Supabase is empty.
