SSH node, continue on error

[banjo_vu]

Describe the problem/error/question:

Problem is that SSH node create error: connect ECONNREFUSED, but does’t transfer that error to the next node

What is the error message (if any)?

Please share your workflow

Share the output returned by the last node

Next node only see this: “Error running node ‘SSH to Mikrotik’”, no JSON, TABLE or SCHEMA data.

Hello @banjo_vu,

First of all, are you sure there is a successful connection?
What does your connection test show?

Hello mohamed3nan, thank you for the reply!

I perfectly understand why this error happened, in this case SSH service was disabled on router. My goal is to pass error information to the user through Respond Webhook, log error information into database…

Hi @banjo_vu,

do you want to pass the error even if the connection isn’t successful?!

@banjo_vu

My goal is to pass error information to the user through Respond Webhook, log error information into database

In this case, I would wrap the SSH node inside a sub-workflow, then configure the Execute Sub-workflow node’s On Error setting to Continue (using error output),

This way, you’ll get the connection error in the Error branch, as shown here:

And the sub-workflow approach looks something like this:

Thank you Mohamed for that suggestion, I will try that approach.
