Too long HTTP request

cheshir · May 26, 2020, 12:21pm

Hi there.

The problem: I have an HTTP request that executes infinite time sometime. Setting timeout doesn’t help. I guess headers returned without problems. Curl request from host finished in milliseconds.

The question: how can I determine why HTTP request executes too much time? Can I turn on some verbose trace mode?

Sorry but there is currently nothing like that. So the only way to debug this would be to pull the n8n code locally, build it and then add debug code manually.

A guide how to set up n8n locally for development can be found here:

K, get it. It would be great to add debug tool feature to the end of the backlog.
