Describe the problem/error/question

I just asked the AI to give me the latest emails, and it returned all of them.

Can you show me a screenshot of what your output looks like?

[n8n-er]

Here the tool reply 50 items, but the LLM can see only the first one

This is interesting, perhaps it has something to do with the fact that it is being called through the agent, that is my guess. Though I have worked with AI agents and other Get Many options and it has worked. Perhaps it has something to do with your prompt?

Weird, I can’t replicate it.

I just copied your same workflow and the same question, and the model returned what it was supposed to.

AI Agent node version 3
n8n v1.119.0

I can see that the tool response is only single item. You can see the Agent gets only single item in the input context.

A workaround that I found is instead of tiggering Gmail tool, I trigger a Workflow with Aggregate node as final step:

But I don’t know why the Gmail tool returns a single item

@mohamed3nan

AI Agent node version 3
n8n v1.119.0

As I mentioned, it works on AI Agent v3 and n8n v1.119.0.
It also seems that this was a bug which has now been fixed

Thank you mohamed3nan, I am using the web version of n8n cloud. Upgrading it to v.1.119.0 (beta) made it work.

Thanks @mohamed3nan updating n8n solved the issue
