Describe the issue/error/question

I have a workflow where a node is executed twice even though I have enabled Execute Once.

What is the error message (if any)?

It still executes two times.

Please share the workflow

Share the output returned by the last node

Hey @jolo,

Execute once will run a node once no matter how many items are coming in. In your case though you have 2 inputs so it would run once for each input but only once for each input no matter the amount of items.

Hey @Jon,

Thank you for your reply.
Okay, I got it. And if I only want to have run the Function 1 - node, I should put them in sequence.
Got it :slight_smile:
