Webhook Trigger "This workflow has no trigger nodes that require activation"

Webhook documentation says the following:

When your workflow is ready, switch to using the production webhook URL. You can then activate your workflow, and n8n runs it automatically when an external service calls the webhook URL.

Everything I searched about this topic the answer to this question is “You don’t have to activate it for the execute workflow trigger” which makes sense for certain triggers.

What is the error message (if any)? I can’t get my webhook active. The response I get when I call the webhook

{
  "response_data": {
    "code": 404,
    "message": "The requested webhook \"GET 8c0f04b3-ddf5-432b-8cb5-7247c93453b7\" is not registered.",
    "hint": "The workflow must be active for a production URL to run successfully. You can activate the workflow using the toggle in the top-right of the editor. Note that unlike test URL calls, production URL calls aren't shown on the canvas (only in the executions list)"
  },
  "status_code": 404,
  "action_id": "g-1bc857c7a8da64571ca82c4c0fa04b3745e197fa"
}

Please share your workflow

Information on your n8n setup

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

I recreated the node and the problem went away. Goodbye 45 minutes, hello working webhook!
