Access Execution Data from Error Workflows

Retrieves and extracts webhook data from failed executions in n8n error workflows, enabling data-driven error handling and recovery.

This workflow demonstrates how to access execution data within an n8n error workflow, allowing you to make decisions based on the data that caused the failure. It starts with the Error Trigger node, which activates when another workflow encounters an error. The 'Get execution data' node then uses the n8n API to fetch details of the failed execution, including node data. Next, the 'Extract webhook data' Code node parses the execution data to identify webhook nodes, extract their input payloads,
