n8n Cloud 1.76: Why Is Execution History Limited to 4-5 Entries?

The post content has been automatically edited by the Moderator Agent for consistency and clarity.

Our n8n cloud instance recently upgraded to version 1.76.1, and since the update, the execution history displays only the last few executions (4-5 entries) instead of the full history.

No error messages are shown, and our pruning settings (enabled with a maxAge of 720 hours and maxCount of 25000 executions) should allow for a larger history. We aren’t applying any filters like 'Do not save successful executions', so this behavior seems unexpected.

Below is the relevant debug information:

core

n8nVersion: 1.76.1
platform: docker (cloud)
nodeJsVersion: 20.18.2
database: sqlite
executionMode: regular
concurrency: 999

Could this be due to changes in how version 1.76 handles execution history display? Any insights or recommendations would be appreciated.

Based on your description and provided debug info, there isn’t any error message. The instance isn’t reporting an error regarding execution history; it’s just showing a very limited number of executions (4–5).

A few things to consider:

With v1.76, some changes may have affected how execution data is displayed in the UI.
Your current pruning settings (enabled with a maxAge of 720 hours and maxCount of 25,000 executions) are configured to keep a larger history.
Verify in your admin dashboard or workflow settings that no additional filters (such as “Do not save successful executions”) are inadvertently limiting the view of the execution history.

In summary, there is no error message—the behavior you’re seeing is not due to an error being reported by n8n. This might be related to how the new version handles or displays execution data. You might want to check the latest release notes or documentation on execution data handling for any changes that could impact this behavior.
