How can I locate and configure the console node for my start-set-console workflow in n8n?

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

I'm trying to build a simple workflow using start-set-console in n8n, but I'm encountering issues locating the console node in the node collection. Additionally, I'm seeing an IMAP error related to invalid credentials. Below is the error details:

JSON
{  
  "errorMessage": "Invalid credentials (Failure)",  
  "errorDetails": {},  
  "n8nDetails": {  
    "n8nVersion": "1.76.1 (Cloud)",  
    "binaryDataMode": "filesystem",  
    "stackTrace": [  
      "Error: Invalid credentials (Failure)",  
      " at Connection._resTagged (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/imap/lib/Connection.js:1502:11)",  
      " at Parser. (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/imap/lib/Connection.js:194:10)",  
      " at Parser.emit (node:events:518:28)",  
      " at Parser._resTagged (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/imap/lib/Parser.js:175:10)",  
      " at Parser._parse (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/imap/lib/Parser.js:139:16)",  
      " at Parser._tryread (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/imap/lib/Parser.js:82:15)",  
      " at TLSSocket.Parser.*cbReadable (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/imap/lib/Parser.js:53:12)",  
      " at TLSSocket.emit (node:events:518:28)",  
      " at emitReadable* (node:internal/streams/readable:834:12)",  
      " at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:81:21)"  
    ]  
  }  
}

I need guidance on how to properly connect to what I believe should be a console node, since it doesn't appear in my node collection. Any help on resolving these issues and connecting to the correct node would be appreciated.

Below is some guidance on two potential issues suggested by your message.

1. Addressing the "Invalid credentials (Failure)" Error

This error from your IMAP connection typically indicates an issue with the credentials you’re using. Here are some steps to resolve it:

Double-check your credentials: Make sure the username, password (or other authentication details) are correct.
Consistency in naming: If you’re working on a custom node or credential type, verify that the name in your credentials configuration matches the name used in your credentials class.
Service-specific requirements: Some services require extra authentication settings or specific scopes. Review the service’s API or credential documentation to ensure all required settings (such as enabling domain-wide delegation for certain credentials) are properly configured.

2. Missing "Console Node" in the Node Collection

If you’re trying to connect to a node (referred to as “console node” in your message) that isn’t visible in your node collection, consider the following:

Verify registration: If this is a custom node you’re developing, confirm that you have registered it correctly in your package.json file (including the correct node file name, folder, and class name).
Check file properties: For custom nodes, ensure that any associated assets (like icons) are in the proper format, in the proper location, and referenced correctly (e.g. using the file: prefix for an icon file).
No official "console node": Note that n8n doesn’t have a built-in “console node.” If you intended to use one to perform a specific operation or debug output, you might need to use an alternative node (such as the Execute Command node) or implement a custom node.

Review these points and adjust your configuration accordingly. If the issue persists, double-check the relevant documentation on node development and credential setup for further details.
