Subject: Workflow 404 Error – Published Workflow Not Found

Body:

Hi everyone,

I’m experiencing a 404 error when accessing my published workflow. Here are the details:

• Issue:
  When I visit my workflow URL, it returns a 404 (Not Found).

• Workflow URL:
  https://n8n.io/workflows/2692-integrating-ai-with-open-meteo-api-for-enhanced-weather-forecasting/

• Context:
  I’m using this workflow in our workshops to demonstrate how to integrate AI with API data (in this case, the Open-Meteo API). I’ve verified that all links (including search results) lead to the correct workflow, yet the direct URL still fails.

• Troubleshooting so far:

  • Confirmed that the workflow is published.
  • Checked for typos in the URL.
  • Verified that other published workflows are accessible.

Could someone help me identify what might be causing this issue or point out any additional troubleshooting steps?

Thanks in advance for your support.

Key points for asking technical help:

• Be specific: Provide a clear title and a summary of your issue without pleasantries that could distract from the problem.
• Include reproducible details: Give any relevant URLs, workflow details, and the context of where and how the error occurs.
• Outline what you’ve already tried: This helps responders avoid suggesting solutions you’ve already attempted.
• Focus on the technical issue: While a brief greeting is okay, it’s best to immediately lead into the details of your problem.

This focused approach makes it easier for community members or contributors to understand the issue and offer targeted assistance.
