n8n n8n@2.12.2 released on 13-03-2026
n8n n8n@2.12.2 is out now. It fixes a condition where the task runner could hang when an external connection attempt failed, and introduces an import option to skip disabling foreign-key constraints, improving execution reliability and import flexibility for affected users.
See the full release on GitHub for notes and commit links; users running the 2.12.x line should upgrade to pick up the backported fixes.
What’s in this release
- Fix: Prevents the task runner hanging when a connection attempt fails (backport to release-candidate/2.12.x — issue #26928, commit a431d88).
- Feature: Adds an option to skip disabling foreign-key constraints during imports (backport to release-candidate/2.12.x — issue #26883, commit c9f8c20).
- Patch/backport release: a small backport release addressing the two items above to improve stability and import flexibility for 2.12.x users.
Upgrade notes
- Skipping foreign-key constraint disablement means imports must respect existing constraints; pre-validate data consistency before using the option.
- No additional breaking changes are documented for this patch; follow your normal upgrade and rollback procedures if needed.
