n8n n8n@2.26.8 released on 19-06-2026
n8n n8n@2.26.8 is out now. The patch prevents a crash in the Form Trigger node by adding a default value for its authentication parameter, which stops older workflows that lack the parameter from failing at runtime.
See the GitHub release for the full details, diffs and links to the commit and issue referenced in the notes.
What’s in this release
- Form Trigger node: a default value for the authentication parameter has been added to prevent crashes on legacy workflows (issue #32629).
- Fix implemented in commit 174da99 and published as a targeted patch release to address the runtime failure.
- Change is backward-compatible: the default is injected so existing workflows do not require manual edits.
Upgrade notes
- No breaking changes — the fix injects a safe default for the Form Trigger authentication parameter; still, take a routine backup of workflows and test Form Trigger-dependent flows after upgrading.
- After updating, verify by running Form Trigger workflows that previously caused crashes and confirm there are no authentication-related errors; full release and compare links are available on GitHub.
Share any findings or regressions on the project’s issue tracker or in the comments so others know whether the fix resolved crashes in your Form Trigger workflows.
