n8n Failed Execution Retry Workflow

This workflow is ideal for:

• Automation Professionals: Those looking to automate error handling and execution retries in N8n.
• Developers: Individuals who need to ensure their workflows run smoothly without manual intervention.
• Business Analysts: Users who want to monitor and manage workflow executions efficiently.
• Operations Teams: Teams responsible for maintaining the reliability of automated processes in their organization.

This workflow addresses the following issues:

• Error Management: Automatically identifies and retries failed executions without manual effort.
• Scheduled Monitoring: Runs hourly to ensure timely detection of errors, minimizing downtime.
• Streamlined Workflow Execution: Reduces the need for constant oversight by automating the retry process for failed workflows.

1. Schedule Trigger: The workflow is triggered hourly to check for failed executions.
2. Login to N8n: It logs into the N8n instance using predefined credentials.
3. Fetch Error Executions: Retrieves all executions with a status of 'error'.
4. Filter Successful Retries: Filters out executions that have been successfully retried to avoid redundant actions.
5. Conditional Check: Checks if there are any executions that need to be retried.
6. Loop Over Items: Iterates over each execution that requires a retry.
7. Retry Workflow: Sends a request to retry each failed execution.
8. No Operation: If there are no executions to retry, the workflow does nothing, ensuring efficiency.
