All 11 n8n JSON snapshots matched. Both requests went to the wrong customers.

Описание и применение

В n8n‑рабочем процессе HTTP‑запросы отправлялись неверным клиентам из-за ошибки в отслеживании наследования. Аудит выявил несоответствие, а исправление восстановило правильную связь.

Задача

Outgoing HTTP requests in an n8n workflow addressed the wrong customers despite matching JSON snapshots.

Результат

The audit tool detected mismatched ancestry indices, confirming wrong recipient requests. After applying the repair, the audit reported consistency and zero mismatches.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Parent supplies four orders to child.
• 2. Child computes two branches (first two → A,B; latest two → D,C).
• 3. Each branch projects items, removing customer identity.
• 4. Merge selects one branch; parent recovers customer via $('Orders').item.
• 5. HTTP node sends requests based on recovered customer.
• 6. Audit tool compares returned items to expected parent input items.
• 7. Repair updates lineage traversal to use correct pairedItem metadata.

Доказательства

Both outgoing HTTP requests addressed the wrong customers.

Источник

The bug lives in the edge. n8n's pairedItem metadata links a result to its input ancestors.
