Can I use n8n expression syntax inside a Code node?

No, n8n Code nodes use standard JavaScript. You should use direct variable access like $json.field or the $input API instead of curly brace expressions.

How do I correctly access webhook data in an n8n workflow?

In n8n, webhook data is wrapped in a .body property to preserve headers and query params. Use {{$json.body.fieldName}} instead of {{$json.fieldName}}.

How do I reference a node name that contains spaces?

When a node name has spaces, you must use bracket notation and quotes: {{$node["My Node Name"].json.field}}.

Why is my n8n expression returning literal text instead of data?

This usually occurs when you forget to wrap your expression in double curly braces. Ensure your code looks like {{$json.field}} rather than just $json.field.

Validates and fixes n8n expression syntax to ensure reliable workflow automation and data mapping.

소개

This skill provides a comprehensive validation framework and expert guide for writing correct n8n expressions within automated workflows. It helps developers master the double curly brace syntax, correctly reference data from previous nodes using $node, and navigate the specific data structures of webhook triggers. By identifying common pitfalls like missing braces, case-sensitivity issues, and incorrect usage in Code nodes, this skill ensures that your n8n workflows execute without data mapping errors or runtime failures.
