- n8n is rolling out data tables (beta) in version 1.113, available to all plans.
- Data tables allow users to store data between workflow executions without external databases.
- Key features include saving workflow data, avoiding duplicate runs, and storing reusable prompts.
- A 50MB limit is set by default, adjustable for self-hosted instances via N8N_DATA_TABLES_MAX_SIZE_BYTES.
- Version 1.113.0 was temporarily removed due to SQLite performance issues but has been patched in 1.113.1 (beta).
- User feedback highlights desired improvements like column data type changes, search functionality, and better number formatting.
- The community has expressed excitement and provided constructive feedback for further enhancements.
