n8n 2.36.2 Release Notes
n8n has just rolled out version 2.36.2 on August 19, 2026, a maintenance release that addresses a handful of issues affecting self-hosted users. The update focuses on improving API discovery, resolving credential handling in workflows, and fixing a minor UI glitch in the agent preview.
On the API side, the /discover endpoint now returns a proper request schema for decorator-based routes. This makes it easier for developers to understand and integrate with n8n’s API, as the documentation generated from the endpoint is now complete and accurate.
The core workflow engine received a fix for end-user credential resolution. Previously, when node parameters were loaded, credentials tied to end users weren’t always resolved correctly, which could cause workflows to fail. With this patch, n8n ensures that credentials are properly recognized and applied in those scenarios.
Finally, the editor has been tweaked to keep user messages right-aligned in the agent preview. This small alignment correction brings the chat interface in line with expected messaging conventions and improves readability.
