The Debug Editor might be unavailable in the Community Plan version 2.16.1 due to licensing restrictions.

Guidance

  • Compare the features available in the current version (2.16.1) with those in previous versions where the issue did not occur.
  • Consider reaching out to n8n support or checking their community forums for known issues or workarounds related to the Debug Editor in the Community Plan.
