This workflow demonstrates how to use the workflowStaticData() function to set any type of variable that will persist within workflow executions. https://docs.n8n.io/code/cookbook/builtin/get-workflow-static-data/ This can be useful for example when working with access tokens that expire after a certain time period. Using staticData we can keep a record of that access token and the expiry time and build our workflow logic around it. Important Static Data only persists across production executions, i.e. triggered by Webhooks or Schedule Triggers (not manual executions!) For this the workflow will have to be activated. Setup configure HTTP Request node to fetch access token from your API (optional) activate workflow test the workflow with the webhook production link you can check the population of the static data in the single executions Feedback If you found this useful or want to report some missing information - I'd be happy to hear from you at ria@n8n.io.
