I am trying to save a workflow, but every time it fails with a red pop up notification. I see in the docs that it says all nodes must be configured properly, but I cannot tell which node is causing the issue. Is there a way to see which node(s) are causing the save to fail?

Hi there! 👋 Sorry to hear you're having trouble saving your workflow. Unfortunately, I couldn't find information about a direct way to see which specific node is causing the save failure. However, I can definitely help you with several strategies to identify the problematic node! According to the [workflow documentation](https://docs.vapi.ai/workflows), "A workflow cannot be saved until every node is connected and configured. The system will not allow saving with any dangling nodes." Here are some approaches to help you identify the issue: ## Systematic Troubleshooting Approaches 1. **Check for Dangling Nodes**: Make sure every node is connected to at least one other node. According to the [documentation](https://docs.vapi.ai/workflows), dangling nodes will prevent saving. 2. **Review Recent Changes**: If the workflow was saving before, focus on nodes you recently added or modified. 3. **Examine Edge Conditions**: Issues with

AIEdgeCondition

,

LogicEdgeCondition

, or the new

FailedEdgeCondition

could be causing problems, as mentioned in the [changelog](https://docs.vapi.ai/changelog). 4. **Check Node-Specific Requirements**: - For

nodes: Verify parameters are correctly configured to avoid "Bad request" errors as seen in [user reports](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1340615317772308520). - For function nodes: Ensure all required fields are included in your schema. Missing required fields can prevent saving, as noted in [community discussions](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1326276427628154920). 5. **Use Workflow Tracking**: You can send a [

workflow.node.started

](https://api.vapi.ai/api#:~:text=ClientMessageWorkflowNodeStarted) message to track the start of each node, which might help identify where the workflow is failing, according to the [changelog](https://docs.vapi.ai/changelog/2025/2/17).

Is there a way to take the code version of a workflow and create the nodes from that? I currently have a complex workflow that I built, that I can't save, and I can't export, and when I check it in incognito none of my work is there. Can I copy over my work somehow so I don't lose it?

Hey Kai, As of now, what I understand is that there is some issue in the browser's local memory related to the VAPI dashboard, and eventually, all of your workflow state is stored in the browser's memory. If that's the case, then we cannot recover it. When you click on the Save button, it usually goes to the network request. You can try checking the network logs to see if you can find anything over there. If you still cannot find anything in the browser's memory, in the network logs, or in the local state, then sorry buddy, you have to do the rework again.
