n8n 2.47.4 Patch Fixes Expression, Image Editing and Editor Bugs

n8n has published version 2.47.4, a patch release dated November 11, 2026. The release notes list five bug fixes and no new features.

The fixes span several areas. In the core engine, expression transfers should keep working after built-in replacements, and bare node references now match across expression engines. Observational memory keeps running after a user stops a human-in-the-loop (HITL) card. The Edit Image node registers its font once instead of on every text operation. In the editor, the owner column in the migration report is wider.

Each change is narrow, but together they address behavior that workflow builders are likely to encounter during routine use.

Why it matters

Expressions control how data moves between nodes, so fixes in that area reduce the chance of workflows failing quietly. The observational memory fix matters for teams that run HITL approvals alongside memory-dependent automations. Because the release contains only bug fixes, it is a comparatively simple upgrade to review.

What to do

After upgrading to 2.47.4, test workflows that use expressions, the Edit Image node or HITL cards. Read the full release notes on GitHub for the complete change list and any upgrade guidance. Confirm current pricing and plan limits on n8n’s website, since the release notes do not cover them.
