Prevent Concurrent Workflow Runs Using Redis

• Prevent multiple instances of a workflow from running simultaneously.
• Ensure data integrity by managing workflow execution states.
• Automate task management in environments with high trigger frequency.

Trigger the workflow when executed by another workflow. Check the current status of the workflow in Redis. Set the workflow status to 'active' if not currently running. Execute the main tasks of the workflow. Unset the workflow status upon completion.

1. 1
   Import the workflow template into your n8n instance.
2. 2
   Configure the Redis credentials for accessing your Redis instance.
3. 3
   Set the appropriate workflow ID for your specific use case.
4. 4
   Test the workflow to ensure it correctly manages concurrent executions.
