    Since the last update, a couple of my flows broke. All are related to the Read/Write file to Disk node

    in the past, we could read and write to /app/data/storage, but this is no longer working.
    The error shown is that the only writeable path is /home/cloudron/.n8n-files, which obviously does not exist.

    Could be related to https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/pull/24185

          there was a breaking change (more info here https://community.n8n.io/t/n8n-restrict-file-access-to-in-2-0/227750), you need to add this to your env file:

          export N8N_RESTRICT_FILE_ACCESS_TO="/app/data"

            @msbt said in Issue with Read/Write node:

            export N8N_RESTRICT_FILE_ACCESS_TO="/app/data"

            This solves it 🙂 Thank you
