Diagnostics Information

Overview

To streamline troubleshooting, a diagnostics button has been added to the Node-RED editor. This button runs a diagnostics flow and copies the output to your clipboard for easy pasting into a GitHub issue or support forum.

Note

In versions prior to 0.62.0, the diagnostics flow was available as a separate flow that needed to be imported manually. You can still access and use this flow here.

For Versions Prior to 0.62.0

Before version 0.62.0, the diagnostics flow was a separate tool for collecting runtime and system environment data. It can still be imported into Node-RED to gather essential information for troubleshooting.
