@laucro77 please read my previous response, by manually altering the email and password hash on the database you can do it.
I can guide you through it if you provide me information about the database.

I assume that's your n8n app, I don't think it has a built-in way to change your login email from the UI. Usually, n8n stores users in a database, so you gotta update your email there manually. If you have access to the Railway dashboard, check your DB credentials, connect to the DB, and update your email directly in the user table. Next, if you want a new password, you'll have to reset it via the app's reset password system with the new email you've just set (or update the password hash in the DB).

yes this is my n8n app. I changed it here, but it doesn't work when trying to login here: https://primary-production-4bcb.up.railway.app/signin?redirect=%252F I tried with this laurent@aiinterconnect.com address and same password as before. Don't know what to do

Hello, how are you? the email you have in n8n does not influence the email with which you registered in railway, they are different things.
On the one hand you have the railway settings email which is the one you registered in the platform, now each project you deploy, in this case n8n, allows you to configure a different email, and does not feed from the registration email.
I recommend you to look in the n8n documentation how to change that mail or make a backup of n8n and redeploy it and put the correct mail in the initial registration.
Greetings.

That is your Railway.com's email, not your n8n app's email.
Please follow what I said on my previous message.

Okay lofimit but where do I find my DB from my dashboard?

I deployed the n8n template, and checking it a bit further, in “setting > personal” it allows you to change the login email to n8n deployed in railway.

ok, don't worry, let's go by parts to understand where you are and what you need.
what you need:
you want to change the email with which you login in n8n, right?

Yes thanks, and right now I messed up and I cannot login anymore here https://primary-production-4bcb.up.railway.app/signin
my login email was my personal lc0108@gmail.com and I want to change to my google workspace email laurent@aiinterconnect.com

ok, here's the deal.
on the one hand you have the railway mail in https://railway.com/account that with this you log in to this platform, this mail only works for this login, for any other application you use does not take this mail.
now, you want to change the mail with which you log in to n8n, for that you have deployed in your dashboard (https://railway.com/dashboard) this application.
When you deployed n8n and entered n8n for the first time, it had to ask you for an email to register, you can change that email from inside n8n, since they are different configurations.

It is strange that you cannot reset the password.
If you get access, you can change the login email in n8n, but as I see the current situation we are more complicated, I would recommend you to instantiate a new n8n and take the opportunity to configure it well, unfortunately you will have to create the automations again.
Sorry for the bad news. :'(
If you can recover the pass and login to n8n, we can change the mail.

I can't believe there is no solution!!! makes no sense. Always we can recover credential.

Why can't you recover the password? it doesn't send you the email? did you check if you have configured the SMTP in the environment variables?
