n8nctl executions prune

n8nctl executions prune¶

Bulk-delete executions by age and/or status

Synopsis¶

Delete execution records older than a cutoff and/or matching a status, to reclaim database space. Always previews the count first; pass --yes to skip the confirmation, or --dry-run to only count.
