feat(api): test and save the destination of a migration - #15602
Conversation
WalkthroughThe migration API now accepts and tests database, vector, and file destinations. It stores sanitized test outcomes and retains successful secrets in worker memory. Migration connection-step status now depends on which destinations the source instance requires and whether those destinations passed testing. ChangesMigration destinations

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The new destinations endpoint is mergeable. One flaw remains: if the admin's database address fails its test, the knowledge-base check tells them to enter the address again instead of reporting the database failure.

Requesting changes on 78ef108 for two reproducible destination consistency issues: concurrent probes can leave held credentials pointing to a different database than the saved record, and replacing a database preserves the previous database's vector pass. Please commit credentials and destination results together and invalidate database-dependent checks on destination changes.

@ogabrielluiz Thanks for the isolated S3 credentials and secret-safe validation. I left two consistency findings that affect which destination is certified and copied. Both reproduced against the current route source and need fixing before approval. |

Hey @erichare, this PR has one more commit, I also put today's commits in one line again and pushed #15602 to #15633. Yours on #15601, #15610 and #15618 are in as you wrote them. Your OAuth handoff test and the route inventory test of #15633 added to the same lines of |

Re-reviewed at 645371e. Credential-bearing endpoints, queries, fragments and encoded delimiters are rejected before the S3 probe and omitted from the saved endpoint. A failed files destination also clears its held credentials. All 19 targeted regressions passed locally, including the endpoint secrecy cases, and Ruff check and format checks passed. Approved this scoped change. CI still has a Python 3.14 knowledge-base storage failure outside this diff, and remaining checks are running.

@ogabrielluiz Thanks, the endpoint fix looks good. I reviewed 645371e and the restacked #15633 at f457566 and approved both. The unsafe endpoints are rejected before the S3 client sees them and are kept out of the record and logs. All 19 targeted checks passed at the #15602 head. The restacked pause suite and selected destination checks gave 93 passed and 10 PostgreSQL/S3 skips. Both the OAuth browser-handoff test and the GET-route inventory are intact. CI remains a merge gate: #15602 currently has a Python 3.14 failure in test_native_first_start_with_real_platform_checks, outside this diff, and checks are still running. |
PUT /api/v1/migration/destinations tests each part of the destination it is sent and saves how the test ended: the database (a new, empty PostgreSQL database the user can create tables in), the vector extension for knowledge bases, and a bucket the keys can write to. A part the instance does not need is refused, and an instance that keeps nothing on its own disk skips the step. The bucket is tested with the keys it was given and nothing else. The session reads no variable of the server's environment, no AWS config file and no shared credentials file, so a profile named there cannot fail the test. A bucket that answers 404 is missing, one that answers 403 is denied, and anything else never got an answer about the bucket. The record keeps where each part is and never a user, a password or a key. The password and the keys stay in this worker's memory, for the copies to use. The route reads and checks its own body, so a body that fails is answered without its values and is never logged. It reads the record only once the tests are over, so what another request saved meanwhile is kept.
PUT /migration/destinations changed what this worker holds as soon as the database test ended, and wrote the record only after the tests of the other parts. A save that waited on its bucket test could end after a second save: the record then named the first database while the worker held the address of the second, and a copy would have written to one while the record reported the other. Each test now runs on what its own request brought, and nothing is held until the tests are over. The record is written and the secrets are changed in one step, with nothing awaited in between, so whichever save ends last decides both. The secrets also say which saved part they belong to, in _secrets["for"], which lets a copy refuse a secret that is not the one of the saved destination, in any worker.
A saved knowledge base test stayed when another database address was saved without it. The step then read done on the strength of a database nobody had tested for the vector extension. The saved database now carries an identity beside its location: a short digest of the user, the host, the port, the name and every option of the address, without the driver and without any password. The location leaves the options out, and a host or a search_path given there changes where a copy lands. When a database with another identity is saved and knowledge bases are not sent with it, their saved test is dropped and the step waits for it again. The same database saved again keeps it.
The step that saves a destination did by hand what _hold does. It calls _hold again, once the tests are over, so the helper is unchanged and stays the one place where a secret is held or forgotten. No change in behaviour.
…t is missing The step for the destinations answered "current" whenever a part the instance needs was not saved, before it looked at how the saved parts had fared. Since a database saved alone drops what knowledge bases found in the one before it, a database that cannot be reached then read as "current", and the admin lost the reason. A part that was saved and failed now decides first: the step reads blocked with its code. Only when none failed does a missing part make the step current.
…while Knowledge bases sent without a database are tested in the database this worker holds. A test takes a while, and another save could replace the database before this one wrote: the record then named the new database next to what the knowledge bases had found in the old one. The save now compares the database the test ran in with the saved one when it writes. If they differ, the result is not kept, as when a new database is saved alone.
…tension The knowledge base test answered pgvector_missing in three cases. Two are about the destination database and are for its admin to fix. The third is this server's own Python package, which a plain install of Langflow does not include, and it is fixed by whoever runs Langflow. That case now answers pgvector_package_missing, with the reason it had.
…able points An instance that already runs on PostgreSQL keeps its database, and its knowledge bases move into pgvector. After the copy the server reads them through its own PGVECTOR_CONNECTION_STRING, so the copy has to write where that variable points. The destination test asked the instance's database address, and said nothing when the variable was missing. The test now asks the database the variable names. Without the variable it answers pgvector_env_missing and says to set it and restart, so the admin learns it at this step and not after the pause. The value of the variable holds a password: it goes to the test and is neither saved nor returned. An instance on SQLite is tested as before.
An IPv6 host can be written in several ways: in upper or lower case, with or without its zeros. Each spelling gave the destination database another identity, so the same database entered again read as a new one. The host now goes into the identity by its one canonical spelling. Other hosts, and what the page shows as the location, are as before.
…cation A database password with an "@" that is typed as it is, and not as %40, ends at that "@" where the address is read. The rest of it is taken for the host, and for the database or an option when it also holds a "/" or a "?". The location that is saved and shown is built from those parts, so it held a part of the password. So did the driver's message about a host it could not find, which goes back in the response. Nothing tells such a part from a real one, so an address with an "@" after what is read as its password is not read at all. No location and no identity is kept for it, and its test answers at once that an "@" in the password has to be written as %40, and asks no driver. A user name with an "@" in it, as some servers name their users, is read as before.
…ddress The record kept the bucket's endpoint as it was sent. An endpoint with a user and a password in it, or with a token after a "?" or a "#", left them in migration.json, in the answers of the migration routes and in the record an admin downloads for support. The bucket's client also wrote the endpoint to the debug log, and repeated one it could not read in its error. An endpoint is now tested and kept only when it is http or https, a host, and at most a port and a path. The path takes no "%", which could spell the "@" and the "?" that are refused before it. Any other endpoint is neither tested nor kept: the answer for the bucket is bucket_unreachable and says how to enter it, the way an address of the database with an "@" in its password is handled. Nothing can tell a token from a host name or from a path, so those are kept as typed.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Report the database failure for vectors when the database in the same request failed.
The page sends database_url and vectors together. If the database test fails, Line 307 sets held to {}. Lines 320-324 then return secrets_missing with the text "Enter the database address again." The admin entered the address in this same request, so the message is wrong. The real cause is the database failure. The test at src/backend/tests/unit/api/v1/test_migration.py Line 2804 expects this misleading code. A later PR in the stack (#15605) is meant to fix this, but this PR can be merged on its own and shows the wrong text until then.
If the submitted database failed, copy its outcome into the vectors result instead.

Stacked on the pause endpoints PR.
This adds the route behind the "Where your data goes" step of the migration page. The admin names where the new instance keeps its data, and the server tests each part before anything is copied.
Like the other migration routes, it needs a superuser and exists only when
LANGFLOW_FEATURE_INSTANCE_MIGRATION=true.PUT /api/v1/migration/destinationstakes{database_url?, vectors?: {kind}, files?: {bucket, prefix, access_key_id, secret_access_key, endpoint_url?, ca_bundle?}}, tests each part it is sent, and returns the state plusresults: {<part>: {ok, code?, reason?}}. A part that is sent replaces what was saved for it. A part that is left out stays as it was.db_unreachabledb_not_emptyno_createpgvector_missingvectorextension is not turned on in the database, or the database server does not have it.pgvector_package_missingpgvectorextra, which a plain install of Langflow does not include, so whoever runs Langflow fixes it.pgvector_env_missingPGVECTOR_CONNECTION_STRING.secrets_missingbucket_missingbucket_deniedbucket_unreachableconvert-sqlite-to-postgresrefuses on, so a database that an earlier copy filled still passes.vectors.kindispgvectoronly. The test runs against the destination database. What it found belongs to that database: when a database with another identity is saved without the knowledge bases, their saved test is dropped and the step waits for it again. The same database saved again, as after a restart, keeps it. Knowledge bases sent alone are tested in the database this worker holds, and if another save replaced that database before this one wrote, what they found is not kept either.PGVECTOR_CONNECTION_STRING. So there the test runs against the database that variable names, and without the variable it answerspgvector_env_missingand says to set it and restart. The admin learns it at this step, before the pause. The value of the variable holds a password: it goes to the test and is neither saved nor returned. The copy of knowledge bases never installs the extension, so one that is only available still reads aspgvector_missing, and the reason says to runCREATE EXTENSION vector;.not_needed. An instance that keeps nothing on its own disk skips the step.The bucket is tested with the keys it was given and nothing else. The S3 session reads no variable of the server's environment, no AWS config file and no shared credentials file. A default session reads all three. A profile named in the server's environment then fails every client, whatever keys it is given, and an endpoint named there is used when the admin leaves the field empty.
Where the secrets go. The record keeps where each part is (
host:port/namefor the database, the bucket, the prefix and the endpoint) and how its test ended. It never holds a user, a password or a key. Beside its location the database part carries anidentity: a short digest of the user, the host, the port, the name and every option of the address, without the driver and without any password. The location leaves the options out, and ahostor asearch_pathgiven there changes where a copy lands, so the identity is what tells two destinations apart. An IPv6 host goes into it by its one canonical spelling, so the same database written another way stays the same destination. The database address and the keys stay in this worker's memory, for the copies to use. A restart or a second worker has none and the page asks again, which one comment marks together with the way out (an encrypted file or Redis). A reason is the driver's own first line with the password and the keys taken out. It can name the database user, so it goes back in the response and stays out of the record.The step. "Where your data goes" is done when every part the instance needs is saved and passed. It reads
blockedwith the code of the first part that was saved and failed, also while another part is still missing, so the reason of a failed test is never hidden behind a part the admin has yet to send. Only when nothing failed does a missing part leave the step waiting.A password with an "@" in it. A password with an "@" has to be written with
%40in an address. Typed as it is, the "@" ends the password where SQLAlchemy reads the address. The rest of the password is taken for the host, and for the database or an option when it also holds a "/" or a "?". Forpostgresql://migrator:Summer@2026@db.internal:5432/langflowthe host read2026@db.internal. The test of that address fails, and the location is saved whether the test passes or fails, so the record held2026@db.internal:5432/langflowuntil the database was saved again. The driver's message named the same host, and that message goes back in the response. Nothing tells such a part from a real one, so an address with an "@" after what is read as its password is no longer read at all. No location and no identity is kept for it. Its test asks no driver and answersdb_unreachableat once, with a reason that says to write an "@" in the password as%40. A user name with an "@" in it, as inuser@server:password@host, is read as before.A bucket endpoint with more than an address in it. An endpoint such as
http://user:password@host:9000carries a user and a password, and one with?token=...carries a token. The record kept the endpoint as it was sent, and the S3 client repeats what it is given in its debug log and in some of its errors. An endpoint is now tested and kept only when it is http or https, a host, and at most a port and a path. The path takes no%, which could spell the "@" and the "?" that are refused before it. Any other is neither tested nor kept: its test asks no client and answersbucket_unreachableat once, with a reason that says how to enter it, and the record keeps no endpoint for it. A host name and a path are kept as typed, because nothing can tell a token from either.Three things about saving

Two saves overlap on two real databases, the first held on its bucket test by a server that takes the connection and says nothing: nothing is held while it waits, and at the end the address this worker holds and the record name the same database. The same rule is shown with no PostgreSQL at all. A database saved alone drops what knowledge bases found in the old one, on a live server with the vector extension and on none, and the same database saved again keeps it. Five pairs of addresses pin the identity: another driver or password is the same destination, another
host,search_pathor user is not. Four more pairs do it for an IPv6 host written in different ways. Knowledge bases that are tested while another save replaces the database keep no result. On an instance that runs on PostgreSQL, the test goes to the database its own variable names, with a password in the variable that is then found nowhere, and without the variable the answer ispgvector_env_missing. A database that fails while the knowledge bases are missing readsblockedwith its code.Three more cases save an address whose password holds an "@": one where the rest of the password would land in the host, one in the database name and one in an option. Each reads the state back. The reason has to say
%40, no location may be saved, and no piece of the password may be in a response, in a file under CONFIG_DIR, in a log line or in what the server printed. With the first version of this fix, which cut the host at its last "@", two of the three failed with the reasonfailed to resolve host 'Xk2Tail', a piece of the password. One more case reads an address whose user name holds an "@".Ten more cases send an endpoint with more than an address in it: a user and a password, a password with a "/" that ends the host early, a user alone, a full-width "@", an "@" written as
%40, a user and a password written into the path with%3Aand%40, a "?" written as%3F, a token after a "?", a token after a "#", and text with no scheme. Each reads the state back. The reason has to say how to enter the endpoint, no endpoint may be saved, and no piece of what was typed may be in a response, in a file under CONFIG_DIR, in a log line or in what the server printed. Five more check that an endpoint that is only an address is still taken as one.test_migration.pyandtest_migration_pause.pytogether give 137 passed and 1 skipped against a local PostgreSQL and S3 server, where the skip is the test that needs an S3 server that checks keys.

The other sends a destination that passes. Both read every response, every file under CONFIG_DIR, what the routes log at DEBUG, what the standard logging captures at DEBUG, stdout and stderr, and find neither value.
