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/destinations takes {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 plus results: {<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.

Part Code When
database, vectors db_unreachable No connection. Also an address that is not PostgreSQL, and a server with no PostgreSQL driver.
database db_not_empty It holds a table that is neither Langflow's nor a knowledge base's, or a user this instance does not have.
database, vectors no_create The database user cannot create tables.
vectors pgvector_missing The vector extension is not turned on in the database, or the database server does not have it.
vectors pgvector_package_missing This server has no pgvector package. It is the pgvector extra, which a plain install of Langflow does not include, so whoever runs Langflow fixes it.
vectors pgvector_env_missing Only on an instance that already runs on PostgreSQL: the server was started without PGVECTOR_CONNECTION_STRING.
vectors secrets_missing On a SQLite instance, while this worker holds no database address that passed its test: after a restart, or when the address sent in the same request failed. A PR higher in this stack makes the second case answer what the database answered.
files bucket_missing The bucket answered 404.
files bucket_denied The bucket answered 403: wrong keys, or keys that may not write.
files bucket_unreachable No answer about the bucket: an endpoint that cannot be used or reached, a timeout, a server error. Also an endpoint with more than an address in it (a user, a password, a query), which is not tried.
  • The "not empty" rule about users is the one convert-sqlite-to-postgres refuses on, so a database that an earlier copy filled still passes.
  • vectors.kind is pgvector only. 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.
  • An instance that already runs on PostgreSQL keeps its database, and after the copy its server reads the knowledge bases through its own PGVECTOR_CONNECTION_STRING. So there the test runs against the database that variable names, and without the variable it answers pgvector_env_missing and 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 as pgvector_missing, and the reason says to run CREATE EXTENSION vector;.
  • The bucket test writes an empty object under the prefix and deletes it, because keys that can read and not write would fail the copy much later.
  • Which parts an instance needs comes from the instance facts. A part it does not need gets a 422 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/name for 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 an identity: 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, 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 blocked with 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 %40 in 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 "?". For postgresql://migrator:Summer@2026@db.internal:5432/langflow the host read 2026@db.internal. The test of that address fails, and the location is saved whether the test passes or fails, so the record held 2026@db.internal:5432/langflow until 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 answers db_unreachable at once, with a reason that says to write an "@" in the password as %40. A user name with an "@" in it, as in user@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:9000 carries 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 answers bucket_unreachable at 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

  • A route that read the record, waited on a test for seconds and then wrote would undo what another request saved meanwhile. The route reads the record only once the tests are over, with nothing awaited before the write.
  • The secrets follow the same rule. Each test runs on what its own request brought, and this worker holds or forgets a secret in the step that writes the record. Before, a save that waited on its bucket test could end after a second save and leave the record naming one database while the worker held the address of another. The secrets also say which saved part they belong to (_secrets["for"]), so a copy can refuse a secret that is not the saved destination's.
  • The route reads and validates its body itself. A body that fails is answered with the fields that failed and no values, and it never reaches a log line.

How to try it

Same $BASE, $M, $H and $J as in the pause PR, on a SQLite instance whose check has passed:

# Upload any file first, so that this instance keeps a file on its own disk and needs a bucket.
curl -s -X POST -H "$H" -F file=@hello.txt $BASE/api/v2/files/

FILES='"bucket": "<bucket>", "prefix": "files", "access_key_id": "<key id>", "secret_access_key": "<secret>", "endpoint_url": "<endpoint, or leave it out for Amazon S3>"'
curl -s -X PUT -H "$H" -H "$J" $M/destinations \
  -d "{\"database_url\": \"postgresql://<user>:<password>@<host>:5432/<a new, empty database>\", \"files\": {$FILES}}" \
  | jq '.results, .record.destinations, .steps[1]'
# {"database": {"ok": true}, "files": {"ok": true}}
# {"database": {"location": "<host>:5432/<database>", "identity": "<16 hex characters>"},
#  "files": {"bucket": "<bucket>", "prefix": "files", "endpoint_url": "<endpoint>"},
#  "results": {"database": {"ok": true}, "files": {"ok": true}}, "saved_by": "admin", "saved_at": "..."}
# {"id": "connect_target", "state": "done", "reason": null}   and the bucket holds nothing new

# The same files part with one thing wrong each time:
#   a bucket that is not there  -> {"files": {"ok": false, "code": "bucket_missing", "reason": "An error occurred (404) when calling the HeadBucket operation: Not Found"}}
#   a wrong secret              -> {"files": {"ok": false, "code": "bucket_denied", "reason": "An error occurred (403) when calling the HeadBucket operation: Forbidden"}}
#   "endpoint_url": "http://127.0.0.1:1" -> {"files": {"ok": false, "code": "bucket_unreachable", "reason": "Could not connect to the endpoint URL: ..."}}
#                                           and the step reads blocked, bucket_unreachable

curl -s -X PUT -H "$H" -H "$J" $M/destinations -d '{"vectors": {"kind": "pgvector"}}'
# 422 {"detail":{"code":"not_needed","parts":["vectors"]}}   (this instance keeps no knowledge base)

curl -s -X PUT -H "$H" -H "$J" $M/destinations -d '{"files": {"prefix": "files", "access_key_id": "k", "secret_access_key": "<secret>"}}'
# 422 {"detail":[{"type":"missing","loc":["body","files","bucket"],"msg":"Field required"}]}

How I tested it

48 new test cases in test_migration.py. They run the real app on its test database.

  • Each database test creates a PostgreSQL database of its own and drops it. These need LANGFLOW_TEST_DATABASE_URI and skip without it.
  • Each bucket test creates a bucket of its own, then empties and deletes it. These need AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY (plus AWS_ENDPOINT_URL for a local S3 server) and skip without them.
  • bucket_denied needs an S3 server that checks keys. The test skips on one that accepts any keys. I ran it against a SeaweedFS container started with a key file, where unknown keys and a wrong secret both answer 403.
  • The bucket test runs with AWS_PROFILE naming a profile that does not exist, which is the case that used to fail.

Sixteen of the cases came with the review, and the ones about ordering are held by an event and none by a sleep. 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_path or 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 is pgvector_env_missing. A database that fails while the knowledge bases are missing reads blocked with 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 reason failed 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 %3A and %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.py and test_migration_pause.py together 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. With no service configured they give 128 passed and 10 skipped. ruff check and ruff format --check are clean on the files this PR touches.

I saw the new tests fail before the code existed, and again for each rule added later (the session cut off from the server's AWS settings, bucket_unreachable).

Two tests look for a password and a secret key that only they use. One sends a destination that fails, a body with a field missing and a body that is not JSON. 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.

Beyond the tests:

  • For the review fixes I planted 16 more defects, among them an address held as soon as its own test ends, a knowledge base test kept for another database, and a password that goes into the identity. Each made its test fail.
  • I planted 27 defects in this route and its probes, one at a time, and each made the test written for it fail. Ten of them leak the password or a key: into a log line, the record, a reason, a print, or the answer to a refused body.
  • I ran the curl session above against a real server whose environment named an AWS profile that does not exist, with a real PostgreSQL database and a bucket on an S3 server that checks keys. Afterwards the server log and CONFIG_DIR held neither the database password nor the keys.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added destination setup and testing for migration databases, vector storage, and file storage.
    • Database checks report whether a destination is reachable and suitable for migration; vector checks verify required extension support.
    • File storage checks verify bucket access and the ability to write and remove a temporary file.
    • Migration status now reflects whether required destinations have been tested successfully. Credentials are not included in saved test results or responses.

Walkthrough

The 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.

Changes

Migration destinations

Layer / File(s) Summary
Destination probes and checks
src/backend/base/langflow/api/utils/migration_probes.py, src/backend/tests/unit/api/v1/test_migration.py
Database probes validate PostgreSQL addresses, destination tables, users, and schema permissions. Vector probes check package and extension availability. S3 probes test bucket access with supplied credentials and endpoint settings. Tests cover probe outcomes and database identity.
Destination submission and secret handling
src/backend/base/langflow/api/v1/migration.py, src/backend/tests/unit/api/v1/test_migration.py
The destination endpoint validates submitted parts, records sanitized probe outcomes, and retains successful secrets in worker memory. Tests cover request validation, overlapping submissions, stale vector results, and credential secrecy.
Required destinations and connection status
src/backend/base/langflow/api/v1/migration.py, src/backend/tests/unit/api/v1/test_migration.py
Migration steps derive required destinations from source configuration. The connection step reflects saved results for those destinations. Database locations use the shared location helper.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 224cf

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. This is a misleading message and does not cause data or security harm.

Full details: Test File Naming And Structure

Explanation

The backend test file uses the correct test_migration.py name and has valid pytest tests with descriptive names, positive and negative cases, and cleanup fixtures. However, the pull request adds real integration tests to src/backend/tests/unit/api/v1/test_migration.py without an integration marker. The new scratch_database fixture creates and drops PostgreSQL databases through LANGFLOW_TEST_DATABASE_URI, and the new bucket fixture creates and deletes real S3 buckets through aiobotocore. The repository automatically marks files under tests/unit/ as unit; this file has no pytest.mark.integration or pytest.mark.real_services declaration. api_key_required only gates credentials and does not mark integration tests.

Resolution

Move the PostgreSQL- and S3-backed destination tests into an appropriate integration test file under src/backend/tests/integration/, or mark them explicitly with the repository's integration/real-service marker and ensure the test selection configuration includes them. Keep the pure endpoint and helper tests in the unit file. Preserve the existing database and bucket teardown behavior after the move.

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, 645371ed96, for a QA finding: a bucket endpoint with a user and a password in it was saved in the record as sent. An endpoint is now tested and kept only when it is a plain address (http or https, a host, a port, a path). Could you take a look?

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 test_migration_pause.py, so I kept both.

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.

ogabrielluiz and others added 12 commits October 8, 2026 23:31
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.
