Question: After building a Dify workflow, how can I ensure that the next query is not influenced by the previous query history? How should I modify this in the interface? Thanks! #7861

Hey @Wheeeeeeeeels! I'm here to help you with any bugs, questions, or contribute to Dify. Let me know how I can assist you!

To ensure that the next query in a Dify workflow is not influenced by the previous query history, you should avoid enabling the memory feature and not use if/else nodes that incorporate previous context. By default, Dify's Knowledge Retrieval + ChatFlow performs a new search for each question without considering the chat context, so no modification is needed if you want to maintain this behavior. If you have previously configured memory settings or if/else nodes for context-based routing, you should disable them to ensure each query is independent. Additionally, ensure that you are not using a question classifier that might influence the context based on previous interactions.

If you are using Expert Mode, you can further ensure independence by managing the context and conversation history parameters. In Expert Mode, you have the ability to adjust the position of context and chat history within the prompts, and you can choose not to include conversation history in your prompt setup. This mode allows you to freely write complete prompts and modify built-in prompts, ensuring that each query is treated independently [1][2].

Workflow intends to be a one-off task, it does not have memory. if you would like to ask a question, please head to Discussions.
