The configuration I made in odoo native node was working absolutely fine until n8n was not updated, with the recent two versions of n8n, it is giving this server issue.
I am using api key only instead of password and no trailing slash to setup the connection and it's successful.
Is this any version compatibility issue?

Hello Anisha,
I hope you are doing well
The error [object Object] in n8n's Odoo node means the API call to fetch fields is failing. Most likely causes:
*1. Wrong model name* - Use the exact technical name like crm.lead, not "Leads"
*2. Insufficient permissions* - The API user needs read access to the model
*3. URL issue* - No trailing slash, correct https://, no proxy blocking /xmlrpc/
*4. Use API Key* (Odoo 14+) instead of password
*Workaround:* Skip the native Odoo node and use n8n's *HTTP Req
