Hello,
since updating to Home Assistant version 2025.6.1, all Home Assistant entities (especially sensors) created via Node-RED are no longer available in Home Assistant. The connection between Node-RED and Home Assistant otherwise works as expected.
Technical details:
Home Assistant version: 2025.6.1
Node-RED add-on: 19.0.2
node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket: 0.77.0
Configuration: Entities are created using Home Assistant entity nodes in Node-RED
Logs: No relevant errors in Node-RED or Home Assistant logs
Troubleshooting steps taken:
Restarted both Home Assistant and Node-RED multiple times
No reinstallation of the add-on yet
Issue started: Immediately after updating Home Assistant
Request:
Assistance diagnosing the incompatibility between HA 2025.6.1 and the Node-RED websocket integration
Suggestions to restore entity availability in Home Assistant
I am happy to provide additional logs or configuration details if needed. Thank you for your support!
I have the same versions and it’s working fine - so probably not a compatibility issue…
What version of Node-RED Companion are you running? 4.1.2 appears to be the latest.
It’s also 4.1.2
Does it show your old entities there as disabled? I am also on the same versions as you and everything is working for me as well. When you go into NR on the right choose the config node panel, do you see the config nodes for each entity?
If the nodes are there, open one and make sure you have a server selected. You should have only one ha server in the drop down. If there are more, you can see them in the same panel and consolidate them to one.
I am struggling with the same issues, did you find a solution

What version of the Node‑RED Companion custom component do you currently have installed in Home Assistant? You can find this using the diagnostic tool in Node‑RED:
https://zachowj.github.io/node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket/guide/diagnostics.html
My suspicion is you’re running an outdated version, and updating it may resolve the issue.
Version: 0.73.0
Home Assistant version: 2025.5.3*
Companion version: 1.4.0
Node-RED version: 4.0.9
Docker: yes
Add-on: 19.0.2
*I restore a backup to 2025.5.3. yesterday.
Based on the diagnostic info, you have version 1.4.0 of the custom component installed, which is about 2 years old. The latest version is 4.1.2. Updating to the latest version will likely resolve the issue.
Thank you, Kermit.
…and I always thought that the Companium also received automatic updates.
Hello, I think I have the same problem and I’m using the latest versions :
- node-red-contrib-home-assistant-websocket 0.77.2
- home assistant core 2025.7.3
- Node-RED Companion 4.1.2
I confirm that nodered can get information from existing home assistant sensors, that I have a single home assistant server in nodered, and that nodered connects successfully to the server.
But new entities in nodered don’t get created in home assistant.
nodered | 28 Jul 06:45:34 - [info] [server:Home Assistant] Connecting to http://localhost:8123
nodered | 28 Jul 06:45:34 - [info] [server:Home Assistant] Connected to http://localhost:8123
nodered | 28 Jul 06:45:36 - [error] [ha-binary-sensor:test sensor] InputError: Integration not loaded
Indeed, in the Node-RED Companion integration, I see a panel saying : name Not loaded. But I see no way to load it.
Have you restarted HA? If that doesn’t resolve the issue, remove the integration, restart and then reinstall.
Hello and thanks for your answer. Yes, I had tried that.
In the meanwhile I found the problem. I finally noticed that the nodered integration was complaining about mqtt not being ready, and found an obsolete mqtt section in my yaml config.
I simply removed this section (not needed since I use zigbee2mqtt and nodered to manage mqtt connection), and the integration loaded! I now have all my nodered entities.
