Just installed HACS unable to download anything due to forever loading

I am able to search for custom cards and entities but I am unable to download it since it keeps on spinning. Any help would be appreciated. It spins for over 10 minutes and still nothing.

Make sure that HACS has been added as an integration. Install Info

I’ve had a wacky GitHub API issue where it needs an hour before it starts working. Give it an hour without restarting HA, and see if the issue is fixed.

Restart HA

Reinstall HACS

Update HACS and HA to the latest version and restart.
Now everything should work fine

Give me a hint, I can only download one thing at a time from Hacs, then the loop turns to dead.

I’m having the exact same problem…
were you able to solve it ?

In my case, the problem was with IPv6 communication. I had neither the time nor have the knowledge how to investigate communication problem, so I just turned off IPv6 communication. After that, the download worked flawlessly and quickly.

Thanks, that solved it, temporarily.

I’m also having this issue. I’m not sure how to turn of IPv6 communication nor i’m not sure I want to do that. Has anyone found a workaround/solve for this?

It seems that Github can’t handle IPv6.
Try this in Home Assistant → Settings → Network
