Problems with basic HA field functionality (ie. lookups) not working and more

I’m a couple months into HA and have LOVED it until now. I’m currently on OS 15.2, version 2025.05.03, Frontend 20250516.0 - When I create a new Area and try to associate it with a Floor or add an Icon, or when I add a new device try to associate it with an Area the lookup fields are not working. It seems like I’m having problems with basic functionality and now I’m questioning the integrity of this system. Or my skill level is too weak for this.

Additionally I’m having problems with integrations that should be working and are not. Why do I say they should be working? Because I had them working and stupidly went back to an earlier version from a backup because I was having problems, but didn’t save that backup with the integration that was working. I bought a Eufy E28 and had it integrated through Matter, went backwards a release due to issues with another integration and the issue above, couldn’t get it working on the backup, reinstalled the new release, and now I still can’t get it working. The integration also failing immediately telling me that “You may need to restart you accessory before you can add it to your home.” which I done 6 times.

Also, I’ve recently installed an Apollo MTR-1 and that was easy. BUT when I try to install the Ploty Graph Card for my dashboard it will absolutely not work. I’ve repeated the installation exactly as instructed, adding the YABL code, etc. with no success.

Having some other issues too. I’m so frustrated that I’m questioning if I made the right decision committing to HA. I’m hoping there is a patch coming out that resolves some of this and hopefully I’m making some mistakes as well. Any guidance or insights you have is greatly appreciated.

To clarify…

  • You were on 2025.05.03
  • You restored a backup of an earlier version (2025.04.x?)
  • You made changes
  • You updated to 2025.05.03 again

Your issues are with…

  • Areas and floors
  • The Eufy E28 integration
  • Plotly graph card
  • “Another integration” (which one?)

Have you checked the release notes for 2025.05 - particularly breaking changes?

Presumably you’re using the custom Robovac integration from HACS? Have you checked their issues page? At least one suggests that the E28 is not supported.

For Plotly and Areas/floors I think we need more details about the problem - maybe one at a time rather than all in the same post. :grin:

Clear your cache and refresh the page. The functionality behind those search bars changed.

Thank you so much for responding. Unfortunately that did not resolve the field lookup issue.

Thank you so much for responding. I’ll take a close look at the release notes. E28 is not officially supported but I’ve seen posts where you can get it working through Matter integration and I did get it working for a period of time.

Also great feedback on my post. I was too frustrated to post and was hoping there was an overlying theme to all of the issues that seemed to have appeared at the same time.

I did switch my browser and that fixed the issue. THANK YOU! Maybe I didn’t fully clear the cache?
