Zigbee2Mqtt Topic stopped working after 18.1.1 update

[Marcos-kp]

Problem/Motivation

All my Zigbee buttons that have a mqtt node stopped working.

Expected behavior

When a button is pressed, I expect an action to appear in Node-red trough the mqtt node.

Actual behavior

Nothing happens, no output at all. When listening to events in HA, I get:
event_type: state_changed data: entity_id: sensor.botao_escritorio_action old_state: entity_id: sensor.botao_escritorio_action state: single attributes: icon: mdi:gesture-double-tap friendly_name: Botão Escritório Action last_changed: "2024-10-03T17:11:06.599855+00:00" last_reported: "2024-10-03T17:11:06.599855+00:00" last_updated: "2024-10-03T17:11:06.599855+00:00" context: id: 01J99NT9K71DGK3F56MDYJDPFG parent_id: null user_id: null new_state: entity_id: sensor.botao_escritorio_action state: "" attributes: icon: mdi:gesture-double-tap friendly_name: Botão Escritório Action last_changed: "2024-10-03T17:11:06.601384+00:00" last_reported: "2024-10-03T17:11:06.601384+00:00" last_updated: "2024-10-03T17:11:06.601384+00:00" context: id: 01J99NT9K978F00V8XEEC4JDG0 parent_id: null user_id: null origin: LOCAL time_fired: "2024-10-03T17:11:06.601384+00:00" context: id: 01J99NT9K978F00V8XEEC4JDG0 parent_id: null user_id: null
Logs:

Also looking at the Mqtt integration I see the action when pressing the button.

The same here, with a response from a Yale device (door lock). It returns:

action: "unlock"
action_source: 2
action_source_name: "manual"
action_user: 0
auto_relock_time: null
battery: 100
battery_low: null
linkquality: 120
lock_state: "locked"
pin_code: null
sound_volume: null
state: "LOCK"

and I receive error message about the "action" node, and I really don't know how could I fix it (should be fixed in the Z2M? In the Node Red add-on?)

"InputError: Invalid action format: unlock"

Issue I reported looks to be the same.

Just confirming that rolling back to 18.0.5, things work again. I also had an issue where I wasn't able to interact with inject nodes.

Hi everyone.
Any news here?

Just confirming that rolling back to 18.0.5, things work again. I also had an issue where I wasn't able to interact with inject nodes.

does it look like this?

and has anyone found a workaround? 18.1.1 does not seem to work for me.

Yes, it does!
Still nothing from the developers, and I have no idea if these issues have been looked at.

Also, I updated all my Node-RED palettes, updated Node-RED again to check, and still the issue with Z2MQTT persists but fixes the inject node issue. Rolling back to 18.0.5 makes things work again.

Figured the issue: and its described here
