That sounds like some next level Sherlock Holmes-stuff 😊 . Glad that you both were able to track down and solve the issue.

Hi John William,

Where is the screenshot coming from?  
Do you use [https://my.homey.app](https://my.homey.app), or the local editor `http://homey.ip.address/` ?

Which request is it for? For a binary file/script? Then it’s completely normal.

Is it a SocketIO message? That’s normal, it just returns all available Flowcards.

That’ll be a triggercard (guessumption).  
Could it be a “When device is X during Y [time unit]” flow card?  
What info (below the listing) is presented when you tap/click that paricular entry?

If you meant this, then it seems to be the WHEN flow started cards?

Yes this points to these card types

As you can see i have a few with insanely long lengths…

(The biggest number 1365966 is the WHEN flow started cards.)

That’s normal. The Web App loads every Flowcard at once, instead of “lazy loading” which most websites use. So every single Flowcard is loaded at once on the Homey webapp. I also don’t understand why it does that, but that’s a design decision from Athom

Live with it.  
It is a long standing problem of sluggish implementation and as things stand today Athom will probably not adress it in any forseeable future.

This was caused by some Homey apps extensively calling setCapabilityOptions, which caused Flowcards to get re-created. Which apps do you use on your Homey? And are they all on the latest version?
