Field 'id' expected a number but got ''

[yomiury]

NetBox version

v4.2.2

Topology Views version

v 4.2.0

Steps to Reproduce

Access to the topology views did not show anything.
When I try to search using the following settings:
show_cables: True
show_logical_connections: True
group_locations: True
node_label_items: devicename
role_id: 7
role_id: 2
role_id: 1
The server responds with a 500 Internal Server Error.

Expected Behavior

Show the topology

Observed Behavior

<class 'ValueError'>

Field 'id' expected a number but got ''.

Python version: 3.12.3
NetBox version: 4.2.2
Plugins:
netbox_napalm_plugin: 0.3.1
netbox_qrcode: 0.0.16
netbox_topology_views: 4.2.0

I see this too, but it is browser dependent. It works in Edge, but not in Chrome or Firefox.

Looking at the network requests performed by the different browser, I notice a difference when I select a saved filter and click the Search button.

Edge:
Performs a request to topology/?filter_id=6

Chrome and Firefox:
Perform a request to topology/?q=&filter_id=6&group=&show_unconnected=&show_cables=&show_logical_connections=&show_single_cable_logical_conns=[...]

If I manually remove just the "group=" parameter from the URL, the topology is rendered correctly.

I am on Netbox v4.2.4 and Topology Views v4.2.4.

Another observation: If I select 'default' in the Coordinate group drop-down, and click Search, the request contains group=1, and doesn't give the ValueError. However, no topology is actually shown. But if I then click in the Chrome address field and just press enter to request the page again, the topology is shown.

Ah! This problem only occurs when the experimental HTMX Navigation is enabled in personal preferences.

I actually don't see what we can do here for the moment. It seems that HTMX is to blame which can only be fixed upstream.
