Is it just me or is the search function in Dynamo Revit only available for one instance of Dynamo?
The search function for nodes works fine in Dynamo until you open a second instance, in this new session of Dynamo, the search function just doesn’t do anything:
Closing both sessions and then reopening the session that doesn’t allow searching solves the issue.
             
            
              
              
              
            
            
           
          
            
            
              Yes - the search isn’t built for concurrent use in some builds. Typically Revit licenses only permit one active instance at a time (well over 90% of all cases) so this wasn’t accounted for when the application first shipped, but I believe this has been resolved in 2025. Make sure you’re fully updated and if not know it is resolved in a future build.

              Good to know!
I was working in Revit 2024 so that probably explains it then
