**Describe the bug:**  
When I click on a specific list in a specific menu, the screen turns black entirely.

**Expected Behaviour:**  
I should be able to see the Form Screen of the item clicked.

Not really keen on sharing a Loom or more screenshot as I don’t want to share private data.

All my other menus and lists and Detail Screen / Form Screen are working normally.

Hope you’re doing well, and that my question is not too stupid grimacing Since this morning, there is one page of my app that i can’t open in the app builder, it always gives me a black page : every menu from the builder disappear, there are no more button, just a blank black page. - oh no, I lied.

I forgot to update 🤦‍♂️

I contacted the support, they were very nice, and it magically disappeared before they did anything specific. Too efficient I guess 🤷

But it doesn’t help you much… Sorry !

I just got the same thing! Reached out to support and hoping that fixes it magically.

In the meantime, any update on this issue or how to resolve?
