@candlerb commented on GitHub (Aug 15, 2019):

You have to select from the Site and Rack dropdowns first.

I agree that the default behaviour (of allowing you to see unracked devices only) is not helpful.

I proposed a change of behaviour in #3310.

It might also be helpful, if no site/rack is selected, to allow searching across all device - but beware that in future, it has been proposed that device names will only be unique within a site.

This is what happens on v2.6.4. Not sure when/if the behavior changed.
