Update services not working with the label option provided in the developer tools UI

[solomongumbie]

The problem

I assigned a couple of labels to my 50 something esphome devices "update.name" entities and then used the services tab under developers tools to craft a service that skips updates on all of these devices. When I run this service nothing happens, no updates are skipped. I then did some tests and noticed that it wasn't working for update.skip, update.install or update.clear_skipped when using the label option.

service: update.skip
target:
  label_id:
    - esphome_priority_update
    - esphome_standard_update
data: {}

I've been having a similar issue.

After some testing, the update.install service does not seem to work with labels, areas, or even devices, it must be directly given the update entities.

No error is given, as far as I can find, the service returns immediately.

I've tested with ESPHome, Shelly, Add-Ons, Unifi, and HACS, all of which provide update entities.

This issue still exists. Updates can not be applied to devices by label.
