Salesforce 'Create Contact' node (among others) not working

I’m posting this again because I am still stuck and this is causing delays in a project I’m trying to work on. I submitted a bug report 2 weeks ago, so far no update. Someone else posted this same issue back in March in the forum, and there was no outcome/resolution. Can someone please assist?!

Describe the problem/error/question

bug report > Issue with Salesforce create contact / upsert contact node · Issue #20785 · n8n-io/n8n · GitHub

march forum post > https://community.n8n.io/t/issue-with-the-create-salesforce-contact-node/93611

When adding a Create Contact or Create or Update Contact node for Salesforce, the Additional Fields option ‘Account Name or ID’ perpetually loads, if it does load it freezes the workflow, and crashes the browser.

In the post from March the comments suggest it is an authentication issue - I can successfully use all other Salesforce nodes with the same creds so this cannot be the issue. The post from March is closed, so I am unsure if the user ever resolved their issue.

What is the error message (if any)?

None, since this usually tries to crash the window and I can’t run the node.
