hardware inventory in ESXi8 fails

We have problems to run any tools which scan the inventory of ESXi 8 hosts. vDocumentation and asBuiltReport do not work anymore. I am not sure if this is the right forum. This seems to be an SDK problem:

New-AsBuiltReport: Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Rows' because it is an empty collection.
At line:1 char:1
New-AsBuiItReport -Report VMware.vSphere -Target _vCenter_
+ CategoryInfo: NotSpecified: (:) [Write-Error],WriteErrorException
