How to get all change logs linked to a particular script execution or bulk update inside?

[dylanbob]

Hi folks, and thank you for developing open-source!

I developed a script using the diffsync library (used by nautobot) to import some data (a few thousands of devices and their attributes, including other objects recursively : device_type, device_role, site, etc.) from an HTTP API.

A script execution may add, modify and/or delete entries. I would like to list them exhaustively in the web UI after the script execution (directly on the page or through a URL).

The quite handy Request ID filter of the changelog page is great, e.g. f.q.d.n/extras/changelog/?request_id=e821abb0-7a3a-45eb-... which does the trick because in my case, everything is updated in one go.
However... my current process is to check the script execution time and scroll through changelogs for the corresponding request ID, which is not practical when many entries are modified by many script executions.

I would like to be able to add a link at the end of my script execution pointing at this web UI page, but I need this request_id for that.

How may I get the request_id in my script?

NB: when using the netbox HTTP API (which I am NOT using, I am using the direct python API), the X-Request-ID HTTP header seems adequate. How could I get such information when using the direct python API?
