jinja2 non device/site specific VLAN?

[mostdaysarebaddays]

Can I get just the full VLANs list, not those specific to VLAN site etc? Looking to just call 'ipam.vlans' but that gives an error.

I know you can use 'device.site.vlans.all()' for site specific but the VLAN in question 'generic' and in a VLAN group, not in any site.

(my goal here is to get the prefix assigned to a certain 'generic' VLAN for that site but need to get the VLAN first)

Show the call, and show the error. It works for me.

# curl -sS -H "Authorization: Token $TOKEN" "$NETBOX/api/ipam/vlans/" | jq .

I am guessing from the context of your question that the problem may be with your use of the pynetbox REST client library. But that works for me too:

>>> for v in nb.ipam.vlans.all():
...     print(v)

It works fine with pynetbox or api, I'm trying to call using 'render config' and jinja2 which only seems to be aware of its current device and not the greater Netbox.

Ah right. In that case what you want was added in Netbox v3.6.0, but you didn't say what version you're using.

Enhancements

...
#12814 - Expose NetBox models within ConfigTemplate rendering context

Documentation here. It looks like ipam.VLAN.objects.all() is what you want.

Thank you! I’m on 3.6 and I totally missed this. Hugely appreciated.
