Users in Custom Script

[therealpoys]

Hello,

I want to develop a Custom Script,where I need the Users in an "ObjectVar".
Is this possible?
I tried it with :
`
from extras.scripts import *
from django.contrib.auth.models import Group, User

section name

name = 'Allocate contacts to devices'

class allocatecontacts2device(Script):

class Meta:
    """
    defines script attributes
    """
    name = "Allocate contacts to devices"
    description = '''Script creates or updates a connection between 2 virtual machines in netbox.'''
    commit_default = False
    
user = ObjectVar(
    label='user',
    description="user",
    model=User,
)

`
Greetings,
Jannik

My understanding of custom scripts is that ObjectVar only applies to netbox models. User being a django model, I doubt this is possible.

Looking at your example however, it seems that you are trying to use "User" in place of "Contact" which should be a legit netbox model in an ObjectVar script variable. Beware that using contacts implies using contact roles and contact assignments.

Syncing User table and Contact table is a totally different issue of course :)

Thank you!
It Works.

FYI I'm pretty sure you should still be able to reference the User and/or Group models provided by Django, since there's a REST API endpoint for it. If it's not working, you may have run into a bug.
