Prefix add functions no longer functional with NetBox 4.2.1

[rtrcwby5183]

pynetbox version

v7.4.1

NetBox version

v4.2.1

Python version

3.12

Steps to Reproduce

Using PyNetbox is conjunction with Ansible to manage prefixes for a deployment. This worked under NetBox v4.0.8. NetBox v4.2.1 changed from prefix having a "site" field to a scope definition.

• name: Add Prefix to Netbox
  netbox.netbox.netbox_prefix:
  netbox_url: "{{ netbox_url }}"
  netbox_token: "{{ netbox_api_token }}"
  data:
  prefix: "{{ item.network }}"
  site: "{{ item.site_name }}"
  description: "{{ item.description }}"
  tenant: WAN
  prefix_role: "{{ item.role | upper }}"
  vlan:
  name: "VL{{ item.vlan_id }}"
  site: "{{ item.site_name }}"
  vlan_group: "{{ item.vlan_group }}-{{ item.site_name }}"
  custom_fields:
  agency: "{{ item.agency }}"
  carrier_vrf: "{{ item.carrier_side_vrf | upper }}"
  e911_zone: "{{ item.e911_zone }}"
  tags:
  - ansible_created
  state: present
  validate_certs: false
  loop: "{{ new_csv_data }}"
  tags:

  • prefix
    When the prefix is added using the Netbox v4.0.8 "Site" definition:
    failed: [localhost] (item={'site_name': 'xxxxxx', 'network': '', 'agency': 'XXXX', 'vlan_id': '999', 'vlan_group': 'sr', 'role': 'mgt', 'carrier_side_vrf': 'xxxx', 'e911_zone': '', 'description': 'xxxxxx'}) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "item": {"agency": "XXXX", "carrier_side_vrf": "xxxx", "description": "xxxxxx", "e911_zone": "", "network": "", "role": "mgt", "site_name": "xxxxxx", "vlan_group": "sr", "vlan_id": "999"}, "msg": "site does not exist on existing object. Check to make sure valid field."}

• name: Add Prefix to Netbox
  netbox.netbox.netbox_prefix:
  netbox_url: "{{ netbox_url }}"
  netbox_token: "{{ netbox_api_token }}"
  data:
  prefix: "{{ item.network }}"
  scope_type: dcim.site
  scope:
  site: "{{ item.site_name }}"
  description: "{{ item.description }}"
  tenant: WAN
  prefix_role: "{{ item.role | upper }}"
  vlan:
  name: "VL{{ item.vlan_id }}"
  site: "{{ item.site_name }}"
  vlan_group: "{{ item.vlan_group }}-{{ item.site_name }}"
  custom_fields:
  agency: "{{ item.agency }}"
  carrier_vrf: "{{ item.carrier_side_vrf | upper }}"
  e911_zone: "{{ item.e911_zone }}"
  tags:
  - ansible_created
  state: present
  validate_certs: false
  loop: "{{ new_csv_data }}"
  tags:

  • prefix
    When the same prefix is added using the new "Scope" based definition:
    failed: [localhost] (item={'site_name': 'xxxxxx', 'network': '', 'agency': 'XXXX', 'vlan_id': '999', 'vlan_group': 'sr', 'role': 'mgt', 'carrier_side_vrf': 'xxxx', 'e911_zone': '', 'description': 'xxxxxx'}) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "item": {"agency": "XXXX", "carrier_side_vrf": "xxxx", "description": "xxxxxx", "e911_zone": "", "network": "", "role": "mgt", "site_name": "xxxxxx", "vlan_group": "sr", "vlan_id": "999"}, "msg": "Unsupported parameters for (netbox.netbox.netbox_prefix) module: data.scope, data.scope_type. Supported parameters include: comments, custom_fields, description, family, is_pool, mark_utilized, parent, prefix, prefix_length, prefix_role, site, status, tags, tenant, vlan, vrf."}

Expected Behavior

The prefixes should add to NetBox with site association through one of those two methods.

Observed Behavior

"Unsupported parameters for (netbox.netbox.netbox_prefix) module: data.scope, data.scope_type. Supported parameters include: comments, custom_fields, description, family, is_pool, mark_utilized, parent, prefix, prefix_length, prefix_role, site, status, tags, tenant, vlan, vrf."
