Netbox integration
-
Hi!
I’ve read the documentation on how to automatically push data into NetBox:
https://docs.xen-orchestra.com/advanced#netboxThat works great — it pushes data without any manual API calls.
But is it also possible to pull data from NetBox into XO/XCP-ng in a similar automatic way?The docs only describe the push direction. Is there any support or plans for pull integration as well?
Thanks!

Hi,
It's a very complex problem. How to decide what to get and what to push? What to overwrite?
See the comment there: https://github.com/vatesfr/xen-orchestra/issues/7773

@olivierlambert Just to clarify — is it possible to also pull/extract data from NetBox into XO/XCP-ng, or is the integration strictly push-only? The GitHub issue doesn’t really discuss that part.
Also, is there any official documentation on your side that covers this, or is it only about pushing data to NetBox?

Right now, it's XO -> Netbox only. As soon as you want something bidirectional, the complexity is exponential. I'm not closed to the idea, but we need to carefully think about the how and what's really expected functionally speaking from our users
