Issue type: bug report

Python version: 2.7.5
NetBox version: 2.0.4

Adding a VLAN Group via the API works fine, so long as I don't specify a 'site':

curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Token $token" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json; indent=4" http://$netbox_host/api/ipam/vlan-groups/ --data '{"name": "VG1", "slug": "vg1"}'

However, if I specify a site ID in the data payload, I get an HTTP 500 error back:

curl -X POST -H "Authorization: Token $token" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json; indent=4" http://$netbox_host/api/ipam/vlan-groups/ --data '{"name": "VG1", "slug": "vg1", "site": "19"}'

The error message is:

<pre><strong>&lt;class &#39;django.core.exceptions.FieldError&#39;&gt;</strong><br /> Cannot resolve keyword &#39;slug&#39; into field. Choices are: created, custom_field_values, description, group, group_id, id, last_updated, name, prefixes, role, role_id, site, site_id, status, tenant, tenant_id, vid</pre>

You are passing the site ID as the site parameter which is expecting a slug. You need to pass your ID in the site_id parameter.

@lampwins You may be thinking of the filters, where site takes a slug and site_id takes a primary key. The API calls @MattBurgess posted are both correct.

There's a bug in the serializer validation that's preventing a VLANGroup from being created if a site is assigned.
