Deployment Type

Self-hosted

NetBox Version

v3.7.8, v4.1.11

Python Version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

payload = json.dumps(
        {
            "data": "",
            "schedule_at": schedule_at,
            "interval": interval,
            "commit": True,
        }
    )

schedule_at : "2025-02-28 11:59:00"
interval: 1

response = requests.post(script_url, headers=HEADERS, data=payload)

While scheduling a script via API, if i use the above payload for a netbox running 3.7.8, 2 observations are seen

The URL returned for script is named like
http://localhost:8000/api/extras/scripts/all_creds.CredentialStore/
However, if i send the same POST request to netbox running 4.1.11, the URL returned is with ID
http://x.x.x.x/api/extras/scripts/54/
I am able to successfully able to schedule the script on 3.7.8 with that payload however on v4.1.11, i am getting this error with exact same payload.
{"error": "'Script' object has no attribute 'scheduling_enabled'",
"exception": "AttributeError", "netbox_version": "4.1.11", "python_version": "3.12.3"}

I am ensuring that i have set, scheduling_enabled = True, although it doesn't matter here

class CredentialStore(Script):
    class Meta:
        name = "Credential Store"
        description = "Credential Store for Netbox Scripts"
        job_timeout = 86400
        scheduling_enabled = True

Having named URLS make is so much easier in case i have a netbox script with multiple classes, so to reference which script i want to execute / schedule is so much easier with scriptname.module approach rather than figuring out the ID of that script dynamically.

Expected Behavior

What is the correct approach to schedule a script via API on v4.1.11 ?
How can i convert the URL nomenclature for /api/scripts from ID based to name based as in v.3.7.8

Observed Behavior

What is the correct approach to schedule a script via API on v4.1.11 ?
How can i convert the URL nomenclature for /api/scripts from ID based to name based as in v.3.7.8
