Originally created by @TheNerdyHamster on GitHub (Mar 25, 2025).

Deployment Type

Self-hosted

NetBox Version

v4.2.6

Python Version

3.12

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Set up a data source (tested with local filesystem and git).
  2. Create a new config template using the data source and a specific data_file.

Example POST request to /api/extras/config-templates/:

{
  "name": "Test template",
  "template_code": "{{ template }}",
  "data_source": {
    "name": "test"
  },
  "data_file": {
    "path": "test"
  }
}
  1. View the config template and you will see the raw template_code value {{ template }}, not the rendered content from the data_file.
  2. Edit the config template (without making any changes) and click save.
  3. After saving, the template is now rendered correctly from the datasource file.

Expected Behavior

The template content should be rendered from the data_file immediately after creation, without needing a manual update.

Observed Behavior

Initially, the config template shows the value from template_code instead of loading the actual template from the datasource file. Only after editing/saving does it correctly load from the datasource.

@TheNerdyHamster Can you please provide the sample config template you are using what fields you are using. The information you have provided is not sufficient for someone else to attempt to reproduce the reported behavior. Remember, each bug report must include detailed steps that someone else can follow on a clean, empty NetBox installation to reproduce the exact problem you're experiencing. These instructions should include the creation of any involved objects, any configuration changes, and complete accounting of the actions being taken.
