  • NetBox version: 2.2.8

Description

* A list of the steps needed for someone else to reproduce the bug

  1. get the openapi spec; for example, running a laptop instance, this URL would be: "http://0.0.0.0:32768/api/docs/?format=openapi". or you could use use curl or wget.

  2. at the very bottom, you will see "securityDefinitions" indicating basic auth. basic auth is not supported in Netbox 2.2.8.

    * A description of the expected and observed behavior

Here is an example of a system that uses request headers to store a token. In this example, the header key is called "AUTHTOKEN". For Netbox, this would be "Authorization", as documented on the read-the-docs site.
