Environment

  • Python version: 2.7.13
  • NetBox version: v2.4.6

Proposed Functionality

If one goes to devices -> device types you can click the number in the column instances to see all devices of that type.

I'd like the same for the column instances at the page organization -> tags so we can get a page with all devices bearing that tag.

Use Case

We are gonna use tags in our network automation, beginning with specifying when and how often a backup is taken from each device. It will be very useful to be able to see which devices have the same tag.

Database Changes

None expected

External Dependencies

None expected

@jeremystretch commented on GitHub (Nov 6, 2018):

The number of devices assigned to each tag is included in the tags list on the devices list view (Devices > Devices). You can also view the total number of objects assigned to each tag under Organization > Tags.
