Environment

  • Python version: 3.6.x
  • NetBox version: 2.5.8

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create 2 DeviceRoles and set one to be a VM Role = True and one to VM Role = False
  2. Go to VirtualMachine list view and look in the filter box for Role.

Expected Behavior

Only one role should be visible as there is filtering for vm_role=True in the queryset.

Observed Behavior

Both DeviceRoles is visible in the dropdown menu.

Solution

Change "vm_role": "true" to "vm_role": "True" at the following three locations.
