Originally created by @AnythingOverIP on GitHub (Jan 8, 2021).

Environment

  • Python version:
  • NetBox version: 2.10.2

When doing a bulk device import with a non-existing device type value will return the following error message: "Object import failed due to object-level permissions violation"

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Prepare an import batch (a few lines)
  2. Change one of the device_type to something that does not exist
  3. launch the import

Expected Behavior

A warning saying: Row X device_type: Object not found.

Observed Behavior

error message: Object import failed due to object-level permissions violation

This behavior is also reproducible using a non existing manufacturer. (haven't tested all columns).

Also weird: a wrong manufaturer returns "Object import failed due to object-level permissions violation", but a wrong manufacturer with a wrong rack name returns the expected warning:

  • Row 1 manufacturer: Object not found.
  • Row 1 device_type: Object not found.
  • Row 1 rack: Object not found.

This is only on bulk import correct?

@DanSheps That's the only place I witnessed it. I'm not leveraging API at the moment, so I wouldn't be able to tell you if it behaves correctly.
