NetBox version

v3.1.8

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Direct users to use object in custom link text and URL templates instead of obj. Both variables will be supported until NetBox v3.5, which will remove support for the old obj variable.

Use case

object is a more natural name for the variable. obj was originally chosen (perhaps without much consideration) because it matched the underlying code. object is a reserved word in Python, but there is no technical reason not to use it in Jinja2 templates.

Database changes
