NetBox version

v3.5.7 with netbox_secrets_plugin v1.8.5

Python version

3.8

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a python sript as the following:

### secret_key=fichero.read()
nb = pynetbox.api(url=url, token=token)
#where url is the IP address of your netbox installation, token is the token associated to your user netbox to access to the >#API, and secret_key is your private_key with you can decrypt or add new secrets to netbox
session_key = nb.plugins.secrets.session_keys.create(preserve_key=True, private_key=secret_key)
session = requests.Session()
session.headers = {'X-Session-Key': session_key.session_key}
nb.http_session = session
nb.plugins.secrets.secrets.create(
assigned_object_type='dcim.device',
assigned_object_id=426,
name="test",
plaintext="1234",
role=1
)

  1. Run the script to try to add the secret.
  2. Check that the update has been done correctly.

Expected Behavior

The secret has been added correctly

Observed Behavior

I think that the problem maybe is a bug in the plugin but i am not sure.
The logs show:
_Traceback (most recent call last):
File "prueba4.py", line 49, in
session_key = nb.plugins.secrets.session_keys.create(preserve_key=True, private_key=secret_key)
File "/home/ubuntu/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pynetbox/core/endpoint.py", line 415, in create
).post(args[0] if args else kwargs)
File "/home/ubuntu/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pynetbox/core/query.py", line 357, in post
return self._make_call(verb="post", data=data)

raise RequestError(req)
pynetbox.core.query.RequestError: The request failed with code 400 Bad Request but more specific details were not returned in json. Check the NetBox Logs or investigate this exception's error attribute.

You should see it on your netbox logging system.
