NetBox version

v3.6.4

Python version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create Site Site A
  2. Create Site Site B
  3. Create Location Floor 1 in Site A with slug floor-1
  4. Create Location Floor 1 in Site B with slug floor-1
  5. Navigate to Locations > bulk import
  6. Paste the following to get the error
site,parent,name,slug,status
Site B,Floor 1,Loc A,loc-a,active
  1. Delete Location Floor 1 in Site A
  2. Paste the same again with success

Expected Behavior

A new Location, Loc A, with a parent location of Floor 1 in site Site B should have been imported

Observed Behavior

It appears the query for locations to check for duplicates is not limiting to the defined Site. Instead, the following error is returned:

Record 1 parent: "Floor 1" is not a unique value for this field; multiple objects were found

@jeremystretch I am currently contemplating the best approach to resolve the issue. The error seems to originate from Django's side.

@kprince28 ok, I'm going to open this back up for a new owner in case someone else would like to work on it. If you reach the point where you have a PR ready for review, please let me know and I'll reassign it to you.
