It might be only me, but it took about and hour to guess that the scripts needed to be uploaded to netbox and run from there as opposed to running them from my pc.
Maybe if the "running custom scripts" was more in the start of the document or mentioned in the first paragraph I would have understood it faster.
This is the main page on custom scripts here and this is the section about running the scripts here

Thanks for your help
