NetBox version

v4.0.2

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Remove the is_staff boolean field from our custom user model. (This will involve no longer subclassing the AbstractUser parent class.)

Use case

This field was carried over from Django's stock user model in NetBox v4.0. It was previously used to control access to the Django admin UI, but will no longer have any significance once support for the admin UI is completely removed.

Database changes

Removes the is_staff field from users.User.

External dependencies

None
