I'm pretty embarrassed to ask this but I've spent hours trying to sort this out with no luck.

I get
ValueError: get() returned more than one result. Check that the kwarg(s) passed are valid for this endpoint or use filter() or all() instead.
when running python3 -m netbox_agent.cli -c ./agent.yaml --register

Here is the /etc/qualification file ( where I suspect the real issue is)

DATACENTER:

id: dmin-1 # I've also tried setting this to the id number in the data base (1)

agent.yaml

 # Netbox configuration

netbox:

url: 'http://netbox'

token: xxxx

# Network configuration

network:

 # Regex to ignore interfaces  

 ignore_interfaces: "(dummy.*|docker.*)"

 # Regex to ignore IP addresses

 ignore_ips: (127\.0\.0\..*)

 # enable auto-cabling by parsing LLDP answers

 lldp: true

## Enable virtual machine support  

# virtual:

#   # not mandatory, can be guessed

#   enabled: True

#   # see https://netbox.company.com/virtualization/clusters/

#   cluster_name: my_vm_cluster

# Enable datacenter location feature in Netbox

datacenter_location:

driver: "cmd:cat /etc/qualification | tr [a-z] [A-Z]"

regex: "DATACENTER: (?P<datacenter>[A-Za-z0-9]+)"

# driver: 'cmd:lldpctl'

# regex: 'SysName: .*\.([A-Za-z0-9]+)'

#

# driver: "file:/tmp/datacenter"

# regex: "(.*)"

# Enable rack location feature in Netbox

rack_location:

# driver: 'cmd:lldpctl'

# match SysName: sw-dist-a1.dc42

# regex: 'SysName:[ ]+[A-Za-z]+-[A-Za-z]+-([A-Za-z0-9]+)'

#

# driver: "file:/tmp/datacenter"

# regex: "(.*)"

# Enable local inventory reporting  

inventory: true

Hi,

From reading the code, it seems that I didn't manage the case where you only specify the datacenter.
You should also specify the rack

I'll see if I can manage a PR to make your case work

Thanks for your help. In my situation, I have hundreds of servers already deployed and I currently don't have a good way of managing elevations ( hence netbox). My plan was to get all the gear in netbox then update their locations afterwards.

Ok :)
I understand the workflow and make sure it's supported

the agent assumes that you have an existing DeviceRole called Server to be assigned to the server created or updated

Makes sense, is there a way to override this in the agent?

Thanks that would be awesome. I'm doing this manually to start but the plan is to wrap this all up with ansible. I'll Define the roles in the inventory.

Issue has been closed automatically, but I've also merged the role support that you can use by passing --device.chassis_role my_chassis_role --device.blade_role my_blade_role

Let me know if it works for you

From the tests I've done everything's ok :)

I pulled the changes. I'm still having issues just different issues. I think maybe I just don't quite understand the info I need to provide.

netbox-agent]$ python3 -m netbox_agent.cli -c ../agent.yml --register --device.chassis_role docker-host
ERROR:root:Specificing a datacenter (Site) is mandatory in Netbox

I made the datacenter mandatory to create your device, you must specify the datacenter like:

datacenter_location:
  driver: "cmd:echo my-dc"
  regex: "(.*)"
