Netbox Dynamic Inventory Integration with Semaphore

Ansible Badge Netbox Badge

🛠 Key Features​

This repository demonstrates the use of the netbox.netbox.nb_inventory plugin to create a dynamic inventory in Semaphore. It enables automatic synchronization of data from Netbox, simplifying the management of your infrastructure and the execution of Ansible playbooks.

🔧 Setup​

Requirements​

  • Access to Semaphore
  • Access to Netbox with configured API

🔑 Netbox Setup​

Ensure your Netbox is configured and accessible for API interaction. Obtain an API token which will be used to authenticate requests.

📡 Configuration in Semaphore​

  1. In Semaphore, go to the inventory section.

  2. Create a new inventory.

  3. Enter the following settings for the plugin configuration:

    plugin: netbox.netbox.nb_inventory
    api_endpoint: http://your_netbox_url_here
    token: YOUR_NETBOX_API_TOKEN
    validate_certs: False
    config_context: False

    Replace http://your_netbox_url_here and YOUR_NETBOX_API_TOKEN with the actual data from your Netbox.

🚀 Usage​

Once configured, you can run Ansible playbooks in Semaphore using the dynamic inventory which automatically updates host data from your Netbox.
