NetBox v2.8

v2.9.0 (FUTURE)

New Features

Object-Based Permissions (#554)

NetBox v2.9 replaces Django's built-in permissions framework with one that supports object-based assignment of permissions using arbitrary constraints. When granting a user or group to perform a certain action on one or more types of objects, an administrator can optionally specify a set of attributes. The permission will apply only to objects which match the specified attributes. For example, assigning permission to modify devices with the attribute filter {"tenant__group__name": "Customers"} would grant the permission only for devices assigned to a tenant belonging to the "Customers" group.

Configuration Changes

REMOTE_AUTH_DEFAULT_PERMISSIONS now takes a dictionary rather than a list. This is a mapping of permission names to a dictionary of constraining attributes, or None. For example, ['dcim.add_site', 'dcim.change_site'] would become {'dcim.add_site': None, 'dcim.change_site': None}.

Other Changes

The secrets.activate_userkey permission no longer exists. Instead, secrets.change_userkey is checked to determine whether a user has the ability to activate a UserKey.
The users.delete_token permission is no longer enforced. All users are permitted to delete their own API tokens.
