Nautobot Provider

The Nautobot provider imports from and exports to Nautobot DCIM instances (Netbox-compatible). It uses the Nautobot REST API to sync devices, racks, and device types.

Import

# Import from a Nautobot instance
cani alpha import nautobot --url http://localhost:8081 --token $NAUTOBOT_TOKEN

Export

# Export to a Nautobot instance
cani alpha export nautobot --url http://localhost:8081 --token $NAUTOBOT_TOKEN

# Preview changes without making API calls
cani alpha export nautobot --dry-run

# Merge with existing devices instead of skipping conflicts
cani alpha export nautobot --merge
