Nautobot Jobs

Nautobot jobs are an efficient way to run your Python based network automation scripts / API calls within a controlled environment, enabling you to provide access to the entire team. Nautobot jobs also provides the ability to take user defined input from a form to trigger a job.

Nautobot Job Button

Jobs in Nautobot have to be run from the jobs menu, but there is also an option to create a button that will run the job directly from the page.

For example you can create a button on the interface page that will allow you to admin up / down a port directly from that interface page.

The button takes the port information and runs the job directly. You have to create a button receiver which is a bit different than a Nautobot job.
