Document supported child objects on bulk import views #11204

Open jeremystretch opened 1 year ago

jeremystretch commented 1 year ago

NetBox version

v3.4.0

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Certain types of objects in NetBox, such as device types and module types, support the simultaneous import of various child objects (e.g. component templates) during bulk import. However, these child objects are not documented as supported under each form as they local fields ares. Ideally, we should annotate support for child objects wherever relevant.

Use case

This will convey to users that the functionality exists where they might not otherwise realize, and serve as a reference.

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. NetBox is governed by a small group of core maintainers which means not all opened issues may receive direct feedback. Do not attempt to circumvent this process by "bumping" the issue; doing so will result in its immediate closure and you may be barred from participating in any future discussions. Please see our contributing guide.

Hi @jeremystretch I'd like to volunteer for documenting this behaviour.

Anything I need to communicate beforehand, or should I start with a PR?
