NetBox version

v.4.2.5

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Make it possible to import cables with the color name instead of the hex code.

Currently, color names get rejected and a hex code is demanded.

Image

Use case

Would allow our Data Center Staff to enter more human-friendly color names instead of having to deal with hex codes.

Database changes

Possibly, yes - from what I can see of the API data, only the hex code is stored, not the color name

External dependencies

None
