[Bug]: netbox_service module

[yodzeb]

Ansible NetBox Collection version

v3.21.0

Ansible version

using this task:

    - name: Create service
      netbox.netbox.netbox_service:
        netbox_url: "{{ netbox_url }}"
        netbox_token: "{{ netbox_token }}"
        data:
          device: mydevice
          name: ServiceX
          ports: 9100
          protocol: TCP
          ipaddresses:
            - address: 10.1.0.1
        state: present

Produces this output:

TASK [Create service] ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "{\"parent_object_type\":[\"This field is required.\"],\"parent_object_id\":[\"This field is required.\"]}"}

Another error appears when setting a virtual_machine instead of a device:

TASK [Create service] ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "virtual_machine does not exist on existing object. Check to make sure valid field."}

My netbox inventory stopped working. VMs do not get their services attached on pull. I believe this to be part of this issue and the related Pull request. WHat's missing? Can I help?
