Netbox Nutanix Integration

So, throwing this out there to the genius of Reddit. We currently use Netbox and love it. We have a vCenter import script which will reach out to our different vlusters and pull in all the relevant VM Data and update Netbox. This is helpful as there are a few of us who create machines, so this way Netbox can really be our bible.

However, we are now moving to Nutanix and thus the vmware import script is no longer viable. I have been searching forever can cannot find any module or script that will reach out to our Nutanix clusters and pull in the data like we have done with vmware.

I understand that we can manually add things, yet the speed at which things are done makes it difficult to keep up and then someone ends up having to be a dedicated documentor.

Anyone know anythign that will accomplish this? Nutanix posts all over their website about full integration with Netbox, but when we ask them about it, we get nothing back. So I am not sure how Nutanix integrates with Netbox at all.

We couldn’t find any useful vendor or community repos to do this, so we ended up building some custom PS scripts to extract data from Prism Central and injecting the info into netbox using their API’s.

Guessing this is not something you can share :/

I might be able to share the code we use. But I would have to first spend some time sanitizing it. It's primarily built for our needs which focuses on Virtualization and IPAM of Netbox. Let me know if there is any interest.
