If you're upgrading from older NetBox versions be aware of the change of custom_fields.
Only _ are allowed since 3.2 and - are not permitted anymore.
example: vcsa_last-backup will turn into vcsa_last_backup

What you need to do in NetBox:

  • change description of OLD custom field
  • delete OLD custom field in NetBox
  • Sync again
  • configure table in list with new available column of new custom field in NetBox after the sync completed

Removed config options:

  • sync_tags was substituted with *_tag_source config options #146
