Full Changelog: v3.2.0...v3.3.0

Release v3.2.0 - 2024-10-21

Release Overview

• There have been two new integrations added to the project!

  1. Bootstrap SSoT: The Bootstrap integration allows users to quickly and consistently setup NAutobot environments with base objects like Locations, LocationTypes, Tenants, VLANs and more. This integration, when linked to a Git repository with the requisite data will sync the provided objects, represented in YAML, and will synchronize these objects into Nautobot. Using this integration users can update multiple Nautobot instances with the same data, or easily test and promote changes through a pipeline. Users can also use Bootstrap to spin up local development environments with the base information needed to create test devices to develop new apps for Nautobot.

  2. Cisco Meraki SSoT: The Cisco Meraki integration allows users to import Networks, Devices, Ports, Prefixes, and IP Addresses from the Meraki Dashboard. Refer to the integration documentation for a full explanation of all capabilities and options for the integration.

• The DNA Center and Device42 integrations have been updated to allow specifying the LocationType for imported Location objects.
