PowerNetbox

PSGallery version Downloads GitHub stars

The comprehensive PowerShell module for the NetBox REST API - 530 cmdlets covering DCIM, IPAM, Virtualization, Circuits, Tenancy, VPN, Wireless, and the netbox-branching plugin.

Why PowerNetbox

  • 100% API coverage — every NetBox endpoint, every CRUD verb, including the netbox-branching plugin
  • Cross-platform — PowerShell 5.1 on Windows, PowerShell 7+ on Linux, macOS, and Windows
  • Built for scale — -Brief, -Fields, -Omit switches and pipeline-based bulk operations keep responses fast on NetBox instances with thousands of objects

# Connect (paste your NetBox API token when prompted)

Latest release

v4.6.3.0 - 2026-06-22

NetBox 4.6.3 compatibility, plus the dev work accumulated since v4.6.1.0 — case-insensitive filtering, VirtualMachine enhancements, contact/VLAN-group fixes, and a documentation/standards uplift.

NetBox 4.6.3 compatibility

  • Added the MU fiber connector types (mu, mu-pc, mu-upc, mu-apc) to the -Type ValidateSet on New-NBDCIMFrontPort / New-NBDCIMRearPort (NetBox #21666).
  • CI matrix bumped to NetBox 4.6.3 (matrix: 4.6.3 / 4.5.10 / 4.4.10 / 4.3.7); full integration matrix green on all four legs.
  • Verify-ValidateSetParity -NetboxVersion v4.6.3 reports zero drift. NetBox's removal of local_context_data from dcim.Module (#22357) does not affect PowerNetbox (the field was never exposed). Remaining 4.6.2/4.6.3 changes are UI / GraphQL / server-internal with no REST client impact.
