DESCRIPTION

Retrieves Devices objects from Netbox DCIM module. Supports automatic pagination with the -All switch.

By default, config_context is excluded from the response for performance. Use -IncludeConfigContext to include it when needed.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Get-NBDCIMDevice Returns the first page of devices (config_context excluded by default).

EXAMPLE 2

Get-NBDCIMDevice -All Returns all devices with automatic pagination.

EXAMPLE 3

Get-NBDCIMDevice -Brief Returns minimal device representations for dropdowns.

EXAMPLE 4

Get-NBDCIMDevice -Fields 'id','name','status','site.name' Returns only the specified fields.

EXAMPLE 5

Get-NBDCIMDevice -IncludeConfigContext Returns devices with config_context included.

EXAMPLE 6

Get-NBDCIMDevice -Omit 'comments','description' Returns devices without comments and description fields (Netbox 4.5+).

EXAMPLE 7

Get-NBDCIMDevice -All -PageSize 200 -Verbose Returns all devices with 200 items per request, showing progress.

PARAMETERS

-All

Automatically fetch all pages of results. Uses the API's pagination to retrieve all items across multiple requests.

```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases:

Required: False Position: Named Default value: False Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ```

-PageSize

Number of items per page when using -All. Default: 100. Range: 1-1000.

```yaml Type: Int32 Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases:

Required: False Position: Named Default value: 100 Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ```

-Brief

Return a minimal representation of objects (id, url, display, name only). Reduces response size by ~90%. Ideal for dropdowns and reference lists.

```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases:

Required: False Position: Named Default value: False Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ```

-Fields

Specify which fields to include in the response. Supports nested field selection (e.g., 'site.name', 'device_type.model').

```yaml Type: String[] Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases:

Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ```

-Omit

Specify which fields to exclude from the response. Requires Netbox 4.5.0 or later.

```yaml Type: String[] Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases:

Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ```

-IncludeConfigContext

Include config_context in the response. By default, config_context is excluded for performance (can be 10-100x faster without it).

Required: False Position: Named Default value: False Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ```
