• netbox_device_interfaces

Hi,

I am trying this data source and having some issues i think due to some limitation of the maximum items it can output?

For instance if i just have something like this:

data "netbox_device_interfaces" "device_interfaces" {
}

The output of this data source doesn't include some interfaces that I know for sure exist in netbox.
If i try to limit the data source with a filter:

data "netbox_device_interfaces" "device_interfaces" {
  filter {
    name  = "device_id"
    value = "9"
  }
}

They appear correctly.
The issue is that I wanted to have all the interfaces in all devices in this data source. Is this possible or are we hitting some limitations in the maximum items allowed either in this netbox provider or terraform itself?

Thanks a lot
BR

I added the limit attribute to that data source in 3.8.4.
This way, you can manually increase the amount of items the data source returns or set it to 0 to remove the limit or set it up to MAX_PAGE_SIZE (default: 1000).
Returning more than MAX_PAGE_SIZE results is not something the provider can do right now, because it would then have handle pagination, which it currently does not.

You did not mention how many results you got in your incomplete data source responses, I assume it probably was 50, which seems to be the default limit as per the link above.
