Getting (automatic) updates for Circuit Maintenance

Open deku-m opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

First of all thanks for the plugin.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Its more like a question and also a request at the same time. I wonder how the circuit updates are performed, is this by adding it yourself? Or is it also possible to look in emailbox/website or something, which would be the perfect solutions. That it then can update it automatically. Not sure if this is even possible.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to grab it somewhere from a email box. With certain tags that it then can add the information.

Describe alternatives you've considered Havent yet only doing it by hand.

Additional context As described above.

@deku-m The intention of the plugin was to separate the logic of automatically parsing notifications from carriers due to the varying methods of doing that.

Personally, I use AWS SES & Lambda to automatically parse notifications using networktocode/circuit-maintenance-parser and pass them to the plugin via the Netbox API.

Interessting, do you might know how this might be working with for example Office 365. Would be great if its written in the docs eventually?

Documentation for using SES to automatically parse maintenance notifications is now available. As I release more parser examples the docs will be updated here https://jasonyates.github.io/netbox-circuitmaintenance/parsers/
