ACI Sync Job fails with TypeError: 'str' object is not callable

[kingfetty]

Environment

• Python version: 3.10.12
• Nautobot version: 2.2.7
• nautobot-ssot version: 2.6.1

Expected Behavior

Expected to synchronize data from ACI fabric to NB instance

Observed Behavior

Running the job connects to the ACI APIC and starts to pull data, upon reaching the load_devices code errors with the below stack trace:

`Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/nautobot/lib/python3.10/site-packages/diffsync/store/init.py", line 155, in get_or_instantiate obj = self.get(model=model, identifier=ids) File "/opt/nautobot/lib/python3.10/site-packages/diffsync/store/local.py", line 49, in get raise ObjectNotFound(f"{modelname} {uid} not present in {str(self)}") diffsync.exceptions.ObjectNotFound: device_type N9K-C93180YC-FX3__ not present in LocalStore

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Steps to Reproduce

Create nautobot install Ensure SSOT[ACI] is installed and properly loaded with correct environmental variables Enable sync job Execute sync job against controller.

Suspected Cause

Within the plugin code for the ACI adapter load_devices() is calling self.get_or_instantiate() passing a string in of "device_type" for the model argument. Further in the code, diffsync is attempting to execute whatever this argument is as a method. Given that string types are not callable it throws the error. I suspect that get_or_instantiate is being called with incorrect argument as the "model" argument.
