title: NetBox: Change log
agents: netbox
catalog: app/netbox

distribution: check_mk
description:
 Reports how many change records NetBox created within the configured time
 window (24 hours by default), the total number of retained change records, and
 how long ago the most recent change was.

 This serves two purposes: lower levels on the change count catch "nobody
 maintains this NetBox any more", which turns the documentation stale without
 anything ever breaking; upper levels catch runaway automation writing to NetBox
 in a loop. Both are unset by default - set them once you know your instance's
 normal rate. Levels are configurable via the rule "NetBox change log".

 The endpoint moved from {/api/extras/object-changes/} to
 {/api/core/object-changes/} in NetBox 4.1; the agent tries both and reports
 which one it used.

discovery:
 One service per host when change-log monitoring is enabled (the default).
