Hi,

from the output I can only guess. My first guess would be a proxy configuration in your environment or a misconfigured web server in front of NetBox. You can try to run it with -l DEBUG3 and see what is logged to the CLI.

Hi,
Proxy is configured correctly.
I have deleted all Interfaces from NetBox portal and script executed successfully. Issue resolved.
Thanks

Hi,
Issue resolved when interfaces deleted from NetBox. When I run script again it showing same error message. can you please help me to fix it.
Thanks

Hey, not sure what is happening here. Can you try to query this manually and see what returns?

[srilaxmiwas]

If I search https://netbox:443/api/virtualization/interfaces/?](https://netbox/api/virtualization/interfaces/? until here, I am getting all interfaces info from NetBox

[bb-Ricardo]

And if you use curl on the command line?

[srilaxmiwas]

After I deleted all interfaces from NetBox and execute script for vcenter's (excluding Network vcenter), it is working fine. when I run Network vcenter sync script then getting above error.

[srilaxmiwas]

When I run curl command it is showing below output
curl -X GET -k -H "Authorization: Token secret" -H "Accept: application/json; indent=4" https://netboxip:443/api/virtualization/interfaces/

Hi,

I have 2*Network Vcenters in one environment which causing sync issues to NetBox. Other environment vcenter's are syncing fine. After executing Network vCenter sync script it is not working.

Thanks
