Required Permissions

permission to fetch devices. If the user has not been assigned this permission (either directly or via a group assignment), NetBox will return a 403 (forbidden) HTTP response.""Internally, in NetBox, all actions granted by a permission (both built-in and custom) are stored as strings in an array field named
actions
