Скачать или смотреть 100 Days of Nautobot – Day 3 | Using Django ORM in Nautobot Shell

Welcome to Day 3 of the 100 Days of Nautobot series!
In today’s challenge, we explore how to use the Nautobot shell with the Django ORM (Object-Relational Mapping). This is one of the most powerful tools available to developers working with Nautobot Jobs.

Instead of writing raw SQL queries, Django ORM lets us interact with the database using Python objects—sites, circuits, IP addresses, and more. This makes code simpler, safer, and easier to maintain.
