```

### The form questions:

##### Question 1 - NetBox URL:

Enter the URL of your NetBox instance (e.g. https://demo.netbox.dev):

This can be set as an environment variable

##### Question 2 - NetBox API Token: 

Enter your NetBox API Token - you can create / retrieve one from https://URL/user/api-tokens/

This can be set as an environment variable

##### Question 3 - NetBox API:

The NetBox API you want to transform.

You can use "?" to list all available APIs.

You can use "all" to transform all available APIs.

The list of currently available APIs:

aggregates
asns
cables
circuit-terminations
circuit-types
circuits
cluster-groups
cluster-types
clusters
console-port-templates
console-ports
contact-assignments
contact-groups
contact-roles
contacts
device-bay-templates
device-bays
device-roles
device-types
devices
front-port-templates
front-ports
groups
interface-templates
interfaces
inventory-items
ip-addresses
ip-ranges
locations
manufacturers
module-bay-templates
module-bays

roles
route-targets
service-templates
services
site-groups
sites
status
tenant-groups
tenants
tokens
users
virtual-chassis
virtual-interfaces
virtual-machines
vlan-groups

##### Question 4 - Filetype Filetype (none, json, yaml, html, csv, markdown, mindmap, mp3, all)[none]:

If you do not select a filetype the NetBox API JSON will print to the screen.

You can select "all" to transform the NetBox API into all available filetypes.

The MindMaps require the VS Code markmap extension to render them inside the IDE.

It is recommended to use Excel Preview VS Code extension to preview the CSV output files. 

Mindmap and MP3 generate 1 file-per result.
