4.0.2 scripts can only be launched by api with ID and no longer with a name.

Deployment Type

Self-hosted

NetBox Version

v4.0.2

Python Version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

see #16123

In the past I could run the script with "https://netbox-test/api/extras/scripts/scriptA.class"
This does not work anymore and I need an ID ;(

Exception Value: | Field 'id' expected a number but got 'ProcessLogging'.

Expected Behavior

it works lik in 3.7.7

Observed Behavior

ValueError at /api/extras/scripts/ProcessLogging/

launching it with /api/extras/scripts/6/

Does work.

Thanks for reporting a problem you've encountered in NetBox.

Although the OpenAPI schema does not indicate that scripts can be invoked by name, the 4.0.2 docs do provide an example in that style, so this feels like a regression against a documented behavior.

Hi,

Most definitely a regression. Problem is that you cannot change the id so if you delete the script and add it again it gets a new id and then you have to change all your endpoints that use it.
