100 Days of Nautobot – Day 6 | Job Hooks & Job Buttons

Описание: Welcome to Day 6 of the 100 Days of Nautobot series!
Today’s challenge is all about Job Hooks—a concept inspired by webhooks. With job hooks, we can automatically trigger Nautobot jobs when specific changes occur in the database, sending API calls and automating workflows instantly.

We’ll also cover Job Buttons, which allow you to launch jobs directly from the object’s page in Nautobot, instead of always going through the Jobs UI. This makes automation faster, context-aware, and user-friendly.
