Create the following for each model:

* GraphQL object type for the model in `graphql/types.py` (subclass the appropriate class from `netbox.graphql.types`)
* Add a GraphQL filter for the model in `graphql/filters.py`
* Extend the query class for the app in `graphql/schema.py` with the individual object and object list fields
Also extend the schema class defined in `graphql/schema.py` with the individual object and object list fields per the established convention.

## Filtering
The GraphQL API employs the same filtering logic as the UI and REST API. Filters can be specified as key-value pairs within parentheses immediately following the query name. For example, the following will return only sites within the North Carolina region with a status of active:
!!! note "Changed in NetBox v4.3"
The filtering syntax fo the GraphQL API has changed substantially in NetBox v4.3.
Filters can be specified as key-value pairs within parentheses immediately following the query name. For example, the following will return only active sites:
```
query {
site_list(filters: {region: "us-nc", status: "active"}) {
site_list(
filters: {
status: STATUS_ACTIVE
}
) {
name
}
}
```
In addition, filtering can be done on list of related objects as shown in the following query:
Filters can be combined with logical operators, such as `OR` and `NOT`. For example, the following will return every site that is planned _or_ assigned to a tenant named Foo:
```
{
query {
site_list(
filters: {
status: STATUS_PLANNED,
OR: {
tenant: {
name: {
exact: "Foo"
}
}
}
}
) {
name
}
}
```
Filtering can also be applied to related objects. For example, the following query will return only enabled interfaces for each device:
```
query {
device_list {
id
name

# Filters & Filter Sets
Filter sets define the mechanisms available for filtering or searching through a set of objects in NetBox. For instance, sites can be filtered by their parent region or group, status, facility ID, and so on. The same filter set is used consistently for a model whether the request is made via the UI, REST API, or GraphQL API. NetBox employs the [django-filters2](https://django-tables2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) library to define filter sets.
