* Next, search our [issues list](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues?q=is%3Aissue) to see if the bug you've found has already been reported. If you come across a bug report that seems to match, please click "add a reaction" in the bottom left corner of the issue and add a thumbs up (:thumbsup:). This will help draw more attention to it. Any comments you can add to provide additional information or context would also be much appreciated.

Be sure to complete the entire report template, including detailed steps that someone triaging your issue can follow to confirm the reported behavior.

## :bulb: Feature Requests
* First, check the GitHub [issues list](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues?q=is%3Aissue) to see if the feature you have in mind has already been proposed. If you happen to find an open feature request that matches your idea, click "add a reaction" in the top right corner of the issue and add a thumbs up (:thumbsup:). This ensures that the issue has a better chance of receiving attention. Also feel free to add a comment with any additional justification for the feature.

* Please don't submit duplicate issues! Sometimes we reject feature requests, for various reasons. Even if you disagree with those reasons, please **do not** submit a duplicate feature request. It is very disrepectful of the maintainers' time, and you may be barred from opening future issues.
* If you have a rough idea that's not quite ready for formal submission yet, start a [GitHub discussion](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/discussions) instead. This is a great way to test the viability and narrow down the scope of a new feature prior to submitting a formal proposal, and can serve to generate interest in your idea from other community members.
