Hello! I’m currently evaluating the tool and it looks really promising and would be a huge help for is, if we could use it. I have done a first successfull import with a HPE Gen10 server, if i try to import a Supermicro server inventory i get: NetBox returned body: {'device': ['This field is required.']}

This happens to every inventory item thats supposed to be pushed. The log with DEBUG2 on shows:

2022-09-28 16:14:07,029 - INFO: Creating new NetBox 'inventory item' object 'Power Supply Bay 1 (232V AC)' with data: {'tags': [{'name': 'NetBox-synced'}, {'name': 'Source: my-redfish-example'}], 'discovered': True, 'custom_fields': {'firmware': 'REV1.2', 'health': 'OK', 'inventory_type': 'Power Supply', 'inventory_size': None, 'inventory_speed': None}, 'name': 'Power Supply Bay 1 (232V AC)', 'description': 'Model: PWS-741P-1R', 'serial': 'XXXX'}

The inventory file has the correct netbox-id it it:

[...]
    "meta": {
        "data_retrieval_issues": {
            "firmware": [
                "No firmware data returned for API URL '/redfish/v1/UpdateService': got 'Base.v1_0_0.OemLicenseNotPassed/have no license to access the resource' for API path '/redfish/v1/UpdateService'",
                "URL '/redfish/v1/UpdateService/FirmwareInventory' unavailable. Unable to retrieve firmware information."
            ],

        "start_of_data_collection": "2022-09-28T12:37:59+00:00"
    }

I have tried with the master branch version as well as development. Netbox is v3.2.7.

Help is much appreciated, I’d love to use this tool! Cheers and thank you!
