Development Parameters

DEBUG

Default: False

This setting enables debugging. Debugging should be enabled only during development or troubleshooting. Note that only clients which access NetBox from a recognized internal IP address will see debugging tools in the user interface.

Warning

Never enable debugging on a production system, as it can expose sensitive data to unauthenticated users and impose a substantial performance penalty.

DEVELOPER

Default: False

This parameter serves as a safeguard to prevent some potentially dangerous behavior, such as generating new database schema migrations. Additionally, enabling this setting disables the debug warning banner in the UI. Set this to True only if you are actively developing the NetBox code base.
