Device authentication via nautobot failed

[PuntaTacco]

I am trying to configure the Golden Configuration in Nautobot and I am having trouble performing backups of the devices. When I attempt to perform the backup, I receive the following errors:

E1005: There was no username (redacted) preemptively failed.
BACKUP CONFIG failed: Subtask: TEST CONNECTIVITY (failed)

The configuration I am using in my plugin is as follows:

PLUGINS = ["nautobot_plugin_nornir", "nautobot_golden_config"]

PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
"nautobot_plugin_nornir": {
"nornir_settings": {
"credentials": "nautobot_plugin_nornir.plugins.credentials.settings_vars.CredentialsSettingsVars",
"runner": {
"plugin": "threaded",
"options": {
"num_workers": 20,
},
},
"username": "xxxx",
"password": "yyyy",
"secret": "yyyy",
},
},

Could you please instruct me on what is needed to correct the error?

See here: https://docs.nautobot.com/projects/plugin-nornir/en/latest/user/faq/ and specifically Expected 2 from the question What is the difference between nautobot_plugin_nornir and nornir_settings? Why not just flatten?

Hello @itdependsnetworks, thank you for the feedback!

I made the suggested change, and now it looks like this:

PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
"nautobot_plugin_nornir": {
"nornir_settings": {
"credentials": "nautobot_plugin_nornir.plugins.credentials.settings_vars.CredentialsSettingsVars",
},
"username": "xxxx",
"password": "yyyy",
"secret": "yyyy",
}
},

However, now it returns the error:

Cmd('git') failed due to: exit code(128) cmdline: git fetch -v -- origin stderr: 'fatal: could not read Password (redacted) (redacted)@github.com': terminal prompts disabled'

Do you have any suggestions regarding this?
