When creating a new child host group, all fields except Content view, Lifecycle environment and Content Source are taken as “inherent Paren(Name-of-Content)”. In the corresponding fields, the three are taken as actual names insteed of for examle as lifecycle environment “inherent Parent(production)” .

If you choose the right entries and enable inheritance and get the host group with the following API command, you will not get “Contentview_id” in the output or you will get “Null”:

[root@foreman-server.local.yt ~]# curl --insecure --connect-timeout 180 --silent --user admin:atix --header 'Accept:application/json,version=2;charset=utf-8' --header Content-Type:application/json -X GET [https://foreman-server.local.yt/api/hostgroups/39]

Steps to Reproduce the problem:

Create a child hostgroup and select parent hostgroup.

All fields of the parent host group will be taken over but instead of “inherit Parent (Name-of-Content view)” directly “Name-of-Content view” will be taken.

Same as above for content source and lifecycle environment.

Actual results:

All fields of the parent host group will be taken over but instead of “inherit Parent (Name-of-Content view)”, directly “Name-of-Content view” will be taken. The issue is the same for content source and lifecycle environment.

Furthermore, if you select “inherit Parent (Name-of-Content view)” under Content view, it is not inherited.

If you call the following api command:

[root@foreman-server.local.yt ~]# curl --insecure --connect-timeout 180 --silent --user User:Passwd --header 'Accept:application/json,version=2;charset=utf-8' --header Content-Type:application/json -X GET [https://foreman-server.local.yt/api/hostgroups/39]

Expected results:

If you select “inherit Parent (Name-of-Content view)” under Content view, it should take over. The issue is the same for content source and lifecycle environment.
