[Bug]: Cannot set primary IP of a device if the ip address exists in multiple VRFs

[xibriz]

Ansible NetBox Collection version

3.21.0

Ansible version

ansible [core 2.17.11]
  python version = 3.10.12 (main, May 27 2025, 17:12:29) [GCC 11.4.0] (/usr/bin/python3)
  jinja version = 3.1.3
  libyaml = True

NetBox version

v4.0.9

Python version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create two VRFs
2. Create the same IP address (example 10.0.0.2), one in each VRF
3. Assign one of the IP addresses to a interface on a device
4. Set the primary ip of the device with the following code:

- name: Update device with primary ip
  netbox.netbox.netbox_device:
    netbox_url: URL
    netbox_token: TOKEN
    data:
      name: my_device
      primary_ip4: 10.0.0.2
    state: present

Expected Behavior

The IP address already assigned to a interface of the device should be set as the primary ip address.

Observed Behavior

fatal: [my_device]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "More than one result returned for primary_ip4"}

My current workaround is to just use the API:

- name: Update device with primary ip
  ansible.builtin.uri:
    url: "{{ base_url }}/api/dcim/devices/{{ device_id }}/"
    method: PATCH
    return_content: true
    headers:
      Content-Type: application/json
      Authorization: "Token {{ token }}"
    body_format: json
    body:
      primary_ip4:
        id: "{{ ip_address.id }}"
