Steps to Reproduce

Use a task with the mac address module:

    - name: Create MAC address with assignation to the host and interface
      netbox.netbox.netbox_mac_address:
        netbox_url: "{{ netbox_url }}"
        netbox_token: "{{ netbox_token }}"
        data:
          mac_address: "00:11:22:33:44:55"
          assigned_object:
            device: "host01"
            name: "eth0"
        query_params:
          - assigned_object_type

Expected Behavior

Netbox would set or return the mac address

Observed Behavior

An error message is returned: "{\"assigned_object_type\":[\"Select a valid choice. That choice is not one of the available choices.\"

This choice seems to be valid.
When setting a wrong choice in the query_params (test_choice in this exemple) the module returns a list of valid choices:
One or more of the kwargs provided are invalid for mac_address, provided kwargs: assigned_object, assigned_object_id, assigned_object_type, mac_address. Acceptable kwargs: test_choice.

Note that acceptable kwargs and provided kwargs are inverted.

[chaeynz]

could you explain why you need query_params here?

[tortue-ipsos]

I'm using query_params to differentiate interface having the same name on a virtual machine and a device.
