AWX playbook failing with "network os cisco.iosxr.iosxr is not supported"

Question

I have a playbook that works just great locally, when trying to run with AWX I run into an errors that seem to indicate the device type in the task is not supported.

Loading collection ansible.netcommon from /runner/requirements_collections/ansible_collections/ansible/netcommon
Loading callback plugin awx_display of type stdout, v2.0 from /usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ansible_runner/callbacks/awx_display.py
Skipping callback 'awx_display', as we already have a stdout callback.
Skipping callback 'default', as we already have a stdout callback.
Skipping callback 'minimal', as we already have a stdout callback.
Skipping callback 'oneline', as we already have a stdout callback.

Thanks to @sivel in #ansible irc for the answer!

I think the AWX EEs only have ansible-core by default, you need cisco.iosxr in that list

Turns out I needed to add a line to collections/requirements.yml

- ansible.netcommon
- cisco.iosxr
