Trouble with expect: passing creds

[Jeff Rogers]

I'm getting the following error:

...... "msg": "argument responses is of type <type 'list'> and we were unable to convert to dict"

I'm trying to do this.

- name: Name of the thing I'm doing
hosts: '{{ target }}'
serial: 1
vars_prompt:
- name: "UserName"
prompt: "User Name "
private: yes

- name: "UserPWD"
prompt: "Password "
private: yes

- expect:
echo: yes
command: /use/bin/mybinary argument
responses:
- 'Username': "{{ UserName }}"
- 'Password': "{{ UserPWD }}"

Your `responses` argument needs to be a hash/dict, not an array/list:

- expect:

    echo: yes

    command: /use/bin/mybinary argument

    responses:

      'Username': "{{ UserName }}"

      'Password': "{{ UserPWD }}"

The only change above is removing the `- ` from before each question/answer.

Excellent, that fixed it, thank you. I can't seem to get a become: / become_user: to work in the -expect task now. Had to pass it in as a global.
