loop help

[Tony Wong]

can i get assistance with creating a loop for creating both A and B side. 

- name: "Configure Domain VLAN Policy A"

vars:

api_info: &api_info

api_private_key: "{{ api_private_key }}"

api_key_id: "{{ api_key_id }}"

state: "{{ state | default(omit) }}"

cisco.intersight.intersight_rest_api:

<<: *api_info

query_params:

$filter: "Name eq '{{ name_of_vlan_domain_policy_A }}'"

api_body:

You've got to fix a couple of things first.

• You're re-registering domain_vlan_policy_A and domain_vlan_policy_B, which looks like a mistake to me. Are you using the same variable name because you know you won't need the old values again, or is that really an error? I'm asking because it may affect how you set up your loops.
• Your template is looping over vlan_configs_A / vlan_configs_B, but I don't see where those variables are being set.

Ignoring that, the basic idea is you'd put a loop: on an include_tasks: or import_tasks: tasks with a vars: section that sets the domain policy name and description, and do away with all the "_A" and "_B" in the included file's tasks. That included file would be basically what you posted, but with the issues above addressed.

- name: Include configure domain policy tasks
  ansible.builtin.include:
    file: what_you_posted_originally_almost.yml
  vars:
    domain_policy_name: "{{ item.name }}"
    domain_policy_desc: "{{ item.desc }}"
  loop:
    - {name: '{{ name_of_vlan_comain_policy_A }}',
       desc: '{{ description_of_vlan_domain_policy_A }}'}
    - {name: '{{ name_of_vlan_comain_policy_B }}',
       desc: '{{ description_of_vlan_domain_policy_B }}'}

That's nearly close enough to get you started I think.

Of course that should be "ansible.builtin.include_tasks:", not "ansible.builtin.include:".
