escape single quotes

[Pravin V]

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to pass the numeric values of an variable into JSON.

- name: Device ID

  set_fact:

    "device_id": "{{ device_item_netbox.id }}"

- name: DEBUG - DEVICE ID

  debug: msg="{{ device_id }}"

Output - 

TASK [DEBUG - DEVICE ID] ********************************************************************************************************************************************

ok: [localhost] => 

  msg: '3483'

When I try to pass the same into JSON body-

- name: Create Interface - Netbox

  uri:

    url: "{{ netbox_url }}/api/dcim/interfaces/"

    return_content: yes

    method: POST

    validate_certs: false

    status_code: 200,201

    headers:

      Authorization: "Token {{ netbox_server_token }}"

    body_format: json

    body:

      {

        "device": "{{ device_id }}",

        "name": "GigabitEthernet0/0",

        "mac_address": "xxxxx231",

        "type": "10gbase-t",

        "enabled": "true",

        "description": "GigabitEthernet0/0"

      }

Verbose output -

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => changed=false 

  allow: GET, POST, HEAD, OPTIONS, TRACE

  api_version: '2.8'

  content: '{"non_field_errors":["The fields device, name must make a unique set."]}'

  content_length: '72'

  content_type: application/json

  elapsed: 0

  invocation:

    module_args:

      attributes: null

      body:

        description: GigabitEthernet0/0

        device: '3483'

        enabled: 'true'

        mac_address: xxxxx231

        name: GigabitEthernet0/0

        type: 10gbase-t

But when I add something with variables like below, it removes adding quotes -

    body:

      {

        "device": "{{ device_id }} m",

Verbose output -

   module_args:

      attributes: null

      body:

        description: GigabitEthernet0/0

        device: 3483 m

Please advise how can I fetch/pass only numeric digits without quotes.
