Using ignore_errors : yes in loop

[Rahul Kumar]

Hi Dick and Ansible gurus,

I want to continue to other items of loop even if any of the item is failed in loop(probably we did not define that item and because of that - item failed, in that case it should continue to remaining items). How can we use ignore_errors:yes which applies to all items in loop.

Below is snippet :

 name: Application Configuration
  uri:
    url: http://{{ my_ip | default(ansible_fqdn) }}:{{8080 + (instance_id | int -1)*100}}/my-config/rest/{{item.resource}}
    body_format: json
    method: PUT
    body: "{{item.name}}"
    user: "{{ app_user }}"
    password: "{{ api_password }}"
    force_basic_auth: true
    follow_redirects: all
  with_items:
    - { name: '{{item1cfg}}', resource: 'item1' }
    - { name: '{{item2cfg}}', resource: 'item2' }
    - { name: '{{item3cfg}}', resource: 'item3' }
  when: item1cfg is defined or item2cfg is defined or item3cfg is defined
  ignore_errors: yes

This doesn't make much sense to me ... you should know which items exists.

But try failed_when: ... this will be applied for every item in the loop.
