Hi guys,
I am running an ansible playbook that supposed to return an apllication ID that I am having some issue; here the playbook

- action: shell curl --basic -u admin:admin -F file=/etc/ansible/playbooks/ms3-samples.zip -F name=ms3-samples -F version=2.0 --header "Content-Type:multipart/form-data" "http://52.73.56.141:8080/mmc-console-3.6.2/api/repository"
register: upload
- debug: var=upload

After running here is the result:

This task will run on the host and not the control machine.

So in your case the file need to be on the host
ip-172-31-61-191.ec2.internal, I'm guessing that's not the case and the
file is on you control machine.

If the file is on the control machine you'll need to run the task on the
localhost,
two ways to achieve that depending on the coding style you like.

- local_action: shell curl --basic -u admin:admin -F

file=/etc/ansible/playbooks/ms3-samples.zip -F name=ms3-samples -F
version=2.0 --header "Content-Type:multipart/form-data"
"http://52.73.56.141:8080/mmc-console-3.6.2/api/repository"
register: upload

or

- shell: curl --basic -u admin:admin -F

file=/etc/ansible/playbooks/ms3-samples.zip -F name=ms3-samples -F
version=2.0 --header "Content-Type:multipart/form-data"
"http://52.73.56.141:8080/mmc-console-3.6.2/api/repository"
register: upload
