Variables

Variable Name	Default Value	Required	Description	Example
`platform_state`	“present”	no	The state all objects will take unless overridden by object default	‘absent’
`aap_hostname`	””	yes	URL to the Ansible Automation Platform Server.	127.0.0.1
`aap_validate_certs`	`true`	no	Whether or not to validate the Ansible Automation Platform Server’s SSL certificate.
`aap_username`	””	no	Admin User on the Ansible Automation Platform Server. Either username / password or oauthtoken need to be specified.
`aap_password`	””	no	Platform Admin User’s password on the Server. This should be stored in an Ansible Vault at vars/platform-secrets.yml or elsewhere and called from a parent playbook.
`aap_token`	””	no	Controller Admin User’s token on the Ansible Automation Platform Server. This should be stored in an Ansible Vault at or elsewhere and called from a parent playbook. Either username / password or oauthtoken need to be specified.
`aap_request_timeout`	`10`	no	Specify the timeout in seconds Ansible should use in requests to the Ansible Automation Platform host.
`aap_organizations`	`see below`	yes	Data structure describing your organization or organizations Described below. Alias: organizations
`assign_galaxy_credentials_to_org`	`true`	no	Boolean to indicate whether credentials should be assigned or not. It should be noted that credentials must exist before adding it. The dispatch role will set this to `false`, before re-running the role with it set to `true`.
`assign_default_ee_to_org`	`true`	no	Boolean to indicate whether default execution environment should be assigned or not. It should be noted that execution environment must exist before adding it. The dispatch role will set this to `false`, before re-running the role with it set to `true`.
`assign_notification_templates_to_org`	`true`	no	Boolean to indicate whether notification templates should be assigned or not. It should be noted that the templates must exist before adding them. The dispatch role will set this to `false`, before re-running the role with it set to `true`.

Enforcing defaults

The following Variables compliment each other. If Both variables are not set, enforcing default values is not done. Enabling these variables enforce default values on options that are optional in the controller API. This should be enabled to enforce configuration and prevent configuration drift. It is recomended to be enabled, however it is not enforced by default.

Enabling this will enforce configurtion without specifying every option in the configuration files.

‘controller_configuration_organizations_enforce_defaults’ defaults to the value of ‘aap_configuration_enforce_defaults’ if it is not explicitly called. This allows for enforced defaults to be toggled for the entire suite of controller configuration roles with a single variable, or for the user to selectively use it.

Variable Name	Default Value	Required	Description
`controller_configuration_organizations_enforce_defaults`	`false`	no	Whether or not to enforce default option values on only the applications role
`aap_configuration_enforce_defaults`	`false`	no	This variable enables enforced default values as well, but is shared across multiple roles, see above.

Secure Logging Variables

The following Variables compliment each other. If Both variables are not set, secure logging defaults to false. The role defaults to false as normally the add organization task does not include sensitive information. controller_configuration_organizations_secure_logging defaults to the value of aap_configuration_secure_logging if it is not explicitly called. This allows for secure logging to be toggled for the entire suite of configuration roles with a single variable, or for the user to selectively use it.

Variable Name	Default Value	Required	Description
`controller_configuration_organizations_secure_logging`	`false`	no	Whether or not to include the sensitive Organization role tasks in the log. Set this value to `true` if you will be providing your sensitive values from elsewhere.
`aap_configuration_secure_logging`	`false`	no	This variable enables secure logging as well, but is shared across multiple roles, see above.

Asynchronous Retry Variables

The following Variables set asynchronous retries for the role. If neither of the retries or delay or retries are set, they will default to their respective defaults. This allows for all items to be created, then checked that the task finishes successfully. This also speeds up the overall role.

Variable Name	Default Value	Required	Description
`aap_configuration_async_retries`	30	no	This variable sets the number of retries to attempt for the role globally.
`controller_configuration_organizations_async_retries`	``	no	This variable sets the number of retries to attempt for the role.
`aap_configuration_async_delay`	1	no	This sets the delay between retries for the role globally.
`controller_configuration_organizations_async_delay`	`aap_configuration_async_delay`	no	This sets the delay between retries for the role.
`aap_configuration_loop_delay`	0	no	This sets the pause between each item in the loop for the roles globally. To help when API is getting overloaded.
`controller_configuration_organizations_loop_delay`	`aap_configuration_loop_delay`	no	This sets the pause between each item in the loop for the role. To help when API is getting overloaded.
`aap_configuration_async_dir`	`null`	no	Sets the directory to write the results file for async tasks. The default value is set to `null` which uses the Ansible Default of `/root/.ansible_async/`.

Organization Data Structure

This role accepts two data models. A simple straightforward easy to maintain model, and another based on the controller api. The 2nd one is more complicated and includes more detail, and is compatible with controller import/export.

`name`	””	yes	str	Name of Organization
`new_name`	””	no	str	New name of Organization
`description`	`false`	no	str	Description of of Organization.
`custom_virtualenv`	””	no	str	Local absolute file path containing a custom Python virtualenv to use.
`max_hosts`	””	no	int	The max hosts allowed in this organization.
`instance_groups`	””	no	list	list of Instance Groups for this Organization to run on.
