Description
An Ansible Role to update a list of projects on Ansible Controller.
Requirements
ansible-galaxy collection install -r tests/collections/requirements.yml to be installed Currently: awx.awx or ansible.controller
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. | |
controller_projects | see below | yes | Data structure describing the project to update Described below. Alias: projects |
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 project update task does not include sensitive information. controller_configuration_project_update_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_project_update_secure_logging | False | no | Whether or not to include the sensitive Project 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 | 60 | no | This variable sets the number of retries to attempt for the role globally. |
controller_configuration_project_update_async_retries | 60 | no | This variable sets the number of retries to attempt for the role. |
aap_configuration_async_delay | 10 | no | This sets the delay between retries for the role globally. |
controller_configuration_project_update_async_delay | 10 | 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_project_update_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/. |

| Variable Name | Default Value | Required | Type | Description |
name | ”” | yes | str | The name or id of the project to update. |
organization | ”” | no | str | Organization the project exists in. Used for lookup only. |
wait | ”” | no | str | Wait for the project to complete. |
interval | controller_configuration_project_update_async_delay | no | str | The interval to request an update from controller. |
timeout | ”” | no | str | If waiting for the job to complete this will abort after this amount of seconds. |
