Ansible Executor

This task allows you to integrate with Ansible from an AppViewX workflow. The Ansible executor task is used when there is a need for automating network configurations through Ansible as the southbound. This task must be used when passing input data from AppViewX to Ansible and while executing the Ansible modules on a specific host.
  • Provision to input data in either YAML or JSON format
  • Provision to refer YAML or JSON samples
  • Provision to use the YAML task as either a user interface task or as a service task
  • Provision to select the ‘host’ on which to execute
Note: In the event of integrating with an existing Ansible setup, the host instance can be defined under AppViewX Menu > Settings > Integration > Ansible configuration. For more information, refer to the section on Ansible Vendor Configuration.
