Hi all.  
for evaluating purposes I want to integrate ansible with AWX. I ve installed AWX but not sure how to configure my ansible env with AWX in order to see all the ansible playbook/run/issue etc etc.  
Is there something I need to add on ansible.cfg?

Cheers

What do you mean integrate ansible with AWX? they are together already. I think you should look at the documentation to understand how it works. Although this documents say tower, its the same with AWX [https://docs.ansible.com/](https://docs.ansible.com/)

thanks Jonathan. What I mean is, without running playbooks from awx but running ansible either from a CLI or jenkins, I d like to see the reports on AWX of those runnings. Basically, at least for now, using AWX as graphic report.  
Is is possible?

Cheers

You won’t be able to see the reports or output from the UI if you don’t run it from the UI.

You could still use AWX but work with its API instead of WebUI ( [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/towerapi/api\_ref.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/towerapi/api_ref.html) ) from Jenkins or whatever you want.

There is also API client that could make API usage easier - [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/towerapi/tower\_cli.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/towerapi/tower_cli.html)

Hi Jonathan,  
I am using AWX on my day to day basis. Where can I fnd documentation or how to guides (or) best practice on Dynamic Inventories and Dynamic Variables. These advanced topics are very crucial on my project. Requesting your thoughts here.

Thanks

best regards  
VJ
