Hello,
I’m having some trouble getting proxy authentication to work in Ansible. I have a simple playbook I’m using to test with the uri module and a remote REST API service.
- hosts: localhost
connection: localhost
vars:
proxy_env:
http_proxy: http://user:p%40ss@proxy.corporate.com
https_proxy: http://user:p%40ss@proxy.corporate.com
remote_url: https://my.remotesite.com/api/v1
api_id: 1234
api_key: 1234-5678
tasks: - debug: msg=“Testing {{ proxy_env }}”
- uri: url={{ remote_url }}
method=POST body=“api_id={{ api_id }}&api_key={{ api_key }}”
environment: proxy_env
And the result is always
failed: [localhost] => {“failed”: true, “parsed”: false}
Traceback (most recent call last):

The directions at http://docs.ansible.com/playbooks_environment.html are quite clear, so I’m not sure what is going on.
Have I defined something in my playbook incorrectly?
Does the uri module not respect proxy environment settings?
Thanks,
Jay
