I put together a short video (\<1 minute) that covers Ansible Facts (with a network automation focus) and then creating Dynamic Documentation around this. Here is the video:

You can find the source code online at [GitHub - network-automation/toolkit: Ansible Content Collection for common network functions like dynamic documentation](https://github.com/network-automation/toolkit) and I even created an interactive lab you can try out [here](https://play.instruqt.com/embed/redhat/tracks/network-lab-2?token=em_N9LMfM_v5Ufl6GKy)

Would love any feedback / questions 🙂

The “ **Tower** Workshop”? … 🤔

Also, it seems something went sideways because the instructions in the workshop don’t work
