Hi Team,

I am new on AWX and Ansible, when run the following playbook using the AWX i get a Authentication Failed message, however when i run it on the Ansible it goes through. Can someone shed some light on this, what i am missing. I am using Machine credentials on the AWX for the following on the AWX. When i run it with Ansible i have a cred.yml file is include.

AWX:1.0.6.15 (its on docker, se linux)  
Ansible: 2.5.4
