Hi all,

I’m a newbie to ansible and awx.  
gather\_facts is able to collect facts about the hosts. Running it on cli gives me the output that I want. But running the playbook via AWX is not writing the facts into the host field for the facts.

Am I thinking wrong or shouldn’t be the facts saved in the host facts field?

TIA
