Hi Federico, can you show an example of your playbook? Boto is required where the module is run, so if you’re using “local\_action” or “hosts: localhost” you’ll need boto installed from where you’re running Ansible. However, if you’re running the module on a remote host, you’ll need to have boto installed there instead.

Hope that helps!
