Hi all,
I have the below task which requires to call a rest API in order to call another API.
Basically i have a dict of portgroups which i will need to call an API to get the ID from. {{ portgroupID }}
Then run the below code.
I guess i could do it in a separate task, but then how do i link the ID with item.portgroup_name? Is there any easy way? provided that these are coming from different sources?
