Hi Dieye,

Looks like you selected create_user.yml tasks file instead of user_group.yml playbook. Select user_group.yml playbook in the AWX Job Template and re-run the JT to see if it helps.

The fmgr_generic module is not part of the Ansible distribution. Setup requires you to apply patches to ansible to get it working. Documentation for their module indicates they recommend using their FortiManager Ansible Collection instead. Documentation on how to use the modules in their collection is available through that link.

Documentation for using collections with Tower and AWX is available here: Collections Support.

Documentation on using collections in Ansible is available here: Using Collections. You could install the collection directly into your project repository, but you may want to consider using the requirements method documented on that page.

If you must use the fmgr_generic module, you will want to create a custom virtual environment and patch that instance of ansible. Setting up virtual environments varies depending on how you deploy AWX, docker, kubernetes, OpenShift, etc… For information on using virtualenv with Tower and AWX, look here: Using virtualenv with Ansible Tower. You should also look at the docs in the AWX repository on GitHub, specifically, here: custom_virtualenvs.md.
