Hello @lanhnguyen, this module is designed to configure dpkg packages on Debian-based systems. Please check out the docs:

[https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/debconf\_module.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/debconf_module.html)

There are a few examples at the end of the documentation page. If you need a more explicit example, feel free to ask.

Cheers
