Hello Team,

I am iterating register result using debug and loop but it prints other variable result as well how to ignore that one while printing value which I want Below is the sample results. Cloud you please help me on this issues. I just want to print value of “item.invocation.module\_args.volume\_id” and ignore other results.

- debug:  
msg: “{{ item.invocation.module\_args.volume\_id }}”  
register: unused\_block  
with\_items: “{{result\_1.results}}”  
when: item.volume\_attachments | length == 0

debug result
