I have a playbook with bunch of tasks, I am running that playbook on jenkins and all my tasks are working fine. I just don’t want all the output to be seen on the screen except the debug msg. Hoc can I achieve this. TASK [Save Repo Names to File] \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* changed: [localhost] TASK [Filter Repo Names] \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* ok: [localhost] TASK [Debug Job Info] \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* ok: [localhost] =\> { “repos\_list”: [“repo1”] } I just need only this TASK [when jenkins job is created] \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* ok: [localhost] =\> (item={‘project’: ‘itapps’, ‘repo’: ‘repo1’, ‘scmUrl’: ‘[https://github.com](https://github.tesla.com/)’}) =\> { “msg”: “{ Job doesn’t exist on any of the jenkins so Created the job on [https://\ } \n” } ---
