Hi I’m new here and have been doing some ansible. I need to register an instance to a target group and ansible is great as it has a module for it. However, nothing I do works. The funny thing is that the module reference page for it doesn’t even exist anymore. Does that just mean the module is no longer supported and explains why I can’t get it to ever work?

Below is the link to it.

Thank you in advance

What version of Ansible are you using?

Looking at the Git repo sources for the module (it's definitively  
there), it has been marked as being added in version 2.4 of Ansible -  
which is not yet released.

So... You would probably need to wait until it gets released, or make a  
local copy of it available to your playbooks (which, of course, you  
need to remember to remove etc - after testing - once 2.4 comes out 🙂

Best regards
