Back with another question 
Summary
Executing infra.controller_configuration.filetree_create does not produce extra_vars that are attached to nodes in a workflow. For example, I have a workflow node which has this var passed in extra_vars in the gui:
(in code)
inv_update_action: create-group
When using ansible.controller.export, these extra_vars are exported as extra_data and within the node (excerpt):
assets:
workflow_job_templates:
- allow_simultaneous: false
ask_inventory_on_launch: false
ask_labels_on_launch: false
ask_limit_on_launch: false
ask_scm_branch_on_launch: false
...
workflow_nodes:
- all_parents_must_converge: false
diff_mode: null
execution_environment: null
extra_data:
inv_update_action: create-group
forks: null
identifier: d3a1d05c-00a7-46ef-b825-5634c2c8a9fb
inventory: null
job_slice_count: null
...
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
---
- name: Export content from AAP as CasC files
hosts: localhost
connection: local
gather_facts: false
vars:
controller_username: "{{ vault_controller_username | default(lookup('env', 'CONTROLLER_USERNAME')) }}"
controller_password: "{{ vault_controller_password | default(lookup('env', 'CONTROLLER_PASSWORD')) }}"
controller_hostname: "{{ vault_controller_hostname | default(lookup('env', 'CONTROLLER_HOST')) }}"
controller_validate_certs: "{{ vault_controller_validate_certs | default(lookup('env', 'CONTROLLER_VERIFY_SSL')) }}"
pre_tasks:
- name: "Setup authentication (block)"
no_log: "{{ controller_configuration_filetree_create_secure_logging | default('false') }}"
tags:
- always
block:
- name: "Get the Authentication Token for the future requests"
when: controller_oauthtoken is not defined
ansible.builtin.uri:
url: "https://{{ controller_hostname }}/api/v2/tokens/"
user: "{{ controller_username }}"
password: "{{ controller_password }}"
method: POST
force_basic_auth: true
validate_certs: "{{ controller_validate_certs }}"
status_code: 201
register: authtoken_res
- name: "Set the oauth token to be used since now"
ansible.builtin.set_fact:
controller_oauthtoken: "{{ authtoken_res.json.token }}"
controller_oauthtoken_url: "{{ authtoken_res.json.url }}"
roles:
- role: infra.controller_configuration.filetree_create
vars:
organization_filter: "<Org Name>"
post_tasks:
- name: "Delete the Authentication Token used"
ansible.builtin.uri:
url: "https://{{ controller_hostname }}{{ controller_oauthtoken_url }}"
user: "{{ controller_username }}"
password: "{{ controller_password }}"
method: DELETE
force_basic_auth: true
validate_certs: "{{ controller_validate_certs }}"
status_code: 204
when: controller_oauthtoken_url is defined
