Hy all,

I have this task :

- set\_fact:  
liste\_appli: “{{ item.split(‘,’)[3:] }}”  
with\_lines: cat /home/ansible/ssh\_manager/clef\_applicatives.csv  
when: (item.split(‘,’)[1] == ansible\_user) and (item.split(‘,’)[2] == inventory\_hostname)  
delegate\_to: localhost

And i have this task who count number of element in variable liste\_appli:

- set\_fact:  
long\_liste: “{{ liste\_appli | length }}”

But content of **long\_liste** is only one number, or i want that this variable content all indice of my variable **liste\_appli.**

Exemple :

**liste\_appli** = “valeur1”, “valeur2”, “valeur3”

**long\_liste** = [0,1,2]

Someone have idea ?

Thank you very much guy !!

Regards
