Hi,

I am using ansible AWX for issuing REST calls for calling playbook. Playbook connects to downstream servers and provisions storage using underlying storage API’s and registers o/p of rest call. My requirement is to get back a o/p of rest call as a part of job status call, however i am not able to do that as of now. Here is test playbook.

Hi Punit,

You can try this below API query.  
api/v2/jobs/55/job\_events/?task=Your\_task\_name.

In your code you have to display the results of that particular variable in the task " Your\_task\_name "  
and the API query will print the results in json format, then you have to dig in a bit to see your custom result.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks and Regards  
Mani Mohan
