- hosts: windows
remote_user: admin
tasks:
- name: rest api
win_uri:
url: http://example.com
method: GET
register: json_ouput
Your register is indented to far, it must be on the same level as name and win_uri.
- name: copying the content to a file
copy: content="{{ json_ooutput}}" dest=/path/to/destination/file_name
copy is for linux, win_copy is for Windows.
And if you check the documentation under return values for win_uri
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.4/win_uri_module.html#return-values
you see that the output will be in json_ouput.content or json_ouput.json depending on the use of the module and the return of the server.
You can always use this to see the content.
- debug: var=json_ouput
