Is the "assemble" module documentation incorrect?

Hi,

Please keep in mind I’m new to ansible.

I tried to use the assemble module on a windows target box via WinRM.

The following documentation indicates that this is support on windows. (“This module is also supported for Windows targets”)
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/assemble_module.html

[WARNING]: No python interpreters found for host myservername.mydom.org(tried [‘/usr/bin/python’, ‘python3.7’, ‘python3.6’, ‘python3.5’, ‘python2.7’, ‘python2.6’,
‘/usr/libexec/platform-python’, ‘/usr/bin/python3’, ‘python’])

Could someone please clarify is the documentation incorrect, or am I missing something.

I found documentation for a previous version (v2.3) , that indicates that perhaps this is not directly supported on windows.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Cheers

It is indeed incorrect, there is no win_assemble.ps1 module so it will not work on Windows. I’ve created a PR to remove this mistake https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/59082.

Thanks
