Hello,

Given the data below I would like to create a single task that will print the url or the filename without having to specify the hardware (PowerEdge\_xxxxx) or the firmware (bios, idrac, etc.).

Any ideas would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,  
Hank

Something like:

`- name: Print firmfware info`  
`debug: msg="item0 {{ item.0 }} item1 {{ item.1.url }}"`  
`with_indexed_items: "{{firmware}}"`

> 

OR:

`- name: Print firmfware info`  
`debug: msg="item0 {{ item.0 }} item1 {{ item.1.url }}"`  
`with_dict: "{{firmware}}"`

`---`

Hello,

I realized late yesterday that I asked this question in the wrong group. I should have asked in ansible-project. I apologize for cluttering up this group and will go ask my question there.

Thanks,  
Hank
