I work on role for administrate an elastic cluster.

When i execute this :

- name: Get Statistic of index  
uri:  
url: “{{ update\_index }}”  
method: GET  
body: “”  
body\_format: json  
register: result\_stats  
when: index\_ is defined and index

- debug:  
msg: “{{ index\_ }}”

- debug:  
msg: “{{ result\_stats.json }}”

I have this response :

TASK [elastic\_search\_create\_index : Get Statistic of index] \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*

“version”: {  
“created”: “7130399”  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}

I would like get the value of number\_of\_replicas

but when i test :

- debug:  
msg: “{{ result\_stats.json.{{ index\_ }} }}”

I have an error, how can I do that ?

thanks
