I am not able to recreate passing a result of one playbook to another in a workflow using the set\_stats module in the example shown [here.](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/userguide/workflows.html#extra-variables)

The second playbook use\_set\_stats.yml always throws an error saying the variable is undefined. The use\_set\_stats.yml playbook is run after the invoke\_set\_stats.yml runs successfully in the workflow.

This is the debug of invoke\_set\_stats.yml -

`

{  
“changed”: false,  
“ansible\_stats”: {  
“aggregate”: true,  
“data”: {  
“integration\_results\_url”: “[https://file.io/XjUc23](https://file.io/XjUc23)”  
},  
“per\_host”: false  
},  
“\_ansible\_no\_log”: false

`

This is the debug of use\_set\_stats.yml -

`

{  
“msg”: “The task includes an option with an undefined variable. The error was: ‘integration\_results\_url’ is undefined\n\nThe error appears to have been in ‘/var/lib/awx/projects/\_25\_\_set\_stats/use\_set.yml’: line 4, column 7, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n tasks:\n - name: "Get test results from the web"\n ^ here\n\nexception type: \<class ‘ansible.errors.AnsibleUndefinedVariable’\>\nexception: ‘integration\_results\_url’ is undefined”  
}

`

What am I missing here?

Hi Pranav,

Has it worked. I am facing the same issue ? The documented example as well as my modified worflow template playbooks are not working for this set\_stats module.

Vinod

There was a race condition between when the next job in a workflow runs and the results of the previous job, with the saved set\_stats. This is now fixed in the most current release (1.0.4) of awx.
