Hi Team,

Need your help got stuck

I want to use host vars from inventory for all host under a specific group

I tried with the below example but only getting IP when I am passing hostname not getting anything when trying to get ansbile\_host variable value for all host under that group with the group name

ip: “{{hostvars[‘test’][‘ansible\_host’]}}” ------Not working

ip: “{{hostvars[‘test1’][‘ansible\_host’]}}” -------- Working

[test]  
test1 ansible\_host=1.1.1.1  
test2 ansible\_host=2.2.2.2

Hello,

This doesn’t look like its a supported way, you can use index of one and access but not full group:

Is this what you’re looking for?  
$ **cat groupvars-inventory.ini**  
[test]  
test1 ansible\_host=1.1.1.1  
test2 ansible\_host=2.2.2.2

[dev]  
dev1 ansible\_host=3.3.3.3  
dev2 ansible\_host=4.4.4.4

$ **cat groupvars.yml**
