Hi,
when I use regex_search in my playbook, then I get this error message:

task [Output to file] **********************************************************
#fatal: [R34-N5696Q-1]: FAILED! => {“msg”: “Unexpected templating type error occurred on ({{ out.std
#regex_search(‘100’) #}}): expected string or buffer”}…ignoring

  • name: “Read Sub-Config”
    nxos_command:
    provider:
    timeout: 20
    commands:

  • “{{ c }}{{ subName }}”
    register: out

  • name: “Output to file”
    no_log: false
    vars:
    outsql: “{{ out | b64encode }}”
    cCmdsql: “{{ c }}{{ subName }}”
    sqlRecord: “{{ s }}-{{ subName | regex_replace(‘interface ‘,’’,ignorecase=True) }},{{ s }},”
    sqlVLAN: “{{ out.stdout | regex_search(‘100’) }}”
    lineinfile:
    path: ‘{{ p }}’
    line: ‘{{sqlRecord}}{{ sqlVLAN }}’
    create: no
    ignore_errors: true

When change "regex_search(‘100’) to regex_replace(‘100’,‘9999’), that works fine.
sqlVLAN: “{{ out.stdout | regex_search(‘100’) }}”
(‘100’ ist a excample, late I will search a number with ‘\d+’)

What is my problem? Can you help me?
