In AWX’s ad\_hoc\_command, I can run commands in posix machines using `shell` or `command` module.  
But both `win_shell` and `win_command` are not available in AWX’s ad\_hoc\_command.  
How do I run a command in windows target using ad hoc command?

Never mind, I’ve found that there’s a whitelist in Settings → Jobs
