Hi,

set\_fact in with\_dict append loop only keeps last item . Is there any way to keep the whole list in the set\_fact.

- name: Print records  
set\_fact:  
imp\_records: “/home/ansible/{{ item.key }}/{{ item.value.version.split(‘\_’)[1] }}/{{ item.value.file\_name }}”  
when: item.key == ‘imp’  
with\_dict: “{{ somevalue }}”

append loops only keeps the last item.

Is there any way we can whole list in the set\_fact
