Hi,

I would like to share that i managed to collect inventory information with only minor changes in ansible playbook.

sharing just to help other people who new learner like me.

# write facts in inventory

- name: write the inventory in into file  
copy:  
content: |  
MGMT\_IP;HOSTNAME;MODEL;VERSION;IMAGE;  
{% for host in ansible\_play\_hosts %}  
{{ hostvars[host].inventory\_hostname}};{{ hostvars[host].facts\_output.ansible\_facts.ansible\_net\_hostname }};{{ hostvars[host].facts\_output.ansible\_facts.ansible\_net\_model }};{{ hostvars[host].facts\_output.ansible\_facts.ansible\_net\_version }};{{ hostvars[host].facts\_output.ansible\_facts.ansible\_net\_image }}  
{% endfor %}

dest: /etc/ansible/facts/systems.csv  
backup: yes

output will look like below after minor changes in excel.
