I was just checking out Tower, looks awesome.  
Is it possible to have “parameterized” tasks?

Things like:

Set up a new web server with server\_name=[enter server name]  
(freetext)

SSL [x]  
(boolean)

Type [Apache | Nginx]  
(choices)

Hi nick,

Yes, you can edit variables on a per task basis (in fact the upcoming release even highlights syntax of the JSON/YAML), but there’s not a Q&A mode just yet – it’s a feature I’d really like to add in the future though, so you just edit the job template before you press the button.

In the future, I wanted to point out Tower questions should go here: [https://ansibleworks.zendesk.com/home](https://ansibleworks.zendesk.com/home)

(This mailing list is for the core project)

Thanks!
