The error is telling you exactly what the problem is. You need to work out what might be causing that problem.

In this case, a list object does not have an attribute called (in Unicode) ‘0’.

Your loop uses values from a sequence, and the first in the sequence is ‘0’. This is used to dereference the variable result.results (as in, result.results[item]…).

I’m guessing that result.results is an empty list, OR maybe you should cast item to be an integer:

{{ result.results[item |int].container.Config.Hostname }}

One option would be to output result in a debug statement before you try to use it, so you can look at its structure and then dereference it properly.

BTW this is guesswork. I haven’t read any doco or tested any of the above.
