unicode object has no attribute

I am trying to understand the error message “ERROR! ‘unicode object’ has no attribute ‘subnets’”

As shown as an example at https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/ec2_vpc_subnet_facts_module.html

My Code:

— # EC2 VPC

  • hosts: localhost

vars:
aws_access_key: “{{ aws.aws_access_key }}”
aws_secret_key: “{{ aws.aws_secret_key }}”
cidr_block: 10.250.0.0/24
vpc_name: Testing
region: us-west-2
vpc_id: vpc-b8599ade

connection: local
gather_facts: no
vars_files:

  • group_vars/account.yml

tasks:

  • name: Get Subnet Facts
    ec2_vpc_subnet_facts:
    aws_access_key: “{{ aws_access_key }}”
    aws_secret_key: “{{ aws_secret_key }}”
    region: “{{ region }}”
    filters:
    vpc-id: “{{ vpc_id }}”
    register: subnet_facts

  • set_fact:
    subnet_ids: “{{ subnet_facts|map(attribute=‘subnets.0.id’)|list }}”

The results:

steven@playbooks$ ansible-playbook myplay.yml
