      community.aws.ecs_service_info:
        cluster: "{{ CLUSTER }}"
        service: "{{ SERVICE }}"
        details: true
      register: service

    - name: get taskdefinition info
      community.aws.ecs_taskdefinition_info:
        task_definition: "{{ service.services[0].taskDefinition }}"
