Hey Brian, Thanks for that, works like a charm.
I did notice there are a bunch of quoting issues going on, for instance: x: - y: b z: c - y: "{{ d }}" z: "{{ e }}" Works fine, where-as defining the structure as per my initial post the variable evaluation fails ( end up with {# x.item #} or group_id's that do not evaluate. Now I will say, the variables are defined in group_vars over a couple of different groups and are then passed in through a 'with_items' iterator in the actual role. Anyway, it's not a real problem since defining it as above works as expected. Thanks again for your suggestion!
