I tried with this trivial playbook, and it worked fine: - hosts: localhost vars: myhosts: [apple, banana, cherry] tasks: - debug: var=myhosts - add_host: name={{ item }} groups=mygroup with_items: myhosts - debug: var=groups['mygroup'] I got TASK: [debug var=groups['mygroup']] ******************************************* ok: [localhost] => { "var": { "groups['mygroup']": [ "apple", "banana", "cherry" ] } } as expected. Ansible 1.9.4 if it matters. Does it work for you if you try a case like this that isn't ec2.instances? If so, maybe there's something about the way ec2.instances is structured that isn't what you expect, like it's a dict of lists of dicts of dicts of lists rather than a list of dicts of dicts of lists, or something. :^) -Josh (j...@care.com) (apologies for the automatic corporate disclaimer that follows) This email is intended for the person(s) to whom it is addressed and may contain information that is PRIVILEGED or CONFIDENTIAL.
