Hi Kai,
Thanks for your reaction.
I think item.path won't work because of the structure of result.files.
result.files contains a list [..path..], [.path..] ,So in the debug var i
should reference item[0].path , item[1].path
I worked my way around creating a list
# create a list of policies to be defined
- name: create list of files
debug:
msg: "{{ result.files | map(attribute='path') | list }}"
register: fileList
