Ansible runs an implicit loop for all the devices. If you access a variable
in the 'regular' way you can only see variabels/facts set for the current
device. Variables/facts set for other devices (that the loop already ran
through) can be accessed via the 'hostvars' variable.
If you know that you want the IP of the first host in the group you might
try something like this (not tested):
- set fact:
my_IP: "{{
hostvars[hostvars[hostvars.keys()[0]]['groups']['webservers'][0]]['ansible_facts']['ansible_default_ipv4']['address]
}}"
how this (should) work:
hostvars.keys()[0] - gets you the name of the first device in the inventory
(for this play), all devices share group info
['groups']['webservers'][0] - gets you the name of the first host in that
group
so this turns in to
hostvars['10.10.10.1']['ansible_facts']['ansible_default_ipv4']['address']
which should contain the info you're after.
There are probably some simpler ways of achieving that as well.
kind regards
