Thanks Todd, It works .
"Not sure what you're trying to do with subelements." - I want to avoid printing messages of other dict items ( asia) from vars during the execution (in the skipping), which prints some sensitive info on the screen. Turning on no_log is not helpful in registering the output. So , I was trying to call only the variables under n_america when I execute the task and i got it . However for now skipping shows the items from asia during the play .
