Testing for existence means (in ansible terms) that you check if they're defined. If you just want to make sure they're defined, you could use the assert module: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/assert_module.html ansible.builtin.assert: that: - script_var1 is defined - script_var2 is defined etc You say "separate task.yml file" - but what you have is not a task file but a playbook. If you want to have the assert task in another file, then you should create that and then import that in your main playbook. For example: - tasks: - import_tasks: separate.yml -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ansible Project" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to ansible-project+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/ansible-project/1e7a8869-6360-4396-95e6-cd6f078dcd24n%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/ansible-project/1e7a8869-6360-4396-95e6-cd6f078dcd24n%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
