Thanks for helping, it's much appreciated.
I now have:
tasks:
- name: create an ami in us-east-1
ec2_ami: wait=yes
aws_access_key={{ ec2_access_key }}
aws_secret_key={{ ec2_secret_key }}
instance_id={{ item }}
region={{ region1 }}
name=some-name
with_items: hostvars[inventory_hostname]['ansible_ec2_instance_id']
register: instance
- debug: var=instance.image_id
Which returns:
TASK: [create an ami in us-east-1]
********************************************
changed: [54.198.217.217] => (item=i-7c77c197)
TASK: [debug var=instance.image_id]
*******************************************
ok: [54.198.217.217] => {
"instance.image_id": "{{ instance.image_id }}"
}
instead of the actual image id.
