Hi,
I think you are almost there.
You almost certainly don't want to have 'with_items' on your template
call. This will try to template once for each item in "{{parameters}}".
But "{{parameters}}" is already a list of things, and is going to be
available to use in the template as a list, so I think you just need to
make your template like this
{% item for in parameters %}
{ item.sitename }}-test,{{ item.sitename }} description
{% endfor %}
That should loop through "{{parameters}}" and put each templated item onto
a new line I think (not tested).
Hope this helps,
Jon
