Hi Kai,

Yes, I can see the directory starting with {u'dest': u'  and in this 
directory i could see xyz.txt file, exact patch is as :  {u'dest': 
u'/u01/app/xyz.txt

Since I wish to put this file at /u01/app ( destination folder specified in 
variables.yml) and my main playbook which is fetchfile.yml is not doing it, 
please suggest where I am doing wrong in here.

Thank you.
Abdul
