ansible 2.6.0 (devel da5cf72236) last updated 2018/02/14 14:29:49 (GMT +200)

The task seems obvious at first glance but it appears to be difficult to 
implement in this context.
The string is:
host_meta: "<XRD xmlns='http://docs.oasis-open.org/ns/xri/xrd-1.0'>\n    
<Link rel='restconf' href='/restconf'/>\n</XRD>"

I need to extract the values of rel and href into api_release and api_root.
I unsuccessfully tried the following:
- set_fact: api_release="{{ host_meta | regex_replace('^.* rel=(.*) .*$', 
'\\1') }}"
  when: host_meta is defined

- set_fact: api_root="{{ host_meta | regex_replace('^.* href=(.*)/>.*$', 
'\\1') }}"
  when: host_meta is defined

Both variables contain the whole string instead of the corresponding 
substring, which should be:
api_release: 'restconf'
api_root: /restconf

I have already successfully used this filter in other contexts. 
What am I missing here? Is the filter confused by the string?
