Hi Thank you for your response. I didn't realize that the variable stays persistent when the host the play is running against is the same. So when I registered the instance type as a variable to localhost, then I changed the hosts to run the tasks against the remote host, and then when I go back to hosts: localhost, I am able to use the variable I used to hold the instance_id, and in that way I can do what I wanted.
