Hello Dick, Thanks for your response.
I am trying to perform installation on I server (Microstrategy component) and binaries along with shell script should be available in bit bucket repository. Ansible should be able to pull that tar file and unzip it. After this it should be able to trigger the shell script and for this script it needs some parameters to be passed. I have seen in documentation that we can pass these parameters in play book it self however that will be hard coding directly in the playbook, hence I was thinking to read it from file and pass it to shell script. Let me know if you need any further details to this. Appreciate your inputs on this.
