Hi, Thank you for your response,

I have a command to check the status of abinitio service in target 
machines. But, the status command will only work if the env file is 
executed. 

The env file contain some environment variables like below. The variables 
numbers and value will change for one target machine to another. 

export AB_HOME=/et/dev/abinitio/abinitio-V3
export PATH=${AB_HOME}/bin:${PATH}

I tried to execute the env file present in the target machine by sourcing 
the env file and I tried to register the output to get what are all the 
variables present in the file in-order to use them in my next task, which 
is to check the status. But,  I am able to see my register variable is 
empty.  I just want to execute the environment file and to run the status 
command with that executed environment. Below is the playbook I have used,

- hosts: dev
  gather_facts: false
  tasks:   
    - name: get the environment variables
      shell: "su <id> & . ./.env" #this command is to execute the env file and 
store the result
      args:
        chdir: /path to the file
      register: output1 #for storing exported variables.

    - debug: var=output1.stdout_lines  #print exported variables (Here I am not 
getting anything the stdout is empty)

          - name: check status
            shell: "su <id> & <status checking command>" #command to check 
status
            environment: "{{output1.stdout_lines}}" #setting the 
environment in which th above status command need to run
            register: output2
      
          - debug: var=output2.stdout_lines
