I have a playbook in which I want to create a random password and use it 
later to connect to a windows box over WinRM

I've generated a random password like this:
  - name: Generate a temporary random password for new host
    set_fact: 
      randopass: 
"{{ lookup('password', '/dev/null length=15 chars=ascii_letters') }}"

I set the admin password with vmware_guest os customization:
      customization:
        password: '{{ randopass }}'
        timezone: 004

Then - I'm trying to use:
- hosts: 'hostname.internal.domain.com'
  connection: winrm
  port: 5985
  remote_user: Administrator
  remote_pass: '{{ randopass }}'
  gather_facts: yes

I've tried "remote_password, remote_pass, ansible_pass, ansible_password" 
and I get an error message like this:

ERROR! 'remote_pass' is not a valid attribute for a Play


What can I use for this part of the play to connect as a different 
user/password?

I'm using ansible tower if it matters
