Hello
I have 2 json files:
*File Json1 *
{
"name": "",
"description": "",
"spec": [
{
"question_name": "VM Name",
"question_description": "",
"required": true,
"type": "text",
"variable": "VM_Name",
"min": 0,
"max": 1024,
"default": "",
"choices": "",
"new_question": true
},
{
"question_name": "Select a Veeam Backup Job",
"question_description": "",
"required": true,
"type": "multiplechoice",
"variable": "Job_Name",
"min": null,
"max": null,
"default": "",
"choices":
}
]
}
*File Json2*
“Jobs_List_Data”:["JOB-1" , "JOB-2","JOB-3", "JOB-4"]
I'm stuck in modifying the File Json1 with error:

The final json file should be like this
*Final Json: *
{
"name": "",
"description": "",
"spec": [

"question_name": "VM Name",
"question_description": "",
"required": true,

"min": null,
"max": null,
"default": "",
* "choices": ["JOB-1" , "JOB-2", "JOB-3", "JOB-4"]*
}
]
}
Here is my code:
- hosts: localhost
tasks:
- name: load json file
include_vars:
file: surveyjobs.json
name: json1
- debug:
var: json1
- name: load json file
include_vars:
file: Jobs_list.json
name: json2
- debug:
var: json2
- json_modify:
data: "{{json1}}"
pointer: "/spec/2/choices/"
action: update
update: "{{ json2 }}"
register: result
- debug:
var: result.result
Thanks for your help !
