Sorry i have simplified too much my example.
Here is the whole thing:

inputs_with_escaped_quotes.json :

{

    "inputs": {

        "value": "this is a \" escaped quoted \"  \" string \"  yeah..."

    }

}

 

 

Tasks :

Escaped_quotes.yml :

---

- name: escaped quotes set_fact

  set_fact:

    jsoncode: "{{ lookup('template', 'template_with_escaped_quotes.j2') }}"

 

- name: Save file

  local_action:

    module: copy

    content: "{{ jsoncode }}"

    dest: "{{ role_path }}/files/output.json"

 

 

Templates  template_with_escaped_quotes.j2:

{

    "result_value": "{{ inputs.value }}"

}

 

 

 

Json result : output.json :

{

    "result_value": "this is a " escaped quoted "  " string "  yeah..."

}
