You need to configure the credential in Tower and apply it to your template.

In the credential settings you set the become user:

Good luck,

    Hi Nick,

    Here is an example of a working config, note the use of (hosts:
    all) in the playbook since the inventory will be managed by Tower:

    ---

    - hosts: all
      tasks:
        - name: Ping windows host
          ansible.windows.win_ping:
          register: ping_result

        - name: show ping result
          ansible.builtin.debug:
            var: ping_result

    Then in Tower create an inventory and add you connection
    variables, I suggest you try basic first the upgrade once you can
    establish a connection:

    Add your host to the inventory and select it when creating the job
    template.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards,
