boolean

Set to True to verify the Cisco DNA Center after applying the playbook config.

Choices:

dnac_api_task_timeout

string / required

The Cisco DNA Center hostname.

dnac_log

boolean

Flag to enable/disable playbook execution logging.

When true and dnac_log_file_path is provided, - Create the log file at the execution location with the specified name.

When true and dnac_log_file_path is not provided, - Create the log file at the execution location with the name 'dnac.log'.

When false, - Logging is disabled.

If the log file doesn't exist, - It is created in append or write mode based on the "dnac_log_append" flag.

If the log file exists, - It is overwritten or appended based on the "dnac_log_append" flag.

Notes

Note

  • SDK Method used are configuration_templates.ConfigurationTemplates.create_template, configuration_templates.ConfigurationTemplates.deletes_the_template, configuration_templates.ConfigurationTemplates.update_template, configuration_templates.ConfigurationTemplates.export_projects, configuration_templates.ConfigurationTemplates.export_templates, configuration_templates.ConfigurationTemplates.imports_the_projects_provided, configuration_templates.ConfigurationTemplates.imports_the_templates_provided,

  • Paths used are post /dna/intent/api/v1/template-programmer/project/{projectId}/template, delete /dna/intent/api/v1/template-programmer/template/{templateId}, put /dna/intent/api/v1/template-programmer/template, post /dna/intent/api/v1/template-programmer/project/name/exportprojects, post /dna/intent/api/v1/template-programmer/template/exporttemplates, post /dna/intent/api/v1/template-programmer/project/importprojects, post /dna/intent/api/v1/template-programmer/project/name/{projectName}/template/importtemplates,

  • Does not support check_mode

  • The plugin runs on the control node and does not use any ansible connection plugins, but instead the embedded connection manager from Cisco DNAC SDK

  • The parameters starting with dnac_ are used by the Cisco DNAC Python SDK to establish the connection
