I need populate dictionary ad_results with
ad_fullname.results.item: ad_fullname.results.stdout
when ad_fullname.results.stdout is not define
the problem is
when I try to debug
I keep getting error
- name: debug ad_fullname
debug:
var: ad_fullname.results.item
I keep getting this error
"ad_fullname.results.item": "VARIABLE IS NOT DEFINED!"

Answer 1

As its name implies, and your example text shows, .results is a list and thus has no such property item; you are looking for:
- name: debug ad_fullname
debug:
msg: '{{ ad_fullname.results | map(attribute="item") | list }}'
