content
required |
|
Declaration of tenants configured on the system.
This parameter is most often used along with the file or template lookup plugins. Refer to the examples section for correct usage.
For anything advanced or with formatting consider using the template lookup.
This can additionally be used for specifying application service configurations directly in YAML, however that is not an encouraged practice and, if used at all, should only be used for the absolute smallest of configurations to prevent your Playbooks from becoming too large.
If you content includes encrypted values (such as ciphertexts, passphrases, etc), the returned changed value will always be true.
|
force
bool |
|
Force updates a declaration.
This parameter should be used in cases where your declaration includes items that are encrypted or in cases (such as WAF Policies) where you want a large reload to take place.
