OK, I think I have it:
- name: Show results
ansible.builtin.debug:
msg: "{{ item }}"
loop:
- "{{ result.results |
json_query('[*].ovirt_snapshots[*].description') }}"
This gives me what I want, to a point. I would like to print the VM name
too, and that is at result.results[*].item. Any ideas on how I can adde
that?
Thanks,
Harry
