OK, finally figured it out. Used with_nested and was able to print both
items:
- name: Show results
ansible.builtin.debug:
msg: "{{ item[0] }} - {{ item[1] }}"
with_nested:
- "{{ result.results | json_query('[*].item') }}"
- "{{ result.results |
json_query('[*].ovirt_snapshots[*].description') }}"
Thanks,
Harry
