Querying ACI configuration
..........................
A module can also be used to query a specific object.
..code-block:: yaml
- name: Query tenant customer-xyz
aci_tenant:
host: my-apic-1
username: admin
password: my-password
tenant: customer-xyz
state: query
Or query all objects.
..code-block:: yaml
- name: Query all tenants
aci_tenant:
host: my-apic-1
username: admin
password: my-password
state: query
register: all_tenants
After registering the return values of the `aci_tenant <aci_tenant>` task as shown above, you can access all tenant information from variable ``all_tenants``.
