All, I am not sure if I am approaching this in the right manner, but if I have the following yaml file, and I am using extlookup() to grab the data: --- erased_config: instances: - { id: 0, metrics_port: 20000, host_name: hsync00, mount_point: /, assign_new_users: false } - { id: 1, metrics_port: 20001, host_name: hsync01, mount_point: /, assign_new_users: false } Is there a way I can get each of those id lines into a separate file without having to iterate in the module?
