Ansible Iterate Over List Template

The capability to process a data collection within Ansible templates provides a mechanism for dynamically generating configuration files or documents based on variable data.

It enables the creation of numerous, similar configuration sections with minimal code duplication, promoting consistency and reducing the risk of errors. It facilitates tailoring configurations to specific hosts or applications based on the data within the collection.
