Ansible Automation Platform w/ exec env and ansible collection for netapp.

[frosty iris]

Hi,
I've posted a couple of times before trying netapp.ontap v21.xx to v22.xx getting the notorious "KeyError: 'volume'"
I'm running this code to delete snapshots.

--- play ---
- name: delete SnapShot
netapp.ontap.na_ontap_snapshot:
https: true
validate_certs: false
state: absent
snapshot: "MegaAccDB_Snap.*"
volume: "db_mega_acc"
vserver: "my-svm"
username: '{{ lookup("env", "ANSIBLE_NET_USERNAME") }}'
password: '{{ lookup("env", "ANSIBLE_NET_PASSWORD") }}'
hostname: mystorage.com
--- end ---

Yesterday I upgraded to 22.3.0 and this problem is now gone but another culprit is causing it to fail. Please view the attached file.
Any hints are greatly appreciated! thank you.

Please reply here or DM me if you need any additional information.

having * in snapshot name is the problem, module expecting one record but multiple records are returned

I found a workaround getting snapshots with na_ontap_rest_info and then loop through a list for delete

[nova kestrel]

yes, this will fetch snapshot list and using loops on snapshot will modify all snapshots or we can delete all.

`- name: Gather snapshot with regex
  na_ontap_rest_info:
    gather_subset:
      - storage/volumes/snapshots
    parameters:
      name: policy-vserver*
    owning_resource:
      volume_name: db_mega_acc
      svm_name: my-svm
  register: result

- debug: var=result

- name: create snapshot list
  set_fact:
    snapshot_list: "{{ snapshot_list|default([]) + [item.name] }}"
  loop: "{{ result['ontap_info']['storage/volumes/snapshots']['records'] }}"

- debug: var=snapshot_list

- name: modify SnapShot
  na_ontap_snapshot:
    https: true
    validate_certs: false
    state: present
    snapshot: "{{ item }}"
    volume: "db_mega_acc"
    vserver: "my-svm"
  loop: "{{ snapshot_list }}"`

Please excuse my n00b questions. I've used the code above and it executes but the list is empty, no snapshots. I assume this is because the code is utilising the rest functionality (my code wasn't).
If so I need to get that working.

And again.

Thank you for the time and effort.
