How to add $ sign at end of share name

[timber matrix]

Hello,

I need to add a dollar sign at the end of some share names at creation.

I tried :

• to add the $ at the end of the share name but the Netapp module refuses it
• use the browsable attribute which is only supported starting at ontap 9.13.1, which is not yet deployed on our DC

I've used below playbook :

• name: share | create | create share with dict
  netapp.ontap.na_ontap_cifs:
  state: present
  share_name: "{{ __share_name }} "
  browsable: "{{ __share_browsable }}"
  path: "{{ _nas_path }}"
  #use_rest: always
  vserver: "vs{{ target }}"
  hostname: "{{ nas_hostname }}"
  username: "{{ nas_username }}"
  password: "{{ nas_password }}"
  https: true
  validate_certs: false

What's wrong with my attempt ?

Using collection 22.6.0 with Ontap 9.11.1

In YAML $ is a special character. you need to escape it

replace it with \$ should work
