Parameters
Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
---|---|---|
auth_kind string / required |
| The type of credential used. |
description string | An optional description of this resource. | |
env_type string | Specifies which Ansible environment you're running this module within. This should not be set unless you know what you're doing. This only alters the User Agent string for any API requests. | |
name string / required | Name of the resource. Provided by the client when the resource is created. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression `[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?` which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash. | |
project string | The Google Cloud Platform project to use. | |
scopes list | Array of scopes to be used. | |
service_account_contents jsonarg | The contents of a Service Account JSON file, either in a dictionary or as a JSON string that represents it. | |
service_account_email string | An optional service account email address if machineaccount is selected and the user does not wish to use the default email. | |
service_account_file path | The path of a Service Account JSON file if serviceaccount is selected as type. | |
state string |
| Whether the given object should exist in GCP |
url_map dictionary / required | A reference to the UrlMap resource that defines the mapping from URL to the BackendService. This field represents a link to a UrlMap resource in GCP. It can be specified in two ways. First, you can place a dictionary with key 'selfLink' and value of your resource's selfLink Alternatively, you can add `register: name-of-resource` to a gcp_compute_url_map task and then set this url_map field to "{{ name-of-resource }}" |
