Use parameters stored in aws parameter store in ansible playbook

Question

I have a few parameters stored in AWS parameter store. Now how do I use those parameters in my ansible playbook?

Answer 1

Use aws_ssm module for this purpose:

- name: example
  rabbitmq_user:
    user: "{{ lookup('aws_ssm', 'user', region='us-east-1') }}"
    password: "{{ lookup('aws_ssm', 'password', region='us-east-1') }}
    state: present
    force: yes
  become: yes
  become_method: sudo
  become_user: root
  register: example
  notify:
    - restart rabbitmq-server
