Hi@akhtar,

You need to use the copy module in your Ansible command. It allows you to copy files to a remote node. You can use the below command.

[root@localhost ~]# ansible all -m copy -a "src=home.html dest=/var/www/html/"
192.168.0.179 | CHANGED => {
    "ansible_facts": {
        "discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/libexec/platform-python"
    },
    "changed": true,
    "checksum": "6b788f3f7b8c05352bccc93a67cc13d92f9a7618",
    "dest": "/var/www/html/home.html",
    "gid": 0,
    "group": "root",

}
