Hi@akhtar,

You need to use the yum_repository module in your ansible-playbook. This is used to configure yum in the managed nodes. You can add the below-given lines in your playbook.

- hosts: all
  tasks:
  - name: Add multiple repositories into the same file (1/2)
    yum_repository:
      name: docker
      description: EPEL YUM repo
      file: docker_repo
      baseurl: https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/7/x86_64/stable/
