Notes

Note

  • There are only three top-level parameters where ‘method’ is always required while other two ‘params’ and ‘url_params’ can be optional

  • Due to the complexity of fortimanager api schema, the validation is done out of Ansible native parameter validation procedure.

  • The syntax of OPTIONS doen not comply with the standard Ansible argument specification, but with the structure of fortimanager API schema, we need a trivial transformation when we are filling the ansible playbook
