In the previous blog posts, we have covered how to create resources on Microsoft Azure with Ansible, and this post will show you how to retrieve information from Azure with Ansible.

Info

Sometimes you might need to retrieve information from Azure without using the portal or CLI. This post will show how to display resource group information and all the resources that are in the resource group with Ansible.
