  bigip_cfe_deploy:
    content: "{{ lookup('file', 'cfe_declaration.json') }}"
    service_type: "as3"

Inputs

    
content:
    description:
    - Declaration to be configured on the system.
    - This parameter is most often used along with the C(file) or C(template) lookup plugins.
      Refer to the examples section for correct usage.
    - For anything advanced or with formatting consider using the C(template) lookup.
    - This can additionally be used for specifying application service configurations
      directly in YAML, however that is not an encouraged practice and, if used at all,
      should only be used for the absolute smallest of configurations to prevent your
      Playbooks from becoming too large.
    - If you C(content) includes encrypted values (such as ciphertexts, passphrases, etc),
      the returned C(changed) value will always be true.
    - If you are using the C(to_nice_json) filter, it will cause this module to fail because
      the purpose of that filter is to format the JSON to be human-readable and this process
      includes inserting "extra characters that break JSON validators.
