@amititre331 Hi !

Can you try the API request by hand (without ansible) to see if it works ?

Also, do you have any errors when running ansible ?

@amititre331
If you want to configure ip settings using cloud-init you have to use the option network_config instead of cloud_config.

}

By the way, do not share your tokens on the internet

network_config

Hi Thanks for your suggestion I will try with network_config Instead of cloud_config then will let you know what will be the response.

@olivierlambert Hi Thanks for understanding and your response.

@carloum70 Hello Carloum Do you have tested sample for the same so I can get the reference.

I am using terraform to setup a VM but it's the same approach for cloud-init:
cloud_config

#cloud-config
preserve_hostname: false
hostname: ${hostname} 
create_hostname_file: true
users:
  - name: ansible
    groups:
      - sudo
    sudo:
      - ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
    shell: /bin/bash
    ssh_authorized_keys:
      - "ssh-ed25519 somekeyl"
      - "ssh-ed25519 otherkey"

network_config:

#cloud-config
network:
  version: 1
  config:
    - type: physical
      name: enX0
      subnets:
        - type: static
          address: ${ip_address}
          netmask: ${netmask}
          gateway: ${gateway}
          dns_nameservers:
%{ for dns_server in dns ~}
            - ${dns_server}
%{ endfor ~}

Maybe a silly question: Your template supports cloud-init ?

[amititre331]

@carloum70 yes the OS Image i am using ubuntu and ubuntu by default support cloud init. and in playbook I write the code no where it fails when I run the playbook. that means the cloud init code is fine but there is some issue at os image side or template side

[carloum70]

What is the output of the following command:

cloud-init schema --system
