@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 ?

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.

@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 ?

@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

What is the output of the following command:

cloud-init schema --system
