Question

How do I see all the inventory variables defined for my host? This was a question asked to me in an interview and I didn't know the answer. A little help would be helpful. Thank you :)

Answer 1

Hey @Junaid, You can see all the inventory variables defined for the host by running the following command:

ansible-inventory --list --yaml

This would not work if you're using a fact cache. In such a case you need to use a play that gathers facts first and then lists the inventory variables.
