@dennopro Thank you for taking the time to report this problem! It is known from your error message that an unknown variable caused the error. Can you provide your playbook for me to try? Thank you very much!

Hello Fred, I managed to fix this by renaming the resource group declared variable in the playbook form "{{resource_group}}"" to "resource_group" this was in the play book vm_create_windows.yml and this worked out well, thanx for the followup regards Andrew
