Infrastructure as Code for Ansible Automation Platform Setup #

Introduction #

Setting up Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) manually through the web interface is tedious and highly prone to errors.

I’ve written an Ansible playbook that completely automates the setup of my AAP environment, from credentials and projects to job templates and workflow orchestration. So in case I ever need to rebuild the environment from scratch, all I would need to do is just add the project where that playbook is stored, and add a single template by hand and run it. I’d do it that way because I don’t like running ansible playbooks from the CLI, I always, always use AAP!
