+Playbook Keywords

+=================

-Here we list the common playbook objects and their directives.

-Note that not all directives affect the object itself and might just be there to be inherited by other contained objects.

-Aliases for the directives are not reflected here, nor are mutable ones, for example `action` in task can be substituted by the name of any module plugin.

+These are the keywords available on common playbook objects.

+

+.. note:: Please note:

+

+    * Aliases for the directives are not reflected here, nor are mutable one. For example,

+      :term:`action` in task can be substituted by the name of any Ansible module.

+    * The keywords do not have ``version_added`` information at this time

+    * Some keywords set defaults for the objects inside of them rather than for the objects

+      themselves

-Be aware that this reflects the 'current development branch' and that the keywords do not have 'version_added' information.
