How to create Custom facts on Windows servers
Talk title
Ansible on Windows! Create and collect custom facts from Windows servers using PowerShell.
Talk Description
With Windows being a massive growth area for Ansible, this talk will show you how to collect standard facts and create entirely new custom facts on remote windows servers. Custom facts allow us to target very specific server conditions in our Ansible Playbooks. Either store them locally to discover valuable information about your estate, or use them in your playbooks as conditionals to run specific tasks. Creating custom facts on Windows is a great tool to add to your Ansible Armoury, and it's not as hard as you think to get started.

It's only me but I'm happy to buy a round of drinks.
Dennis, Thanks. We will have Chocolatey presenting on 14th December, so maybe we can get this lined up for Jan/Feb?
FYI, we are hoping to have a larger Ansible presence at cfgmgmtcamp first week of Feb 2023
No worries! I'm always happy to talk about Ansible and the things I find useful. Jan/Feb would be perfect.
