Additional information

Adding the arg --check to the task template seems to work but --tags does not. Running the playbook from the commands line with --tags works as expected.

Hey,

it's working for me with the Arg "-t users".

[m-vandeneede]

Same issue here, using -t works but I would also like to use --skip-tags

[rbh1981]

Agree. The old style of specifying additional args as json array seemed to work without issue. The new UI for specifying additional args seems limited.

Hi all, thank you! Fix be fixed soon.

What if try --tags=users? Or you should use 2 items --tags, users.

Thanks for the tip. Separating args for '--tags' and tag name does work as expected. I guess it is just a misunderstanding on how args need to be used in the UI?

Screenshot shows working tags as recommended:

I can confirm that --tags=users also works.

Hi @fiftin, do you have an ETA for fixing this? Once fixed, it'll unlock wonderful things for us... at the moment we have to duplicate dozens of playbooks...! Thanks

I can confirm that --skip-tags and as individual entries just works as if executed in CLI. This probably needs to be communicated more exactly.
