Hi@Shashi,

Ansible has one module named ec2. This is a module that is used to connect AWS using the Ansible-Playbook. I have attached one playbook below for your reference.

- hosts: localhost
  tasks:
  - name: AWS OS provisioning
    ec2:
      key_name: keymlops
      instance_type: t2.micro
      image: <Replace with Ubuntu AMI>
      wait: yes
      region: ap-south-1
      group_id: sg-01a7d863
      count: 1
      vpc_subnet_id: subnet-51167d1d
      assign_public_ip: yes
      aws_access_key:
      aws_secret_key:
