    Integrate Ansible with IDrive® e2

    Ansible is an open-source automation platform that simplifies IT operations across diverse environments. Integrating Ansible with IDrive® e2 enables you to automate provisioning and management of scalable, secure cloud object storage for backups, archiving, and application data.

    Prerequisites

    Before you begin, ensure the following:

    1. An active IDrive® e2 account. Sign up here if you do not have one.
    2. A bucket in IDrive® e2. See how to create a bucket.
    3. Valid Access Key ID and Secret Access Key. Learn how to create an access key.
    4. A valid Ansible account.

    To list all the Objects inside a bucket

    1. Query:
      MAC$ ansible -i inv_local localhost -m aws_s3 -a "bucket=ansiblebucket s3_url=https://v1e8.da.idrivee2-17.com mode=list region=us-east-1 aws_access_key= aws_secret_key="
    2. Result:

      localhost | SUCCESS => {
   "changed": false,
   "msg": "LIST operation complete",
   "s3_keys": [
       "testfile.txt"
   ]
}

    Note: Data restoration is handled by your specific backup solution provider and is affected by multiple variables that are unique to your environment. For application-related enquiries/support, it is strongly recommended you seek guidance from the technical team of your backup solution provider.
