Running a PowerShell command using Ansible

Question

I have some PowerShell commands to perform a job. Instead of running them one after another, I want to place them in an Ansible playbook so that they get executed in a sequence when the playbook is being run.

Any suggestions about which modules could I use in ansible to do this??

Is Ansible's documentation of any help? docs.ansible.com/ansible/… — José Luis

Save the commands to a file and execute them using the script module.

- script: PowerShell.ps1

Hey, I have done this.... - script: 'C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\cpsm' where cpsm is the name of the powershell file. But, I get the error that it is unable to find the file in the expected paths.

Did you read and understand this sentence from the manual "The local script at path will be transferred to the remote node and then executed"?
