This enables organizations to leverage Ansible for tasks that are executed and intersect/require activities to be performed on IBM Cloud to fulfil the objective.\n\nThe Ansible Collection for IBM Cloud contains many generated Ansible Modules, each Ansible Module is a wrapper around [Terraform Provider for IBM Cloud] elements (i.e. resource or data source). This provides an extensive list Ansible Modules to perform activities within IBM Cloud.\n\nWhen any Ansible Module is executed, on-the-fly Terraform code is generated and executed; a one-time download of an appropriate Terraform binary and the [Terraform Provider for IBM Cloud from the Terraform Registry] is performed to the Ansible temporary directory.\n\n\n## Contents\n\nSee the complete list of Ansible Modules within this Ansible Collection, are visible on the [Ansible Galaxy entry of the Ansible Collection for IBM Cloud] or in the [GitHub repository /docs subdirectory].\n\nAs each Ansible Module is a wrapper for a Terraform element, it is also possible to view other examples in the [documentation of the Terraform Provider for IBM Cloud].\n\n\n## Getting Started\n\n### Requirements\n\n- [Python 3.10+] installation\n  - Best practice recommendation when using Ansible, is to use Ansible Core from an isolated [venv] (e.g. `python3 -m venv ~/.py_venv/venv1 \u0026\u0026 source ~/.py_venv/venv1/bin/activate`)\n\n- [Ansible Core] 2.12+ installation *(alternatively, using Ansible Community Edition which provides Ansible Core + various community Ansible Collections)*\n\n### Install Ansible Collection for IBM Cloud\n\n1. Execute Ansible Galaxy CLI to install the Ansible Collection for IBM Cloud. See alternative installation methods in the [Ansible User guide - Collections], such as version-locking and using a requirements file.\n\n    ```shell\n    ansible-galaxy collection install ibm.cloudcollection\n    ```\n\n\n## Example Ansible Playbooks\n\n1. [IBM Cloud IAM User invite example](https://github.com/IBM-Cloud/ansible-collection-ibm/tree/master/examples/account-iam-user-invite)\n\n1. [IBM Cloud Resource Group Example](https://github.com/IBM-Cloud/ansible-collection-ibm/tree/master/examples/account-resource-group)\n\n1.
