1. In Cloud Shell, create a file named rg.yml.

   code rg.yml

2. Paste the following code into the editor:

   ---
   - hosts: localhost
     connection: local
     tasks:
       - name: Create resource group
         azure_rm_resourcegroup:
           name: ansible-rg
           location: eastus
         register: rg
       - debug:
           var: rg

3. Save the file and exit the editor.

4. Run the playbook using the ansible-playbook command:

   ansible-playbook rg.yml

After running the playbook, you see output similar to the following results:
