Is it possible, to input a "Survey Variables" into the "CLI args"?

[kyberorg]

Use case:
I have:

• Survey Variables: host (type string).

I want use it to limit playbook with single host or comma-separated list of hosts:

[
  "-l", "$host"
]

Is it possible?

Greetings.

It seems this question was already asked but stayed unanswered.. :(
Actually I don't think so - as those survey-vars seem to be translated into 'extra-vars' that cannot be referenced in the context of the command-execution. I read into the codebase a little, but did not manage to find out how they are handled.
But please just try it out and report back. Would be interesting.

In practice '--limit' is used so common that, in my optinion, it deserves its own form-field inside the task & task-template.

I agree, that limit should have own form-field.

Opened a specific feature-request for adding a --limit field: #1357
