Ansible, set_fact using if then else statement

Question

I am trying to set a variable in Ansible with set_fact at runtime based upon another variable. If uses first value no matter what the actual value is. Here is my code example:

Answer 1

One of the simple way to set fact based condition example as follows:

  - name: Set facts for delete operation results
    set_fact:
        tr_result: "{{ '{\"status\": \"SUCCESS\"}' if (op_result['output'] == 'Deleted') else '{\"status\" : \"FAILED\"}' }}"

Note: Assume op_result is a dict & already defined.

Code has been tested and working well.
