Using filters with conditionals

You can use Jinja2 filters with conditionals for checking if the status of a task is failed, changed, success, or skipped. Let's start looking at examples:

In the preceding example, we first checked whether the httpd service was running and stored the output of that module in the httpd_result variable. We then checked whether the previous task failed using the Jinja2 filter, httpd_result|failed. Ansible will skip this task if the when condition fails, that is, if the previous task passed. Likewise, you can use changed, success, or skipped filters.
