Unsupported parameters for (cisco.asa.asa_command) module: context, passwords found in provider.

Hello,

I am trying to send a 'show version' command to my Cisco ASA using Ansible, but I am encountering the following errors and I don't know why. The same thing works for my Cisco router though. Below are some details that might be helpful.

Cisco Asa version -> 9.12(2)9

Ansible version -> 2.9.13

Python version -> 2.7.17

Ansible hosts:

#This is a group of remote servers with GUI
[gui]
ubuntu ansible_user=admin

#These are global variables for the group Cisco
[cisco:vars]
ansible_connection=local
ansible_network_os=ios

#This is a group of remote servers for Cisco devices
[cisco]
cisco_router ansible_user=admin

[firewall:vars]
ansible_connection=local

[firewall]
cisco_asa ansible_user=admin

Asa playbook:

- name: "Connecting to Cisco ASA"

hosts: firewall

gather_facts: no

tasks:

- name: run show version on remote devices

cisco.asa.asa_command:

commands:

- show version

Error encoutering:

fatal: [cisco_asa]: FAILED! => {"ansible_facts": {"discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python"}, "changed": false, "msg": "Unsupported parameters for (cisco.asa.asa_command) module: context, passwords found in provider.

Can someone please help ? I am stuck on this
