my lan connectivity included creating vnics. Then i have another playbook that created vnic templates. do i need to create another playbook to attach the vnic to the vnic template for last step?

I've added an example of attaching an existing vNIC to a template at https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/intersight-ansible/blob/main/playbooks/intersight_attach_vnic_template.yml  The bulk/Requests API is used for attach, and you can filter in a developer console on bulk to see any actions that use that resource.

Hi Thanks. Can the SlotId be set to auto? or does it need an order number?

AutoSlodId can be set to true in the Placement dictionary.
