Automate Cisco FMC using Ansible Tower

[chebbah]

Dear community,
I'm trying to automate Cisco FMC (v6.2) using Ansible tower (v2.9.27), But I have problems with starting the connection,
known That I want to use "HTTP API" connection, so may you help me understand the steps to build this connection,
Thank you.

thank you, but still ends with this error :

{
"msg": "unable to load API plugin for network_os cisco",
"_ansible_no_log": false
}

As stated in the Ansible Galaxy page linked from the DevNet page shared earlier by @ahollifield:

"This module has been tested against the following cisco Secure Firewall Management Center versions: 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3"

https://galaxy.ansible.com/cisco/fmcansible

The version of FMC you are using is not validated and likely does not support the APIs required by the Ansible module.

I want to ask about the possibility of using the HTTP API to automate Cisco FMC device operations without the need for any additional modules or dependencies. is it possible, thank you Sir.

I have no experience working with the FMC REST APIs, but according to the documentation, the FMC API should be supported from version 6.1 or higher. The same documentation lists the objects that can be managed via the REST API.
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/firepower/630/api/REST/Firepower_Management_Center_REST_API_Quick_Start_Guide_630/About_the_Firepower_REST_API.html

I found this via the link to DevNet shared earlier. That link also includes additional documentation as well as learning modules.
