Ansible nested loops using value form one loop to another - loops

Question

I am facing issue while writing nested loops in ansible, for below iteration I am getting error
ansible role I am using looks like below
The conditional check 'item[0]['value']['from'] == COMPONENT_NAME' failed. The error was: error while evaluating conditional (item[0]['value']['from'] == COMPONENT_NAME): 'item' is undefined
Role
- name: create config file
template:
src: "{{template_source}}/{{COMPONENT_NAME}}/sessions/{{ item[0]['value']['protocol']}}/{{item[0]['value']['from_template']}}"
dest: "{{dest_folder}}/{{app}}/{{instance_name}}/{{COMPONENT_NAME}}/{{VENUE}}/Config/Repo/session/{{item[0]['value']['protocol']}}/{{item[1]}}.json"
mode: 0755
vars:
dest_file_name: "{{instance_name}}_{{COMPONENT_NAME}}_{{VENUE}}_{{item[0]['key']}}"
mbFlag: "{{item[0]['value']['broker'] | default('False')}}"
when: item[0]['value']['from'] == COMPONENT_NAME
with_nested:
- "{{ connections | dict2items }}"
- "{{myFileList['from_' + COMPONENT_NAME +'_'+ VENUE +'_'+ item[0]['value']['to']].split(',') }}"
yml file having below variable and I am iterating over it.
myFileList:
{
from_et_AG_zp: DevOpsTest_et_zp_AG_zp,

Answer 1

After too many permutation and combination, I realize that we can not pass outer loop variable value from outer loop to inner loop, So as work around I write first loop in first role and second loop in another role and call second role from first by iterating over first loop that full fill my ends
