[Ansible] Unable to claim devices for network

[scoop263]

Hi,

Recently I had an ansible play stop working.

The error I am getting is:

The full traceback is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/ansible/executor/task_executor.py", line 165, in run
    res = self._execute()

TypeError: Networks.claimNetworkDevices() got an unexpected keyword argument 'addAtomically'
fatal: [n834.meraki.com]: FAILED! => {
    "msg": "Unexpected failure during module execution: Networks.claimNetworkDevices() got an unexpected keyword argument 'addAtomically'",
    "stdout": ""
}

I noticed this error, and updated my collections to 2.20.5

I have updated the Meraki SDK on my machine.

However this is still not working as intended.

Here are my two plays

The top one is the original, and the bottom one is a test claim play but both result in the same error as above.

- name: Assign Primary MX Device to Network
  cisco.meraki.networks_devices_claim:
    meraki_api_key: "{{meraki_api_key}}"
    networkId: "{{ meraki_Response.meraki_response.id }}"
    serials:
      - "{{ MX_1 }}"

- name: Test Claim
  cisco.meraki.networks_devices_claim:
    addAtomically: true
    meraki_api_key: "{{meraki_api_key}}"
    networkId: "{{ meraki_Response.meraki_response.id }}"
    serials:
      - "{{ MX_1 }}"

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you.

I resolved the issue.
In our environment, we are using Semaphore for Ansible, and what happened was Semaphore is using a different python module location, which was using an out of date Meraki SDK, than what any other account in the Linux box uses.
