Automation controller provides a centralized location that you can use to run your Ansible automation and review the results of automation runs.
An automation controller project specifies the location of a Git repository that stores Ansible code and, if needed, a source control credential to authenticate to the Git repository.
An automation controller job template specifies the inventory, machine credentials, execution environment, project, and playbook to use to run your Ansible code on managed hosts.
You can use the automation controller web UI to launch automation jobs from a job template and to review the results of jobs.
Using ansible-navigator to test Ansible Playbooks in an execution environment can help streamline the process of setting up those playbooks to run successfully on automation controller.
