Ansible parsing lists inside dictionary - list

Question

- name: Use Collections
hosts: all
connection: local
gather_facts: no
vars:
ansible_python_interpreter: /usr/local/bin/python3.9
tasks:
- name: Collect BIG-IP information
bigip_device_info:
gather_subset:
- virtual-servers
provider:
server: y.y.y.y
user: abc
password: abc1
validate_certs: False
delegate_to: localhost
register: output
- name: debug
debug: msg={{output.ansible_facts| json_query(jmesquery)}}
vars:
jmesquery: "[*].{Satus: item.availability_status, Destinationaddress: item.destination_address, Destination: item.destination}"
i am getting below output, empty message
ansible-playbook -i inv bigipfacts.yml
PLAY [Use Collections] ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
TASK [Collect BIG-IP information] ****************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [y.y.y.y]
TASK [debug] *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [y.y.y.y] => {
"msg": ""
}
PLAY RECAP ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
y.y.y.y : ok=2 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=0 skipped=0 rescued=0 ignored=0
Required/wanted output- in future i want parse more from bottom output. but for now these three values.
"availability_status": "available",
"destination": "/1.1.1..1:8080",
"destination_address": "2.2.2.2",
"availability_status": "available",
"destination": "/3.3.3.3.3%22:8080",
"destination_address": "4.4.4.4",
output.ansible_facts has below info, i want to parse below output and extract only few values in a list like shown above
TASK [debug] *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Answer 1

You omitted ansible_net_virtual_servers entirely, and appear to have conflated with_items: (which sets an item name in jinja2) with JMESPath which has no such implicit name creation
- debug:
msg: >-
{{ output.ansible_facts.ansible_net_virtual_servers
| json_query(jmesquery) }}
vars:
jmesquery: "[*].{Satus: availability_status, Destinationaddress: destination_address, Destination: destination}"
produces
ok: [localhost] => {
"msg": [
{
"Destination": "/1.1.1..1:8080",
"Destinationaddress": "2.2.2.2",
"Satus": "available"
},
{
"Destination": "/3.3.3.3.3%22:8080",
"Destinationaddress": "4.4.4.4",
"Satus": "available"
}
]
}
