Ansible role using the following command:

Use the following commands to download the required Ansible roles:
ansible-galaxy install avinetworks.avicontroller_kvm
ansible-galaxy install avinetworks.avise_kvm
The latest Ansible collection is available at Avi Ansible collection.
Avi Load Balancer supports API versioning for backward compatibility with automation scripts written for an object model older than the current one. Such scripts need not be updated to keep up with object model changes. Accordingly, playbook authors should set api_version to the oldest version of Avi Load Balancer in which their code can work.
The support for Ansible collection is available for Avi Load Balancer deployments. The Ansible collections are supported for Ansible version 2.9.10 or the later versions. The detailed information about installation and usage is available at Advanced Load Balancer Ansible Collection.
