Ansible offers two ways to reuse files and roles in a playbook: dynamic and static.

• For reuse, add an include_* task in the tasks section of a play:

  • include_role
  • include_tasks
  • include_vars

• For static reuse, add an import_* task in the tasks section of a play:

  • import_role
  • import_tasks

Task include and import statements can be used at arbitrary depth.

You can still use the bare roles keyword at the play level to incorporate a role in a playbook statically. However, the bare include keyword, once used for both task files and playbook-level includes, is now deprecated.
