Feature Summary

It would be nice to have feature in awx cli to list servers from smart inventory. Right now it is possible to list if we have custom made inventory but same cannot if inventory type is smart. Then same thing we can see using api and from gui as well.

for example here : $ awx inventory list -f human --all |grep -i custom 65 custom_inventory

$ awx hosts list --inventory 65 -f human id name ====== ============ 381712 srvxxx 381713 srvyyy

$ awx inventory list --kind smart -f human id name == =========================================== 24 Linux RH6/7/8 Acceptance Servers

$ awx hosts list --inventory 24 -f human id name == ====

Maybe related but it would be nice if you could filter the inventory given an "ansible limit".

Yes, we can do limit and even host patterns are working but the main issue is we cannot see the servers list which we want here.

Sorry to go a bit of topic but are you sure? if you do "awx hosts list --inventory 65 -f human" with a filter it regexes the hosts and not apply the limit form cli?

a command like awx hosts list --inventory 65 -f human --filter " inventory group"

does not return the hosts in a inventory group?
