!!! warning
`anta get from-ansible` does not support inline vaulted variables, comment them out to generate your inventory.
If the vaulted variable is necessary to build the inventory (e.g. `ansible_host`), it needs to be unvaulted for `from-ansible` command to work."
The output is an inventory where the name of the container is added as a tag for each host:
```yaml
anta_inventory:
hosts:
- host: 10.73.252.41
name: srv-pod01
- host: 10.73.252.42
name: srv-pod02
- host: 10.73.252.43
name: srv-pod03
```
!!! warning
The current implementation only considers devices directly attached to a specific Ansible group and does not support inheritance when using the `--ansible-group` option.

By default, if user does not provide `--output` file, anta will save output to configured anta inventory (`anta --inventory`). If the output file has content, anta will ask user to overwrite when running in interactive console. This mechanism can be controlled by triggers in case of CI usage: `--overwrite` to force anta to overwrite file. If not set, anta will exit
