I am trying to copy couple of files from my local to remote server and getting this error:
"ansible_loop_var": "item",
"changed": false,
"checksum": "7fc8ff2de203d603caf90e2b50a557cf176e5b3d",

}
},
"item": "snmp_exporter",
"msg": "Unsupported parameters for (copy) module: state Supported parameters
include: _original_basename, attributes, backup, checksum, content, delimiter, dest,
directory_mode, follow, force, group, local_follow, mode, owner, regexp,
remote_src, selevel, serole, setype, seuser, src, unsafe_writes, validate"
}
This is part of that playbook and I am getting error for all the items,
I just pasted one instance above:
- name: Status Check for Configuration Files, Exporters and RPMs
copy:
src: /Users/file_path/{{item}}
dest: /home/dest_path/check1/{{item}}
state: present
force: yes
mode: "0644"
with_items:
- prometheus
- grafana
- alertmanager
- start.sh
- snmp_exporter
I have tried changing the mode from 0644 to 0777, 2775 etc.
I also tried changing the state to touch
I also tried changing the module from copy
to file
but it didn't work as well
All these files are present at my local machine and there is a check1 directory at the remote server where i am trying to copy these files
Couple of tickets I found but didn't work for me:

The message says that you used an unsupported parameter, and listed the valid ones.
When we look at your playbook, we can see you actually did use an invalid parameter:
You need to remove this.
