AnsibleUnsafeText and AnsibleUndefined for dict in included task-CodePudding

I need to loop on a list of dictionaries. I include a tasks file using with_items on my list.

When I try to execute tasks inside included file I get "AnsibleUnsafeText" and "AnsibleUndefined" on 2 dictionaries of my elemets but NOT inside the main file.

Main file

I can't use these dictionaries inside my included tasks! Why this happens and how can I solve the problem?

        ext_myapp_shib_auth: " {{ item.ext_myapp_shib_auth }}"

You've added an extraneous space at the beginning of the value, which forces it to be interpreted as a string instead of a data structure.
