+module: include_role
+short_description: Load and execute a role
+description:
+ - Dynamically loads and executes a specified role as a task.
+ - May be used only where Ansible tasks are allowed - inside C(pre_tasks), C(tasks), or C(post_tasks) play objects, or as a task inside a role.
+ - Task-level keywords, loops, and conditionals apply only to the C(include_role) statement itself.
+ - To apply keywords to the tasks within the role, pass them using the C(apply) option or use M(ansible.builtin.import_role) instead.
+ - Ignores some keywords, like C(until) and C(retries).
+ - This module is also supported for Windows targets.
+ - Does not work in handlers.
+version_added: "2.2"
+options:

+ description:
+ - Accepts a hash of task keywords (e.g. C(tags), C(become)) that will be applied to all tasks within the included role.

+ description:
+ - This option dictates whether the role's C(vars) and C(defaults) are exposed to the play. If set to C(true)
+ the variables will be available to tasks following the C(include_role) task. This functionality differs from
+ standard variable exposure for roles listed under the C(roles) header or C(import_role) as they are exposed
+ to the play at playbook parsing time, and available to earlier roles and tasks as well.
