Ways to fix

This Exception just means that the Jmespath package is not installed, Ansible attempts to import it then stores if that worked as a boolean. meaning if the import fails the exception is raised. the way to fix this is to make sure that Jmespath is installed.

install using pip :

pip install jmespath

or with pip3:

pip3 install jmespath
