Here's the AWX output:

Seems to be a bug in NIOS 9.0.0 that is fixed in 9.0.4.

[mkearey]

G'day Peter. According to my reading:

"use_dns_ea_inheritance
When use_dns_ea_inheritance is True, the EA is inherited from associated zone.

Type

Bool.

Create

The default value is False.

Search

The field is not available for search." <---- this.

The ansible module is adding the field as a search term :

""module_stderr": "Failed on object search with url https://infoblox.blah.blah/wapi/v2.11/record%3Ahost?name=eg.example.com&view=default&_return_fields=name%2Cview%2Cipv4addrs%2Cipv6addrs%2Cconfigure_for_dns%2Cuse_dns_ea_inheritance..., "

use_dns_ea_inheritance field was never available to search on where as this update to ansible nios modules attempts to use it when creating a host object. I feel this is a bug in the nios module.
