Dig deeper into Ansible and F5 integration

i am trying add a new virtual server, or change a configured virtual server, that has multiple irules attached. i want to dynamically assign the names of the irules via a variable file. while i dont have a problem looping through a task using external data, i do have a problem attaching multiple i rules in a single loop. as you may know each time you assign an irule via ansible (and the REST api), the operation is a replace, not append. if i run the task three times with one irule each time, the last irule i ran through the task is the one that is left configured.

im not the strongest with ansible, and i am having a hard time figuring the best way to assign multiple irules in one pass of a task using a list. any suggestions?
