All WTI Ansible playbooks use Ansible native modules to communicate with WTI device. No programming knowledge is necessary but examining the output from the easy to use playbooks might be more helpful if you looked at the WTI RESTful documentation online
The cpm_username you use to log into the WTI device must have the proper "Access Level" and also have Service Access "RESTful API Access" turned on in the WTI device itself.

Works with the WTI cmp_metering lookup plugs included in Ansible 2.7 (and above) to get realtime and historical power and current reading from WTI power type devices.
currentgetlookup.yml: If no parameters are passed, this will return the real-time current consumption along with plug count and various power capability reporting statistics. If startdate and enddate are defined in the playbook a historical listing of current consumption will be returned.
powergetlookup.yml: If no parameters are passed, this will return the real-time power consumption along with plug count and various power capability reporting statistics. If startdate and enddate are defined in the playbook a historical listing of current power will be returned.
Works with the WTI cmp_user module included in Ansible 2.7 (and above) to get/set user settings of WTI OOB and PDU devices. The get requires SuperUser "Access Level", while the add, edit and delete require Administrator "Access Level"
userget.yml: Gets various user parameters defined to the "user_name" account.
