You can also include it in a `requirements.yml` file and install it via ansible-galaxy collection install -r `requirements.yml`, using the format:

You can call modules by their Fully Qualified Collection Namespace (FQCN), such as `grafana.grafana.cloud_stack`:
```yaml

grafana.grafana.cloud_stack:
name: mystack
stack_slug: mystack
org_slug: myorg
cloud_api_key: "{{ cloud_api_key }}"
region: eu
state: present
```
or you can add full namespace and collection name in the `collections` element in your playbook
```yaml
- name: Using grafana collection
hosts: localhost
collection:
- grafana.grafana
tasks:
- name: Create a Grafana Cloud stack

## Testing and Development
If you want to develop new content for this collection or improve what is already
here, the easiest way to work on the collection is to clone it into one of the configured
[`COLLECTIONS_PATHS`](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/config.html#collections-paths),
and work on it there.
### Testing with `ansible-test`
We use `ansible-test` for sanity.
