Can you use this module to provision VMs on any Nutanix AHV cluster? or this repo is only for provisioning VMs on Nutanix Cloud?

Hi! I'm new to Nutanix and I'm looking into managing it via Ansible.
Can I expect this module to work properly with the Prism Element API (v2) or does it require Prism Central API (v3 or 4)?

[premkarat]

Only V3 api is currently supported.
No plans to support v2.
V4 support is in the roadmap, but cannot commit any timelines now.

[francescomanfrediextra]

Thank you very much.

Hello,

I am leveraging the module to build VM frames/containers basically (vm's that have no OS installed) as part of a pipeline. The issue I am currently facing is that each time I run the playbook and build the VM it will build a new VM with the same name. This breaks the expected idempotency I would expect to work natively with a module. Are there additional requirements that are not shown in the examples or the module documentation to ensure this doesn't happen?
