hi jfrost, thanks for your snippet and it is useful. In my project, people are using mine.get as,

{% set remote = [] %}
{% for server, ipaddrs in salt['mine.get']('kroles:remote', 'network.ip_addrs', 'grain').items() %}
  {% do remote.append(server) %}
{% endfor %}

{% set lanforge = [] %}
{% for server, ipaddrs in salt['mine.get']('lg*', 'network.ip_addrs', 'glob').items() %}
  {% do lanforge.append(server) %}
{% endfor %}

what is the third argument, ('glob', 'grain') that is used in my project? i am not seeing the argument in your snippet...

is it possible to have a simple example of mine for getting ip address for all appserver group. I try you example and i need more information

thank
