Red Hat EX374 exam

 November 13, 2025

Earlier this month, I sat the Red Hat EX374 exam to renew my Red Hat Certified Specialist in Developing Automation with Ansible Automation Platform certification. As I’m already a Red Hat Certified Architect and have passed this same exam a couple of years ago, I wasn’t too worried about it. Still, it is always interesting to see how exams evolve.

When I registered for the exam, I quickly checked the Objectives and remembered that it covered both Ansible core content (playbooks, modules, roles) and a lot of Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) capabilities, such as controllers, collections, and execution environments.

Having completed all Red Hat Ansible exams, I think this is by far the most difficult; in fact, this was one of the very few times I finished the exam in the last hour of the available time.

An aspect I did not really appreciate about this exam is that some questions aim to test knowledge of topics that are rarely used. Although the documentation is available, it is crippled because the search function does not work, which is probably the most common way to navigate Ansible’s documentation, given its hugeness.

I think this exam is ideal for:

• Infrastructure engineers required to develop Ansible automation.
• Anyone who wants to showcase proficiency in Ansible playbook writing.
• Professionals aiming toward Red Hat Certified Architect (RHCA), or keeping it current, as was my case.

Disclaimer: I have not personally paid for this exam, as my current employer has covered the certification costs.
