Steps to Reproduce

1. Make sure you have 20+ runners and your desired one is not listed on the first page on paginated request curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: ${GITLAB_TOKEN}" "https://gitlab.example.con/api/v4/runners" | jq '.[].id ' | sort

  - name: Try and remove this non-listed runner
    gitlab_runner:
      api_token: "{{ access_token }}"
      api_url: "{{ gitlab_url }}"
      description: "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
      state: absent

Expected Results

Runner getting deleted.

Actual Results

ok: [srv01-runner35] => {"changed": false, "msg": "Runner deleted or does not exists"}

(Spoiler: it actually exists on the second page of the gitlab API paginated request.)

IMHO it's actually a duplicate of #7690. I close this issue as the bug has been fixed by #7790.

Feel free to add some more comments it the bug is still present. :)
