+short_description: Remove keys from a list of dictionaries or a dictionary in base of value content
+version_added: "11.0.0"
+author:
+  - Lorenzo Tanganelli (@tanganellilore)
+description:
+  - This filter removes keys from a list of dictionaries or a dictionary,
+    recursively or not depending on the parameters.
+  - The type of values to be removed is defined by the O(values) parameter.
+  - The default is to remove keys with values like C(''), C([]), C({}), C(None), usefull for removing empty keys.
+options:
+  _input:
+    description:
+      - A list of dictionaries or a dictionary.
+    type: raw
+    elements: dictionary
+    required: true
+  values:
+    description:
+      - A single value or value pattern to remove, or a list of values or values patterns to remove.
+      - If O(matching_parameter=regex) there must be equally one pattern provided.
+    type: raw
+    required: true
+  recursive:
+    description: Specify if the filter should be applied recursively.
+    type: bool
+    default: true
+    required: false
+  matching_parameter:
+    description: Specify the matching option of values.
+    type: str
+    default: equal
+    choices:
+      equal: Matches values of equally one of the O(values[]) items.
+      regex: Matches values that match one of the regular expressions provided in O(values[]).
