ansible uri module with form - module

Question

Is it possible to run this command with uri module in ansible ?
- shell: unset http_proxy && curl -X POST -H "Cache-Control:no-cache" -F "access_key={{ api_user }}" -F "secret_key={{ api_pass }}" "http://mydomain.bla/api/v1/login_check"
I tried like this:
- uri:
url: http://mydomain.bla/api/v1/login_check
method: POST
user: "{{ api_user }}"
password: "{{ api_pass }}"
environment:
http_proxy: ''
And like this:
- uri:
url: http://mydomain.bla/api/v1/login_check
method: POST
body: "access_key={{ api_user }}&secret_key={{ api_pass }}"
environment:
http_proxy: ''
And still does not work.
I'm trying to get a token and store it in an ansible variable.
"use_proxy: false" or no does not work - that's why I'm using this ugly environment workaround

You forgot to use return_content: yes
From module's docs:
return_content (default: no) – Whether or not to return the body of the request as a "content" key in the dictionary result.
- uri:
url: http://mydomain.bla/api/v1/login_check
method: POST
body: "access_key={{ api_user }}&secret_key={{ api_pass }}"
return_content: yes
register: token_response
environment:
http_proxy: ''
- debug: var=token_response.content
