Did you use ansible-pulp? Which release?
What kind of errors are you seeing in journalctl -l -f?

It's possible that your settings file has the wrong permissions on it and
we are failing to raise an error due to a recently discovered bug[0]. It
should be owned by pulp:pulp.

You need to install pulp_rpm plugin. Instructions for that are here[1].

Pulp 3 does not manage consumers. You can only sync external repositories.
You can upload your own content. You can create custom repository versions
using a mix of content from external repos and uploaded.

Yes, right now you have to use the REST API. We provide a Python and Ruby
clients[2]. We also provide documentation on how to generate a client in
any language supported by openapi-generator[3]. There is an effort to
create ansible modules[4].
