can we deploy .OVA template via robot framework? For .ova template is there any extra plugins on envirment variable settings required?

I need to write automated way to deploy .ova templates using robot framework. Here i have some confusion regarding .ova deployment....

I got some inputs from web that .ovf can be deployed via the same, but for .ova, is there any extra plugins or extra ENV variable settings required? I have link to download the .ova and deploy it, i am able to download it and trying to get a way to deploy these .ova in an efficient way.

I am using pysphere library in backend (python functions do the actual job, calling them via keywords in test script)

please share you thoughts!
