Is there an Ansible module that lets you pull down the entire running configuration, versus just certain facts?
Previously there was such a module called "fortios_config_module" but it appears to be missing from the current collection.

I was able to solve this using the NTC modules, which use netmiko for SSH connections, which have a handler for FortiGates.
Instructions to install the NTC modules:
https://github.com/networktocode/ntc-ansible
Below is sample playbook that shows how to grab the running-config from a FortiGate. Replace the values for host, username, and password. This play does not require an inventory file.
---
- hosts: localhost
connection: local
gather_facts: no
become: no
tasks:
- name: "Gather show-run from FortiGate"
ntc_show_command:
connection=ssh
platform=fortinet
command='show'
host=firewall_device_name
username=first.last
password=password
We-ve used Ansible and Napalm
