I'm trying to pass in parameters inline to a ARM template from within PowerShell using the following command:
azure group deployment create -f my_arm_template.json -g myresourcegroup -p '{\"slot\":\"blue\"}' --verbose
and receive the error:
Error converting value "blue" to type 'Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ResourceStack.Frontdoor.Data.Definitions.DeploymentParameterDefinition'. Path 'properties.parameters.slot'
I'm using the example given from this page: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/resource-group-template-deploy/
I have tried without escaping the quotes just like the example and various other ways but every other attempt breaks when trying to validate my template.
UPDATE 1: I have tried this from CMD in addition to Powershell with the same results.
