Reading JSON from workflow input throws "ClassCastException" exception

[KunalKumar050894]

Hi,

I'm passing a json as input to the workflow and need to pass the json as it is to my worker.

My input json:
{
"v3Spec":{
"version": "1",
"sddc_id": "1a3bd15e-97be-472c-ba7e-3f2f6f6e19d4",
}
}
Code for fetching it inside worker:
String spec = (String)task.getInputData().get("v3Spec");

While accessing the json inside my worker I'm getting following error:
java.lang.ClassCastException: class com.google.gson.internal.LinkedTreeMap cannot be cast to class java.lang.String (com.google.gson.internal.LinkedTreeMap is in unnamed module of loader 'app'; java.lang.String is in module java.base of loader 'bootstrap')
I've also tried casting input to JSONObject that didnt worked.

Please help with providing a resolution.
