RAML 1.0 array types not working

The following example does not work with the current version (master) of the API Console.

First the following is what I get when trying to provide information inside the console:

I am providing a single string and get invalid type. Putting the string into quotes lets the error message disappear. Providing an array like [ "hello", "world" ] I get the following response:

{
  "error": "query parameters: orx: unknown type string[]"
}

For string[], Console expects a JSON string for an array, so the one you provided ([ "hello", "world" ]) is OK. As for the response, it depends on the service that Console is hitting when using the Try It, so it's not a Console issue.

@juancoen thanks for your response. I understand that this might be a problem on the mocking service that I have enabled but what about the issue that using sdfsfdgd vs "sdfsfdgd" actually gives me to different validation results? The former being invalid and the latter valid.

[juancoen]

yeah, that seems like a Console bug

@juancoen did you had a chance to fix the console issue?
