Known regression: Activity input fails to deserialize when the input is an array

[jerodvenemafm]

"version": "[4.*, 4.13.0)"

This doesn't look right for two reasons:

1. Syntax error with a ) vs ]
2. Doesn't match the versions listed in the ticket v3.29.0 or v4.12.0.

Is that actually right?

Edit: Found the definition here:

Apparently that trailing ) is correct, and means "up to but not including".

Workaround. Updated my code to pre-serialize the data to a string.

await client.startNew(orchestratorName, { input: options });

became

await client.startNew(orchestratorName, { input: JSON.stringify(options) });

and

const runBot: ActivityHandler = async (input: MyType): Promise<MyType> => {

became

const runBot: ActivityHandler = async (inputJson: string): Promise<string> => {
