Workaround
After carefully considering the severity and frequency of the issue, and the cost and risk of attempting a fix, it has been decided to not address this issue in any current or near future releases. We do not make these decisions lightly, and we apologize for any inconvenience.
Please use one of the following workarounds:
- Assign the json to a scratchpad variable in a run script and pass in the scratchpad variable.
- Create an Ad Object and then an Update AD Object on the workflow.
