Error message

Error: failed to wait for creation of Managed Application "CBD" (Resource Group "CBS-Resourcegroup"): Code="ApplianceProvisioningFailed" Message="Deployment template validation failed: 'Template parameter JToken type is not valid. Expected 'Boolean'. Actual 'String'. Please see https://aka.ms/resource-manager-parameter-files for usage details.'." AdditionalInfo=[{"info":{"lineNumber":48,"linePosition":20,"path":"parameters.setupHA"},"type":"TemplateViolation"}]

Expected Behavior

Be able to specify parameters properly with type. Today all the params are getting converted to a string. While it works for what we have in the documented examples, there are managed applications waiting for non-string vals.

Actual Behavior

All the values are getting converted to a string causing deployment issues for apps waiting for other kind of parameter types.

Steps to Reproduce

We tried to deploy Pure CBS closed beta as a Managed App. I strongly believe there can be other managed apps waiting for non-string parameters.
