I'm questioning the format of my inputs, is there a place I can look at the type that the arguments received?

Are those strings, bools, doubles? Are JSON objects escaped for special symbols like '\' ?

Hi @idelfonsog2 sorry for the delay - there is no specific escaping for the 'fastlaneArguments' input value as I see - you can check the result fastlane command by running the pipeline in debug mode.
