The metadata for the InArray validator is not complete. It is missing the haystack key. However, this might have been intentional as there is no way to set an array to the haystack via the admin. But then you could argue why even have this validator in Apigility admin at all.
I solved this in a project by extending the InArray validator and adding a haystack and haystack_delimiter key to the validator metadata which allows me to pass a comma separated string to the setHaystack() method, exploding it to an array based on the haystack_delimiter key. Not sure if this is the best way to do it, but it is working for my needs.
