Pass JSON array to Bicep file from Azure pipeline

[eirikfk]

I'm trying to pass a JSON array from my Azure pipeline into a Bicep file using the format outlined here.

The JSON array looks like this:

[{"ip":"11.222.333.1/32","description":"Desc 1"},{"ip":"11.222.444.1/32","description":"Desc 2"}]

To ensure the format is correct, I have currently defined the JSON string directly in the Bicep file as follows:

param ipAddressesString string = '[[{\'ip\':\'11.222.333.1/32\',\'description\':\'Desc 1\'},{\'ip\':\'11.222.444.1/32\',\'description\':\'Desc 2\'}]]'

To read it, I'm using the following syntax that fails:
var ipAddressesArray = json(ipAddressesString)

This results in the following error:

WARNING: The configuration value of bicep.use_binary_from_path has been set to 'false'.
ERROR: {
  "error": {
    "code": "InvalidTemplate",
    "message": "Deployment template validation failed: 'The template variable 'ipAddressesArray' is not valid: Unable to evaluate the template language function 'json'. The argument provided is not a valid JSON string.. Please see https://aka.ms/arm-functions for usage details.'.",
    "additionalInfo": [
      {
        "type": "TemplateViolation",
        "info": {
          "lineNumber": 1,
          "linePosition": 3479,
          "path": "properties.template.variables.ipAddressesArray"
        }
      }
    ]
  },
  "properties": {}
}

What am I doing wrong?

I have also come upon this problem which I could not solve. Would be great if someone could find a solution here!
