Escaping of string parameter different for `dotnet lambda-test-tool-6.0...` and `dotnet lambda invoke-function...`

[bryanjhogan]

Description

Invoking a Lambda function that takes a string as a parameter from the lambda-test-tool requires different escaping than invoking the real Lambda from dotnet lambda invoke-function.

Reproduction Steps

Create a new Lambda from the template lambda.EmptyFunction. Deploy to AWS Lambda.

Command Prompt

Run dotnet lambda invoke-function EmptyFunction --payload ""hello"", or dotnet lambda invoke-function EmptyFunction --payload '"hello"' . These will work.

Try dotnet lambda-test-tool-6.0 --no-ui --payload ""hello"", or dotnet lambda-test-tool-6.0 --no-ui --payload '"hello"' These will fail - "System.Exception: Error deserializing the input JSON to type String"

PowerShell

Run dotnet lambda invoke-function EmptyFunction --payload ""hello"", or dotnet lambda invoke-function EmptyFunction --payload '"hello"' These will work.

Try dotnet lambda-test-tool-6.0 --no-ui --payload ""hello"", or dotnet lambda-test-tool-6.0 --no-ui --payload '"hello"' These will fail - "System.Exception: Error deserializing the input JSON to type String"

What actually works for lambda-test-tool-6.0

PowerShell - dotnet lambda-test-tool-6.0 --no-ui --payload '\"hello\"''

Command Prompt - dotnet lambda-test-tool-6.0 --no-ui --payload "\"hello\""
