I was wondering what treatment the CLI undertakes when handling string arguments, specifically casting of arguments to Cadence types. The docs don't mention anything specifically https://developers.flow.com/tools/flow-cli/transactions/send-transactions#arguments-1 It seems that it does handle the type casting for you, but i wanted to confirm and also understand the limitations of this if there are any @Chase | Flow 4D @Tom | Flow 4D thanks

You can specify the type like this iirc: --arg UFix64:0.01 or --arg Address:0x396aaf12da035b24 otherwise it will try to infer the type

I get unknown flag arg when I do that 😦 $ flow scripts execute ./mycript.cdc --arg Address:0xc87f5f0cfd217fcd -n mainnet unknown flag: --arg flow version Version: v2.0.1

Yeah it seems like --arg is no longer supported, sorry for old info. You can just specify args without a flag
