WM REST API jobSearch returns "currentStep" as an array but claims a string type

Post a job search request and specify to return "currentStep" in fields

https://{{env.hostname}}/workflowmanager/workflow/{{env.workflowitemid}}/jobs/search?token={{env.token}} { "num": 10, "start": 0, "q": "1=1", "fields": ["JobId", "JobName", "priority", "dueDate", "currentStep"] }

Response specifies that "currentStep" is a string but its value is actually an array.

{ "q": "1=1", "fields": [ { "name": "JobId", "fieldType": "String" }, { "name": "JobName", "fieldType": "String" }, { "name": "priority", "fieldType": "String" }, { "name": "dueDate", "fieldType": "DateTime" }, { "name": "currentStep", "fieldType": "String" } ], "results": [ [ "gM5_BuxmS6yKneDz4hNGew", "JOB_1", "Low", "2022-12-23T10:30:57Z", [ "tempName" ] ], [ "avDKQmdgSGSlxC79hZju_A", "JOB_2", "Low", "2022-12-23T10:31:01Z", [ "tempName" ] ] ], "start": 0, "nextStart": -1, "num": 2 }

I attempted to modify the request to include "currentSteps" (plural) which is an actual property of a `job` but the API errored with "field does not exist".
