PostgreSQL: Issue with passing array to procedure

Question

I have a type as:

CREATE TYPE status_record AS
   (
   id bigint,
   status boolean
   );

A procedure that does some processing with an arr

Answer 1

Use an array literal (text representation of the array), since the array constructor ARRAY[...] has to be evaluated by Postgres:

SELECT update_status('{"(1,t)","(2,f)"}'::status_record[]);

Maybe even without the explicit cast:

SELECT update_status('{"(1,t)","(2,f)"}');
