Creating VaultAppRoleCredential with jenkins-dsl

[jsknnr]

I am trying to create a VaultAppRoleCredential and attach it to the properties of a folder during creation via jenkins-dsl. The folder, the FolderCredentialProperty and the DomainCredential all are being created just fine. When I get to actually creating the VaultAppRoleCredential to attach it I end up getting a method signature exception on type Secret secretId.

I am correctly importing hudson.util.Secret and using the fromString method to create a secret to assign to secretId, however, I am still getting: No signature of method: javaposse.jobdsl.plugin.structs.DescribableContext.secretId() is applicable for argument types: (hudson.util.Secret)

The job-dsl describable context helper is correctly finding VaultAppRoleCredential and correctly returning the constructor as: public com.datapipe.jenkins.vault.credentials.VaultAppRoleCredential(com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.CredentialsScope,java.lang.String,java.lang.String,java.lang.String,hudson.util.Secret,java.lang.String)

This has been super confusing to me as I am handing it exactly what it expects. After logs of debugging I think I may have found the issue. Further through the context building when job-dsl tries to, I guess for a lack of a better word, resolve, the constructor types it ends up displaying this: VaultAppRoleCredential(scope: CredentialsScope[SYSTEM, GLOBAL, USER], id: String, description: String, roleId: String, secretId: org.kohsuke.stapler.NoStaplerConstructorException: There's no @DataBoundConstructor on any constructor of class hudson.util.Secret, path: String)

At this point it appears to set the value type of secretId to an ErrorType instead of a hudson.util.Secret type, resulting in the method signature error I ultimately end up receiving.

Is there any insight on how to resolve this issue with the DataBoundConstructor?
