Describe the bug

cfn-lint is unable to recognize that schemaVersion: needs to be a string:

  SSMDocument:
    Type: AWS::SSM::Document
    Properties:
      DocumentType: "Command"
      Content:
        schemaVersion: 2.2
        mainSteps:
          - action: aws:runShellScript...

CloudFormation is throwing the following exception:

Resource handler returned message: "Invalid request provided: schemaVersion should be String
(Service: Ssm, Status Code: 400, Request ID: 6123eabf-1adf-4b9e-a2db-XXXXXXXX)"
(RequestToken: ac277c66-4ced-8306-88b3-XXXXXXXX, HandlerErrorCode: InvalidRequest)

Expected behavior

cfn-lint should display this as an error.

we would like to help cover this but we will need to develop some content ourselves for this. Currently Content in the spec is listed as json which means the CloudFormation specs don't include the properties and what their types are.

We do this for step functions, IAM policies, and some other areas but we have not tackled the SSM doc content as of yet.

@kddejong I would like to contribute to this issue. I saw we have defined 'Content' as json in cfn-lint\test\fixtures\specs\us-east-1.json. Can you please guide me towards the implementation we have done for step functions and IAM policies in such similar situations?

[kddejong]

If we create some JSON schemas we can use those to validate SSM documents. Looks like that was started here but hasn't been updated in a while. https://github.com/aws/amazon-ssm-document-language-service/blob/master/src/schema/ssmDocumentSchema.ts

I tried to dig through the code and similar issues from the past. Would it be the right understanding to add this json schema to all the files under cfn-lint\src\cfnlint\data\CloudSpecs*.json ?
