pass string as bool from C# to PowerShell

Question

i've created a c# windows form that running multiple PowerShell commands, and I have issue with one if the command PowerShell command:

Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity "email" -AddAdditionalResponse:$true -AdditionalResponse:"message"

How I run it from C#:

myCommand = new Command("Set-CalendarProcessing");
            myCommand.Parameters.Add("identity", desiredRoom);
            myCommand.Parameters.Add("AddAdditionalResponse", "true");
            myCommand.Parameters.Add("AdditionalResponse", message);
            plPileLine = rsRemoteRunspace.CreatePipeline();
            plPileLine.Commands.Add(myCommand);
            RsResultsresults = plPileLine.Invoke();

I'm getting error that 'true' passed as a string and powershell isn't converting to bool, I tried '$True', '1', none of them worked, please advice. thank you.

Have you tried to pass it as plain bool without quotes?

I'm pretty sure true is a keyword in C#. It seems obvious, but it's worth asking if you tried:

myCommand.Parameters.Add("AddAdditionalResponse", true);
