Ruby (Chef) Hash Array - Name is a Required Property - ruby

Question

I'm trying to create a recipe to deploy Remote Desktop Services to Windows Servers, everything is working as expected apart from the Application deployment resource I created - it's a simple resource but I'm having a lot of issues passing the applications to be deployed as a hash array.
attributes\default.rb
default['app']['app_options'] = [
{
connection_broker: 'serv-01',
options: {
collectionname: 'Terminal Services',
alias: 'Acrobat',
displayname: 'Adobe Acrobat',
filepath: 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Adobe\\Acrobat 11.0\\Acrobat\\Acrobat.exe',
filevirtualpath: 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Adobe\\Acrobat 11.0\\Acrobat\\Acrobat.exe',
commandlinesetting: 'DoNotAllow',
iconindex: '0',
iconpath: '\\\\serv-01\\C$\\Program Files (x86)\\Adobe\\Acrobat 11.0\\Acrobat\\Acrobat.exe',
usergroups: ['domain\\group'],
showinwebaccess: '1'
}
},
{
connection_broker: 'serv-01',
options: {
collectionname: 'Terminal Services',
alias: 'Accounts',
displayname: 'Accounts',
foldername: 'Accounts',
filepath: 'D:\\Accounts\\Accounts.bat',
filevirtualpath: 'D:\\Accounts\\Accounts.bat',
commandlinesetting: 'DoNotAllow',
iconindex: '0',
iconpath: 'C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe',
usergroups: ['domain\\group'],
showinwebaccess: '1'
}
}
]
recipes\remote_desktop.rb
rdapps = node.read('app', 'app_options') || []
rdapps.each do |app|
remote_desktop_apps app['options']['alias'] do
action :create
connection_broker app['connection_broker']
app_options app['options']
end
end
resources\remote_desktop_apps.rb
resource_name :remote_desktop_apps
property :connection_broker, String,
desired_state: false
property :app_options, [String, Hash, Array],
desired_state: false
action :create do
app_options.each do |k,v|
script << "New-RDRemoteApp -ConnectionBroker "#{connection_broker}" {-#{k.to_s.capitalize} #{v}}.join(' ')}"
end
end
Edit
Thanks to #seshadri_c for the help past the first hurdle, I've hit another issue which seems related to the attributes.
Here is the output of a kitchen converge
================================================================================
Error executing action `create` on resource 'remote_desktop_apps[Acrobat]'
