Using ui:inputCheckbox with LDS for a new contact is giving me error if I don't select checkbox.

If I select the checkbox and then unselect it, it works, else it is giving an error

INVALID_TYPE_ON_FIELD_IN_RECORD

value not of required type

<ui:inputCheckbox value="{!v.object.selected__c}" />

What am I missing? If I want to pass false to the field, I have to select and then unselect it.

Edit

from the comments: I had tried lightning:input typed checkbox as well, but I faced setting it value properly; that's why I went for ui:inputCheckbox.

    Any reason why you're not using base lightning components from the lightning namespace?

  • Which tag are you using? lightning:recordForm or force:recordData?

The recommended option for UI components is to use a base Lightning component.

https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/component-library/bundle/lightning:input/example#lightningcomponentdemo:exampleInputCheckbox

They eventually supersede any component from the ui namespace.
