Hi. I tried ktor with xml support, but unfortunatelly i can not get it up. here is my sample i tried:

@Serializable
@SerialName("modules")
data class Modules(
    val resId: String?,
    val contentUrl: String?,
)

val httpClient = HttpClient(Android) {
    install(ContentNegotiation) {
        xml()
    }
}

lifecycleScope.launch {
    val modules = httpClient.get("...").body<Modules>()
    Log.d("MODULES", modules.toString())
}

But when i do the httpClient.get(url).body<Modules>() i get the following error. can you please tell me what i am doing wrong.

io.ktor.client.call.NoTransformationFoundException: No transformation found: class io.ktor.utils.io.ByteBufferChannel -> class com.example.ktor.Modules

With what Content-Type the server replies to the client?

@Aleksei Tirman [JB] Thx for the hint with the Content-Type. The default one is Application/Xml . But the server returns Text/Xml . But now i get an error because i did not define every property in my data model. Is there a possibility to ignore unknown properties?
