Hey all, I'm having trouble deserializing json strings from requests

[Aleksei Tirman [JB]]

To deserialize a JSON string you need to remove the String type from the list of the ignored types:

install(ContentNegotiation) {
   // ...
   removeIgnoredType<String>()
}

Starting from version 3.0.0, the behavior will be what you expect.
