Why is ktor not able to parse the res to a data class? I have the contentNegotiation plugin installed

client = HttpClient(CIO) {
            install(ContentNegotiation) {
                jackson()
            }
        }

Because it returns HttpResponse and should use .body() to convert it to required type

[gildor]

Ktor 1.x had all those top level methods like get/post/etc which return generic types, not anymore, all methods in Ktor 2.0 return now HttpRequest and you return required representation

Also see doc: https://ktor.io/docs/serialization-client.html#receive_data
