I’m trying to respond with JSON while following <https://ktor.io/docs/creating-http-apis.html#dependencies|with these dependencies on my project> . However I cannot import `ContentNegotiation` . Am I missing a dependency?

How does your `build.gradle` file looks like? The following setup works for me:
```ext.ktor_version = "1.6.7"

dependencies {
    implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib"

    implementation "io.ktor:ktor-server-core:$ktor_version"
    implementation "io.ktor:ktor-server-netty:$ktor_version"
    implementation "ch.qos.logback:logback-classic:1.2.3"
    implementation "io.ktor:ktor-serialization:$ktor_version"

    testImplementation "io.ktor:ktor-server-test-host:$ktor_version"
    testImplementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-test"
}```

<@U017TSBJ2C9> `implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib"` is the only thing i’m missing and it’s not mentioned in the tutorials

Btw, the ContentNegotiation is from `io.ktor.features` package.

Do you mean to install the ContentNegotiation plugin?

yes it’s not mentioned anywhere in: <https://ktor.io/docs/creating-http-apis.html>

There are links for the template and final projects at the top

<https://github.com/ktorio/ktor-http-api-sample/blob/final/src/main/kotlin/com/jetbrains/handson/httpapi/Application.kt#L12>

I tried to do import io.ktor.features.* but the package is not in my classpath

Could you please share an archive with your project?

My ktor version is 2.0.0-beta-1 if that helps

Then you should consult <https://ktor.io/docs/eap/welcome.html|docs> for 2.0.0.

The documentation you mentioned is for version 1 of Ktor

<https://ktor.io/docs/eap/serialization.html#add_dependencies>

One more thing <@U017TSBJ2C9> I don’t know which `install` to import. There are a lot of options!

i retyped it and IntelliJ inferred it was from `io.ktor.server.application`
