I am new with ktor ,
Below is the nodejs code to return response with status code and json string (working fine and response is getting captured at client side)

res.status(200).json({"message":"foo","something":"something"})

I am trying to reproduce the same functionality with ktor and below is what i tried and it is not getting captured at client side, can someone please help me to wright it in ktor (in single line if possible )

call.response.status(HttpStatusCode.OK)
val item = ResponseJson("foo"  , "something")
call.respond(item)

    jackson {
        configure(SerializationFeature.INDENT_OUTPUT, true)
        registerModule(JavaTimeModule())
    }
}

Using Android as client side and getting following error
retrofit2.adapter.rxjava.HttpException: HTTP 406 Not Acceptable

sorry for confusing it by saying “not captured”

You may need to add those header to your http client: Content-Type=application/json

Accept=application/json
