Shame on me.. I try to parse a JSONN Array directly in my KMM setup with `ktor`and KotlinxSerializer and I don’t know how to define the Data class 😞

Exception

kotlinx.serialization.json.internal.JsonDecodingException: Unexpected JSON token at offset 1: Expected '{, kind: CLASS'
    JSON input: ["Albania","Argentina","Austral.....
        at kotlinx.serialization.json.internal.JsonExceptionsKt.JsonDecodingException(JsonExceptions.kt:24)
        at kotlinx.serialization.json.internal.JsonExceptionsKt.JsonDecodingException(JsonExceptions.kt:32)

Respnse

[
    "Albania",
    "Argentina",
    "Australia",
...
]

Data class

@Serializable
data class CountryDto(
    val names: ArrayList<String>?
)

API Call

suspend fun fetchAll() = client.get<List<CountryDto>>(baseUrl)

You are defining a list of lists, when you have a single list of strings

[Javier]

get<List<String>>
