I have an json output like below.

[{"FoodName":"fish","image":"http://ckckc.com/images/60.png","loginname":"sss","time":"1525706184851","userid":"1","profile":"http://ckckc.com/profile/0.png","cuisine":"pomfret fry","wherefrom":"fish shop","locality":"xxx block ","random":"0869155d","id":"61","city":"","like":"0","follow":"profile"}]

I am getting this using StringRequest in Volley to get the response. Am using Gson library to parse and it was working fine. But suddenly i am getting the below error.

com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Expected BEGIN_ARRAY but was BEGIN_OBJECT at line 1 column 3 path $[0]

Am not sure whats went wrong. Gson code used to parseis mentioned below.

Gson gson = new Gson();

ArrayList<descusers> dusers = gson.fromJson(s, new TypeToken<ArrayList<descusers>>() {}.getType());

s is my response. I have cross checked all the values in the descusers and variables are matching. Please help.

Cleaned and Rebuild the project but no use. In error it mentioned as path.$[0] and i am not sure which objects it points.

Problem is not with your model class, issue is with your response you are expecting array to come from api but it is actually coming as object under which you will have array, can you show code to understand more about it ?

Instead of Json String request try to do it with Json Array Request that will return you Json Array

The problem is with the POJO class. I have created a new class without extending or implementing any and able to extract the data using the Gson.
