Jackson deserialization error: MismatchedInputException

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I have the following class

public class Cart {
    private final String id;

    public Cart(String id) { this.id = id;}

    public String getId() { return id; }
}

And the following test:

    String jsonString = "{\"id\":\"56c7b5f7-115b-4cb9-9658-acb7b849d5d5\"}";
    Cart cart = mapper.readValue(jsonString, Cart.class);
    assertThat(cart.getId()).isEqualTo("56c7b5f7-115b-4cb9-9658-acb7b849d5d5");

And I'm getting the following error:

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.MismatchedInputException: Cannot construct instance ofcom.store.domain.model.Cart (although at least one Creator exists): cannot deserialize from Object value (no delegate- or property-based Creator) at [Source: (String)"{"id":"56c7b5f7-115b-4cb9-9658-acb7b849d5d5"}"; line: 1, column: 2]

I can't figure out what's wrong here. Any help please?

You should add a normal constructor without any params like this:

public Cart() { }
