JsonMappingException: token atual não START_OBJECT (necessário para desembrulhar o nome raiz 'Transação []'), mas START_ARRAY

Estou usando o Spring'sRestTemplate consumir oAPI Chargify, usando JSON como o formato de carga útil. Ele vem indo muito bem, no entanto, quando eu tento obter uma matriz de objetos falha miseravelmente. Por exemplo, considere o seguinte:

Transaction[] transactions = restTemplate.getForObject(
        CHARGIFY_ENDPOINT + "/subscriptions/{subscription}/transactions.json",
        Transaction[].class,
        subscriptionId
    );

O GET real vai bem, com uma resposta JSON de:

[ { "transaction" : { "amount_in_cents" : 3006,
    "created_at" : "2012-06-17T16:32:05-04:00",
    "ending_balance_in_cents" : 0,
    "id" : 17283728,
    "kind" : null,
    "memo" : "",
    "payment_id" : null,
    "product_id" : 120387,
    "subscription_id" : 1947292,
    "success" : true,
    "transaction_type" : "payment",
    "type" : "Payment"
      } },
  { "transaction" : { "amount_in_cents" : 5900,
    "created_at" : "2012-06-17T16:32:05-04:00",
    "ending_balance_in_cents" : 3006,
    "id" : 17283727,
    "kind" : "baseline",
    "memo" : "Professional Plan (06/17/2012 - 07/17/2012)",
    "payment_id" : 17283728,
    "product_id" : 120387,
    "subscription_id" : 1947292,
    "success" : true,
    "transaction_type" : "charge",
    "type" : "Charge"
      } },
  { "transaction" : { "amount_in_cents" : -2894,
    "created_at" : "2012-06-17T16:32:03-04:00",
    "ending_balance_in_cents" : -2894,
    "id" : 17283726,
    "kind" : "prorated",
    "memo" : "",
    "payment_id" : null,
    "product_id" : 120387,
    "subscription_id" : 1947292,
    "success" : null,
    "transaction_type" : "adjustment",
    "type" : "Adjustment"
      } },
  { "transaction" : { "amount_in_cents" : 2900,
    "created_at" : "2012-06-17T15:17:07-04:00",
    "ending_balance_in_cents" : 0,
    "id" : 17281084,
    "kind" : null,
    "memo" : "",
    "payment_id" : null,
    "product_id" : 120386,
    "subscription_id" : 1947292,
    "success" : true,
    "transaction_type" : "payment",
    "type" : "Payment"
      } },
  { "transaction" : { "amount_in_cents" : 2900,
    "created_at" : "2012-06-17T15:17:06-04:00",
    "ending_balance_in_cents" : 2900,
    "id" : 17281083,
    "kind" : "baseline",
    "memo" : "Standard Plan (06/17/2012 - 07/17/2012)",
    "payment_id" : 17281084,
    "product_id" : 120386,
    "subscription_id" : 1947292,
    "success" : true,
    "transaction_type" : "charge",
    "type" : "Charge"
      } }
]

No entanto, quando Jackson tenta desserializar o JSON, isso resulta emJsonMappingException: Current token not START_OBJECT (needed to unwrap root name 'Transaction[]'), but START_ARRAY:

Eu me deparei com essa questão antes com Jackson, e depois de passar alguns dias de pesquisa acabei indo por uma rota diferente. Isso não é uma opção desta vez, e não estou tendo sorte em descobrir uma solução.

Alguma ideia? Eu não me importo se eu conseguir uma matriz ou umList de volta. Eu não tive sorte com qualquer um.

Enquanto lia os documentos de Jackson, vi onde você deveria conseguir incluir a lista, ou seja,new TypeReference<List<Transaction>>(), mas eu também não tive sorte.

BTW, por causa de como Chargify formata suas respostas JSON meu RestTemplate é configurado com um personalizadoObjectMapper que define essas opções:

configure(SerializationConfig.Feature.WRAP_ROOT_VALUE, true);
configure(DeserializationConfig.Feature.UNWRAP_ROOT_VALUE, true);

Quando eu removo essas opções, nãoJsonMappingException é jogado no entanto todos os campos do resultanteTransaction objetos são nulos.

Eu também tentei adicionar essa opção, mas não parece ajudar:

configure(DeserializationConfig.Feature.USE_JAVA_ARRAY_FOR_JSON_ARRAY, true);
