Spring RestClient与Jackson嵌套JSON处理：仅提取data数组问题

我有一个Rest客户端，调用接口后会返回JSON格式的数据，现在希望仅提取其中的data[]数组。返回的JSON结构如下：

{ 
  "responseStatus": "SUCCESS", 
  "responseDetails": { 
    "limit": 1000, 
    "offset": 0, 
    "size": 2, 
    "total": 2 
  }, 
  "data": [ 
    { 
      "id": "00P000000001M01", 
      "name__v": "Foo", 
      "status__v": [ "active__v" ], 
      "abbreviation__c": "F170053", 
      "internal_name__c": "Foo", 
      "therapeutic_area__c": [ "neurology__c" ], 
      "external_id__v": "84", 
      "generic_name__c": "Foo", 
      "scientific_name__c": null 
    }, 
    { 
      "id": "00P000000001N01", 
      "name__v": "Bar", 
      "status__v": [ "active__v" ], 
      "abbreviation__c": "B333334", 
      "internal_name__c": "Bar", 
      "therapeutic_area__c": [ "bone_muscle_joint__c" ], 
      "external_id__v": "101", 
      "generic_name__c": "Bar", 
      "scientific_name__c": null 
    } 
  ] 
}

由于其他接口返回的data[]中字段会不同，我希望将每种类型映射到对应的POJO，因此使用了@JsonProperty和@JsonIgnoreProperties注解，定义了继承自VBase的Product类：

@JsonIgnoreProperties(ignoreUnknown = true)
public class Product extends VBase{
    private String fNumber;
    private String genericName;
    private String scientificName;
    private String therapeuticArea;

    public String getFNumber() { return fNumber; }
    @JsonProperty("abbreviation__c")
    private void unpackFNumber(Map<String,Object> abbreviation__c){
        fNumber = ((Map<String,Object>)abbreviation__c.get("data")).get("abbreviation__c").toString();
    }
    public void setLyNumber(String fNumber) { this.fNumber = fNumber; }

    public String getGenericName() { return genericName; }
    @JsonProperty("generic_name__c")
    private void unpackGenericName(Map<String,Object> generic_name__c){
        genericName = ((Map<String,Object>)generic_name__c.get("data")).get("generic_name__c").toString();
    }

    public String getScientificName() { return scientificName; }
    @JsonProperty("scientific_name__c")
    private void unpackScientificName(Map<String,Object>sName){
        scientificName = ((Map<String,Object>)sName.get("data")).get("scientific_name__c").toString();
    }

    public String getTherapeuticArea() { return therapeuticArea; }
    @JsonProperty("therapeutic_area__c")
    private void unpackTheraputicArea(Map<String,Object>tArea){
        therapeuticArea=((Map<String,Object>)tArea.get("data")).get("therapeutic_area__c").toString();
    }
}

我尝试了多种方式想直接获取data[]：

HttpEntity<MultiValueMap<String, String>> request = new HttpEntity<>(map, headers);
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate(clientHttpReq);
ResponseEntity<Product[]> response = restTemplate.exchange(url, HttpMethod.GET, request,Product[].class);
//ResponseEntity<Product[]> response = restTemplate.postForEntity(url,request,Product[].class ,parmMap);

我一直想避免创建包含Data[]字段的ResponseDetail POJO（虽然这种方式可行），但因为不同接口返回的data[]字段不同，我想知道能不能用一个包含List的通用包装类来表示data[]，而且所有POJO都继承自VBase？

目前遇到的异常如下：

Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.web.client.RestClientException: Error while extracting response for type [class [Lcom.lilly.models.Product;] and content type [application/json;charset=UTF-8]; nested exception is org.springframework.http.converter.HttpMessageNotReadableException: JSON parse error: Cannot deserialize instance of com.lilly.models.Product[] out of START_OBJECT token; nested exception is com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.MismatchedInputException: Cannot deserialize instance of com.lilly.models.Product[] out of START_OBJECT token at [Source: (PushbackInputStream); line: 1, column: 1]
