json Arrays, START_ARRAY or BEGIN_ARRAY

Question

I am strugling with my first Ckan application and from the reading i did i choose to use Gson. From Ckan, for testing, i try to get the user list by http://192.168.1.2:5000/api/action/user_list This gives me

{"help":"http://192.168.1.2:5000/api/3/action/help_show?name=user_list",
   "success":true,
   "result":[
      {  "openid":null,
         "about":null,
         "display_name":"default",
         "name":"default",
         "created":"2015-06-09T22:17:22.228196",
         "email_hash":"d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e",
         "sysadmin":true,
         "activity_streams_email_notifications":false,
         "state":"active",
         "number_of_edits":0,
         "fullname":null,
         "id":"d5e49a3d-599d-49f3-9e20-826a03540357",
         "number_created_packages":0
      },    (..more data here...deleted for convenience)
      { "openid":null,
         "about":null,
         "display_name":"visitor",
         "name":"visitor",
         "created":"2015-06-09T22:16:52.785325",
         "email_hash":"d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e",
         "sysadmin":false,
         "activity_streams_email_notifications":false,
         "state":"active",
         "number_of_edits":0,
         "fullname":null,
         "id":"9d279d8a-c068-46a5-9516-ed9c8de2f13b",
         "number_created_packages":0
      }
   ]
}

My problem is how to read this using Java. What I did was

class JsonUserReply{
    public String help;
    public boolean success;
    public JsonUsers[] userArray;
    JsonUserReply(){}
}
class JsonUsers{
    public String openid;
    public String about;
    public String display_name;
    public String name;
    public String created;
    public String email_hash;
    public boolean sysadmin;
    public boolean act_email_notif;//"activity_streams_email_notifications"
    public String state;
    public int edits;
    public String fullname;
    public String id;
    public int numb_cre_packs;//"number_created_packages"
    JsonUsers(){}
}

I use the first class because the data provided is "some data, {array of Objects}".

Folowing some tutorials i used this:

Gson gson = new Gson();
Type collectionType = new TypeToken<Collection<JsonUserReply>>(){}.getType();
Collection<JsonUserReply> enums = gson.fromJson(host, collectionType);

This gives me an error on the fromJson command of:

Expected BEGIN_ARRAY but was STRING at line 1 column 1 path $

and the same error i get using this JsonUserReply myTypes = gson.fromJson(host,JsonUserReply.class);
Edit
JsonUserReply myTypes = gson.fromJson(host,JsonUserReply.class);
throws Expected BEGIN_OBJECT but was STRING at line 1 column 1 path $

while digging around i found and used this*

  url = new URL(host); //("https://graph.facebook.com/search?q=java&type=post");
  InputStream is = url.openStream();
  JsonParser parser = Json.createParser(is);
while (parser.hasNext()) {                 
                  Event e = parser.next();              
                   if (e == Event.KEY_NAME) {       
                       switch (parser.getString()) {
                       case "name":
                           parser.next();
                           System.out.println("Name "+parser.getString());                         
                           break;                   
                       case "result": 
                           System.out.println("RESULT1 "+parser.getString());
                           e=parser.next();                        
                           System.out.println("RESULT2 "+e.toString());             
                           break;
                       default: 
System.out.println(parser.getString());                        
                           break;
                       }
                   }

which even if it is way too complicated to use for my data as they are, it revieled something intresting. inside the case "result": i re-read the parser just to check whats its value. And it turns out that

RESULT1 result
RESULT2 START_ARRAY
RESULT3 START_OBJECT

To me that means that the json object is sending the data with the keyword"START_ARRAY" but Gson is expecting BEGIN_ARRAY. Am i right? apparently these two are not the same. how can i use the Gson way to get the array from my data? Thanks
