Putting List Results into Objects

I am receiving a response from my server that looks like this:

[
    {
        "_id": "559d443abae4f14958f6a854",
        "owner": "559d4323bae4f14958f6a852",
        "__v": 0,
        "updated_at": "2015-07-08T15:39:38.370Z",
        "expiration_date": "2015-07-13T17:07:59.933Z",
        "address": "",
        "company": "",
        "problemCode": "",
        "devices": [],
        "active": true,
        "description": "",
        "ticketNumber": "",
        "coordinateY": "",
        "coordinateX": ""
    },
    {
        "_id": "559d4ffaddd30e5f585dd1cf",
        "owner": "559d4323bae4f14958f6a852",
        "__v": 0,
        "updated_at": "2015-07-08T16:29:46.087Z",
        "expiration_date": "2015-07-13T17:08:00.287Z",
        "address": "",
        "company": "",
        "problemCode": "",
        "devices": [],
        "active": true,
        "description": "",
        "ticketNumber": "",
        "coordinateY": "",
        "coordinateX": ""
    }
]

I need to be able to put these results into a RecyclerView of objects that I can edit. What is the best way to do this?

You should create an Java class which contain the field in the response from Server and then use Gson lib to parse it. Refer this tutorial for details.

I'm not going to say this is the best way to do it, but you can accomplish this by using retrofit which is what I use 90% of the time. Using retrofit, you can convert your json to POJO's automagically. Then you can use those POJO's as the data for your recyclerview. Essentially, you will have a List<MyObject> that you can pass from retrofit to the Recycler View's adapter.
