Trying to get a list with the Typesafe config library

I try to get a list from a config according to this example: How to get a list with the Typesafe config library

However, I get following exception:

Exception in thread "main" com.typesafe.config.ConfigException$WrongType: application.properties @ file:/xxx/application.properties: configYYY has type STRING rather than LIST
    at com.typesafe.config.impl.SimpleConfig.findKeyOrNull(SimpleConfig.java:159)
    at com.typesafe.config.impl.SimpleConfig.findOrNull(SimpleConfig.java:170)
    at com.typesafe.config.impl.SimpleConfig.find(SimpleConfig.java:184)
    at com.typesafe.config.impl.SimpleConfig.find(SimpleConfig.java:189)
    at com.typesafe.config.impl.SimpleConfig.getList(SimpleConfig.java:252)
    at com.typesafe.config.impl.SimpleConfig.getHomogeneousUnwrappedList(SimpleConfig.java:323)
    at com.typesafe.config.impl.SimpleConfig.getStringList(SimpleConfig.java:381)

How can I get a list from typesafe? Below are my test code:

class Test extends FlatSpec {
  "Test" should "be about to get list" in {

    val configFactory = ConfigFactory.load();
    var disabledExtension = configFactory.getStringList("disabledExtension");
    assert(2==disabledExtension.size());
    assert(disabledExtension.get(0).equals("SH"));
    assert(disabledExtension.get(1).equals("ST"));
  }
}

And below my application.properties:

disabledExtension = ["SH", "ST"]

application.properties has to be application.conf

Any property in "*.properties" file would be read as a string.
