Kotlinx serialization - How to write a data class for an unknown field name

I try to write a data class for the following JSON response from a public API:

{
  "error": [],
  "result": {
    "AAVE": {
      "aclass": "currency",
      "altname": "AAVE",
      "decimals": 10,
      "display_decimals": 5
    },
    "ADA": {
      "aclass": "currency",
      "altname": "ADA",
      "decimals": 8,
      "display_decimals": 6
    },
    "ALGO": {
      "aclass": "currency",
      "altname": "ALGO",
      "decimals": 8,
      "display_decimals": 5
    },
    "ANT": {
      "aclass": "currency",
      "altname": "ANT",
      "decimals": 10,
      "display_decimals": 5
    }  
  }
}

My data class looks like:

@Serializable
data class AssetInfo (
        @SerialName("error")
        val error: List<String>?,

        @SerialName("result")
        val result: Result,

)

@Serializable
data class Result(
/*
Here is the problem, because the field "asset_name" does not exist.
*/
        @SerialName("asset_name")
        val asset_name: Asset,

)

@Serializable
data class Asset(
        @SerialName("altname")
        val altname : String,

        @SerialName("aclass")
        val aclass  : String,

        @SerialName("decimals")
        val decimals  : String,

        @SerialName("display_decimals")
        val display_decimals  : String,
)

In the data class "Result" the field name, that I declared as "asset_name" is different for every entry. How does the data class have to look like? Can someone help please?

There is no need in Result class. Your data classes should look like this:

@Serializable
data class AssetInfo(
    @SerialName("error")
    val error: List<String>?,

    @SerialName("result")
    val result: Map<String, Asset>
)

@Serializable
data class Asset(
    @SerialName("altname")
    val altname: String,

    @SerialName("aclass")
    val aclass: String,

    @SerialName("decimals")
    val decimals: Int,

    @SerialName("display_decimals")
    val display_decimals: Int
)
