What data type does the get method of the JsonPath class in Rest Assured return?

The get method of the JsonPath class in Rest Assured returns an object of type Object, which can be cast to the required type depending on the JSON structure and expected data. Usually, this could be String, Integer, List, Map, etc. For example, if the path points to a string value — a String will be returned; if it points to an array — a List.
