JSONPath Tester

JSONPath is a query language for extracting data from JSON, similar to XPath for XML. The expression $.store.books[*].title extracts the titles of all books from the store.books object. It is widely used in APIs, testing, and data processing.

Use [*] for all items: $.items[*] — all items in the items array. $.items[0] — the first item; $.items[-1] — the last item.

.. searches all nested objects. $..name finds every name field at any nesting level. Useful for searching deeply nested structures.

In AWS IAM policies, Kubernetes manifests, API testing (Postman, REST Assured), AWS Step Functions, jq filtering, Datadog configuration, and other tools.

JSONPath is an older standard with a $-based syntax. JMESPath is an AWS standard with stricter syntax. JSONPath is more widely used in the JavaScript ecosystem.
