How It Works

1

Paste JSON Data

Enter your JSON data from an API response, config file, or any source. Or use the sample data.

2

Enter JSONPath Expression

Type a JSONPath query like $.store.book[*].title to extract specific data from your JSON.

3

Run and Review Results

Click Run Query to see all matching results with their full paths and values.

Tips for JSONPath Queries

Start Simple

Begin with $ to see the full JSON, then add path segments one at a time ($.store, $.store.book, etc.) to build your query.

Use Wildcards

The * wildcard matches all elements at a level. $.store.book[*].title gets all titles without specifying array indices.

Case Sensitive

JSONPath is case-sensitive. $.Store.Book won't match $.store.book. Double-check your property names.

Frequently Asked Questions

JSONPath is a query language for JSON, similar to how XPath works for XML. It uses expressions like $.store.book[0].title to navigate and extract data from JSON structures. Key symbols include $ (root), . (child), [] (array index), * (wildcard), and ?() (filter).
JSONPath uses expressions like $.store.book[0].title to navigate JSON. Key symbols include $ (root), . (child), [] (array index), * (wildcard), ?() (filter). For example, $.store.book[*].title gets all book titles from the store.
Yes! JSONPath supports filtering with expressions like $.store.book[?(@.price < 10)] to find books priced under $10. The @ symbol refers to the current item being evaluated.
Yes! JSONPath supports recursive descent with the .. operator. For example, $..author finds all author values anywhere in the JSON structure, regardless of nesting level.
Yes! You can combine conditions using logical operators like && and ||. For example, $.store.book[?(@.price < 10 && @.category == 'fiction')] finds cheap fiction books.
Common functions include length(), min(), max(), sum(), avg(), and keys(). These can be used within filter expressions or as part of your JSONPath query.
Yes, absolutely. All processing happens directly in your web browser using client-side JavaScript. Your JSON data is never uploaded to our servers or any third-party services.
