Frequently Asked Questions
What is JSONPath?
JSONPath is a query language for JSON, similar to XPath for XML. It allows you to specify paths to elements within a JSON document using dot notation, brackets, wildcards, and filter expressions. Starting from the root ($), you build expressions to navigate to exactly the data you need.
How do I copy a matched path?
When your JSONPath expression returns results, the matched paths are shown as clickable chips above the output. Click any path chip to copy it to your clipboard instantly.
What JSONPath features are supported?
This tool supports property access ($.field), bracket notation ($['key']), array indexing ($[0], $[-1]), array slicing ($[0:3]), wildcards ($[*]), recursive descent ($..field), and filter expressions ($[?(@.age>25)]).
What JSON types are shown?
The tool handles all JSON types: objects, arrays, strings, numbers, booleans, and null values. Results are displayed as formatted JSON with syntax highlighting.
Can I use this with API responses?
Yes! Copy the JSON response from your API testing tool, browser dev tools, or Postman and paste it into the input panel. Use JSONPath expressions to quickly extract the specific data you need.
