Tips & Best Practices

Use $ as the root

All JSONPath expressions start with $ which represents the root object. Use dot notation ($.store.book) or bracket notation ($['store']['book']).

Filter expressions are powerful

Use [?(@.price < 10)] to filter arrays. Combine filters with && and || for complex queries like [?(@.price > 5 && @.price < 20)].
