Double-click the element’s value to generate its corresponding JSONPath
How to get the JSONPath ?
To get the JSONPath of an element in your JSON data, simply double-click on the element’s value.
If you click on the attribute name, the generated JSONPath will correspond to the parent element, not the element itself.
After a double-click, the corresponding JSONPath is generated in the result editor.
You can then easily copy it to the clipboard for use elsewhere.
JSONPath builder
This JSONPath generator lets you quickly retrieve the JSONPath of any element in your JSON data. It’s a simple little tool, but it saves you from having to manually navigate the entire structure or count which element you’re on. Super convenient!
As a bonus, it’s much faster than asking a generative AI, especially for large JSON files (That said, I have to admit, generative AIs can do a lot of things really well, and I honestly can’t live without them these days…).
JSONPath: What is it and what is it used for?
JSONPath is a query language for navigating and extracting data from JSON files, a bit like XPath for XML (RIP… just kidding, I still use it sometimes ^^). It makes it easy to locate specific elements or values within a JSON structure, whether simple or very complex. With JSONPath, you can quickly retrieve specific fields, traverse arrays, filter objects based on certain conditions, and automate access to your data, making it especially useful for development, API testing, or data analysis.
