JSONPath

JSONPath Tester

Query JSON data locally with a safe JSONPath subset.

Input

Provide JSON and a JSONPath expression.

JSON

JSONPath

All processing happens locally in your browser. No input is sent to a server.

Limits: JSON 500KB, path 1024 bytes, node visits 50000, results 1000

Results

0 results · 0 node visits

Run a query to see matched results.

What

JSONPath Tester definition

JSONPath is a path query syntax to select values from JSON documents.

Cases

Use Cases

Find target fields in large JSON payloads

Debug API response structures

Validate path expressions

How To

How to test JSONPath

Paste JSON and evaluate a path expression.

Paste JSON

Paste your JSON payload in the input panel.

Enter JSONPath

Type a JSONPath expression such as $.store.book[*].author.

Run query

Run the query and copy matched path/value pairs.

Knowledge

Understanding JSONPath

What is JSONPath?

JSONPath is a path language to navigate and query JSON data structures.

Root and properties

$ represents the root. Use .name or ['name'] to access object properties.

Array access

Use [index] for a specific element or [*] for all elements in an array.

Recursive descent

..name recursively finds matching properties across descendants.

Security model

Excluding script evaluation keeps querying deterministic and safer in-browser.

FAQ

JSONPath Tester FAQ

Which syntax is supported?

$ , .name, ['name'], [index], [*], ..name, ..* are supported.

Do you support filters like [?()]?

No. Filter/script expressions are intentionally excluded for security.

Is my JSON uploaded?

No. Parsing and evaluation run only in the browser.

What happens when results are huge?

Traversal/result limits stop execution safely.

Is there a path-length limit?

Yes. Path input is limited to 1KB.

What if I use unsupported syntax?

You will get a clear parse error message.

How do wildcards work?

[*] and .* iterate over all direct children of the current node.

Is recursive search expensive?

Yes. On large JSON trees, recursive queries can quickly hit visit limits.
